Do you think Daddy will read me a story while I relax here on the couch? Ooo, Blue Hat, Green Hat...one of my favorites! What a silly turkey!  (In the book...not Daddy!)

Both Bruce and Evan can answer "Yes!" to that question!

Evan has been doing a lot of accessorizing lately.  Most of his accessories are a bit unconventional but silly and fun! A zipper bag for a hat, wrist braces as sleeves and a tripod as a microphone Wearing Daddy's slippers and using Gramma's shoes as "paddles". Bringing a wrist brace to Mommy for her "paddle". This is how I found...

Is it really only April 17th?  That’s what the calendar reads but I think Mother Nature is a little confused.  Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining at all.  In fact, we love it!  Evan and I have spend the better part of the last two days outside in the pool and playing in the yard.  What a great early...

We took Evan on seven round trip flights before his second birthday.  It was great to be able to travel so much with him without paying for a ticket for him.  Tonight as we were unpacking from our weekend in Rhode Island, Evan gave me a good idea for a way to get a few more free flights.  Just pack...

And as if the video wasn’t cute enough, the story that goes along with it, in my opinion, is even cuter! Thursday night just after we finished dinner, Evan and I had the following conversation.

Gramma and Papa are home from Florida!  I’m not sure who is more excited…the little boys or the big kids?!?!  Either way, we are all glad that they had such a nice winter in Florida and that they made it home safely.   Sitting in Papa's lap, watching Twinkle, Twinkle...so glad to have Papa & Gramma home!

Happy Easter, everyone!  Was the Easter Bunny good to you?  As was the case last year, the Easter bunny was very good to Evan.  He left Easter treats for Evan at various homes in Rhode Island and Massachusetts.  We all had a fun day hunting for eggs, visiting with family and playing with the little ones. Photo slideshow from the...

No major events to report…Just a lot of silliness!! Photo slideshow from the original blog. The slideshow service (Picasa/Flash) has been discontinued, so these photos can no longer be displayed here. Just before I started taking this video, Evan was singing Happy Birthday to Danny while wearing his birthday crown. He stopped singing and started wondering who was missing (all...
