Xander and Clare

Building garages out of his magna-tiles he got last year from Grandma Mary. A several-times-a-day occurrence.


And why does one build garages? To then remove from them the garbage cans, which are then taken to the curb and back. Over and over and over.


Xander's commentary on Mommy's housekeeping standards when Daddy is out of town for work.


Watching a new episode of Yo Gabba Gabba on the laptop. Someday he'll look at this photo and laugh that we had to watch television shows on computers plugged into walls. Wait until I tell him there were only four channels on TV -- and no laptops at all -- when Mommy and Daddy were four years old.




Clare playing with Xander's fire station can mean only one thing:
Xander is at preschool.




Grinning at Mommy.


Working very hard.
