"My brain feels like it is going to come out of my head."

Carson, age 4, on his low-grade fever and, apparently, his headache.

Take Me Out to the Ball Game, by Wesley

Heeeeeeere's Carson !

btw, when Carson mentions "shooting game" he's talking about a game on the wii.

Swimming with Daddy on Father's Day

I DID IT!

Carson, receiving his school gift and certificate. Totally priceless.

"Graduation", of sorts

The boys will each have 3 graduations from their current school... one after the 4s, one after the 5s (pre-k) and one after Kindergarten. "Luckily, that means 5 attendances at KIPS&K Graduation.

At Carson's Graduation last week, his class performed a few "acts". Led by Ms. Dot, he loved being on stage.

















Carson's teacher, Ms. Dot, who retired the evening of graduation.

Wesley's BooBoo

Yes, he fell. No, not stitches. Its Dermabond, a liquid stitch that made our life SO much easier. (thank you, Stuart!)

First Day/Last Day Pictures

You may recall that every year we photograph the kids on their first and last days of school. Here's the post of last year's pictures of Carson.

And now that another year of school has ended (and Wesley's first year!), we'll add to the collection:

Lets Get Cookin'

Today, Steve asked Wes if he wanted to make brownies, and without an answer Wes disappeared. Came back about 3 minutes later from the kithen with his Bailey Bea original apron and tools. Ready to work!

Had to show off Nancy's aprons--we love all of ours'!

Thinking Inside the Box

We joined the Barton's and other friends for a very fun day at Hershey Park last month. A few favorites:

Yes, there are more

Yes, I'll try to post more pics soon. I do have some from Hershey.

Ummm... Carson? Did you forget something?

An e-mail thread between me and Marci (Julia and Harry's mom) today, titled "Carson's Here".

Thanks!! He thought it would be much better to play with Julia than to play another round of Connect Four. (and so did I!)

No. he is wearing his Keen’s and he has no pants on.




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Apparently, when I suggested Carson bring some books to Julia after he put on his shoes and shorts, he only caught the first 2 parts of the instructions. Marci said when he showed up at her door she asked if he had forgotten something? Only then did he look down and realize he ran over (3 houses) in a t-shirt and underpants.
