After a couple of loud yells of "Daddy, Daddy, Daddy!" coming from Jacqueline in the bathroom, I opened the door. She was sitting on the little Lightning McQueen potty, and greeted me with a smile. Once again, as if she didn't have my undivided attention already, she repeated, getting incrementally more quiet, "Daddy, Daddy, Daddy!". I responded, "Yes honey, what do you need?" Then, in a way only Continue Reading...
Morning banter
This is just a sample of this mornings' banter. It could be any morning really. Jacqueline: I want to color. Me: Okay, you want to color, over here? Jacqueline: Ummm, no. I want to play cards for a while. Meanwhile, Theodore hearing that she wanted to color had grabbed a coloring book for her. As he sets the coloring book on their play table...

Photos from a hill in Sherman

We did see deer up on the hill and Continue Reading...
Quick pics – Vol. 1

I find it interesting that the stash of “fluff” was not only, not hidden, but was at an elevated view. Theodore is seen trying to return the “fluff” back to the pillow I think. Jacqueline was proudly guarding the stash. Meanwhile the victim Continue Reading...
A couple shots of the twins
I thought I would throw a couple of pictures of the twins in here today. Theodore loves to swing at Grammy's. If he could take his naps in the swing he probably would. Taken with my $0.99 phone. Theodore loves to swing at Grammy's house Jacqueline loves to walk around the yard at Grammy's house. It's especially rewarding as she generally holds on to a an adults' index finger and narrates in her Continue Reading...
