Baby and Baby Doll (both named Sam)

Spring is for Mud Puddles



Face to Face


At Sam's one month dr appointment, it was Josephine who wailed when he got his shot - "My baby! No need shot!"

Winter Baby in the Sun

And the mom jumped over the cow

We were in the kitchen chatting and making dinner when Josephine said, “Beavers talking!”

“What?” I asked, a little confused.

So Sean explained that on their trip to the park that day, they'd stopped by the creek and saw beaver dams - and learned then that beavers talk differently than other animals.

“For instance,” he said, “How does a cow talk?”

“Moo,” I said.

A pause. Sean: “Very good, Amy – but I was asking Josephine!”

I had seriously responded as if he were really asking me – we died laughing.

I obviously have gone over the edge...

... or not. The other day, I managed to have Jo help me bathe Sam rather successfully, and then she bathed her baby dolls, over and over and over (more like full-body baptisms), and then we washed the dog together, and we all felt "all clean."

Yesterday I took them both to the park. Josephine wore a "PAID" sticker from the grocery store over one eye, like some kind of capitalist pirate... it was a gorgeous day. I am so ready for spring!

Pizza Picnic Playgroup and more photos





I made all the kids show me their tongues for a photo of playgroup...

Sam is starting to wake up more, which means Jo is delighting in having a captive audience for her hijinks! It's fantastic to see her interacting with him so happily!
