Baa Baa Black Sheep

Dexter likes to whistle while he works. Or I guess hum. Make sure you have some volume with this one.(PS- this one is a bit longer than usual. 2 minutes!)

When will we have some warm weather? Dexter is ready to shed the Elmo jacket.
Dexter, Martha, and I had fun at the Beverly Memorial Day parade...
Well, at least Dexter did until he sacked out in the wagon.

Dex experiences a new emotion...

irritation.


So the "Lil' Angels" came to daycare last week to put the kids in costume and take their picture. While the picture is pretty cute (albeit extremely cheesy), I don't think Little Man was terribly happy about the whole thing...





What do you think?

The end of the school year has been crazy as usual so I have nothing inspired to say, but I promised my world travelin' mother that I'd post some pics of the kid.

Fun in the woods

We spent this weekend in Michigan. Saturday was a gorgeous day. Dexter discovered the joys of throwing sticks and rocks into water.


We didn't get to do much else the rest of the day.


Also, he likes to climb at his Gram's house as much as at home.

Pizza +

I am lucky to have so much family that lives close by. Most Wednesday nights many of us meet at Pizza Plus to hang out. Last week it was my Aunt Maria's birthday so the attendance was high. As usual, the camera generally comes out. Dexter is beginning his career as a video game addict.

Happy Mother's Day!

To my mom, Jane...(I miss you already, but have fun on your trip!)

and Joel's mom, Martha...

and Grandma Welch...

and Mary Barr...

And for the Grandmas who can't be with us but we think of always...
Grandma Strong

and Joel's Grandma McGavic...(BTW, I have almost the exact same picture of me on a donkey with a swarthy/handsome Greek man.)

and Joel's Grandma Barr...

We love you all!

So we've been having more backyard fun lately.

We've added to the backyard plastic collection. It's kind of a three ring circus. And getting this backyard toddler swing was like finding the Holy Grail.



But of course, who had more fun with the box than the swingset?
