Finally! A vacation with luggage!

"Time to go to school!"

"Just kidding! I'm too busy playing with Mommy to go to school!"

Still no luggage

"That fountain, Daddy! See that fountain! I want that fountain!"

"Are you SURE there is no swimming allowed?"

"Ok, I want to go over THERE then!"

"Yes, Mommy, I see the flowers. Are you SURE I can't trample them?"

"No worries! I'll find something else to destroy...er...I mean do!"

Days on Vacation = 3; With Luggage = 0

"Yawwwwwwwwwwwwn. I just woke up."

"Good morning, Puppy! I haven't pulled on your ears for HOURS!"

"GOOD MORNING, DADDY!!! Time to get UP!"

"It's tough getting this household moving in the morning. But so far, I have been very successful. I even convinced Mommy to make French pancakes for me."

Cuddles with Mommy.

Cuddles with Daddy (much more fun!)

Days on Vacation = 2; Days with Luggage = 0

"Mommy, why do you keep calling this a chair? It's not a chair! It's A LADDER!!!"

"Daddy's almost home! Time to turn on NPR!"

"It's Captain Spitty!!! Thank goodness the head-reattachment surgery was successful!"

"YES!!!!!!!!"

# of Days on Vacation = 1; # of Days with Luggage = 0

"Hi, Mommy! How are Grandma and Grandpa doing on vacation?"

"THE AIRLINE LOST THEIR LUGGAGE?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"

"We have to send them clothes! These look like something Grandpa would like!"

"OK! We found Turkey on the map! Let's GO, Jake!"

"Wait. How did I get roped into this? Is there steak in Turkey?"

A Hand-Me-Down Christmas

One little boy who loves his stuffed animals.

"Mommy, what do you mean, 'Sit down and use the table properly'? I AM using the table properly!"

Ian and Blueberry.

Ian went to visit his cousins yesterday and received bucket-loads of hand-me-down toys. He's a lucky boy.

"You dial, I'll talk. Wait, neither of us can talk! #$%#!!!"

"Mommy, what do you mean when you say, 'Only someone on drugs would come up with a rocking zebra that wears red tennis shoes'?"

"Thanks, Auntie Jenn! I love my new toys!"

The Great Sugar Incident

The first sign of trouble...

The perp leaves a fingerprint...and several handprints...

Actual footprints and a discarded powdered suger box.
This can't be good.

"Dum de dum, dum de dum..."

"HI!"

"What??? It's illegal to break into the pantry and take sugar out???"


"Oh, my! I had no idea!"

"This mess? This...stuff that SEEMS like powered sugar? Ummm..."

"It was him! The dog did it!"

"Still think you can work from home, Mommy?!"
