Francesca's sister

A lot of talk lately about this sister. Her name has been several
different things. She is various ages and lives in various places.
Today we are going on an airplane to see her.

Gymnast extraordinaire!

Go Francesca!!

Slide!

There's a lot going on in our park. . .

Sunny day!

Blaize hasn't been feeling great but he had a pretty good time at the
park. Francesca has had a terrific day of helping, following
instructions at gymnastics class and just being a sweet toddler.

Memories...

Of Molly and Francesca playing at Washington park.

Blaize is on top of the world!

Big boy!

Francesca can't wait to see Molly

Molly sent us a picture of herself in her flower girl dress this week,
and the girls said hi to each other on the phone. This touched off a
lot of talk about how Molly will get to our house and what Francesca
will do with her once she is here.

I miss this face!

When I'm gone all day. And another little face, not pictured here.
Francesca has started saying she wants me to stay home all day and
cuddle with her. Sigh ....

New stroller!

They love the new used stroller. Bad news: they both want to be in it nonstop.

Ring around the Rosy with Mama

Ashes! Ashes!

This is the tail end of a loooong session, where Blaize was laughing
hysterically every time upon falling. By the end I think he'd finally
had about enough.

So many ideas

Right now Francesca is talking about her idea to move all the toys.
Also, last night, Kermit the Frog and all the muppets slept over at
our house last night. They are very good house guests.

Sell!

What did I just say? SELL!

Blaize

At OMSI. Superfun!

Sweet!

This little stuffed sock cow was the first present from mommy and
daddy. Francesca likes it! I am trying to convince her the cow's name
is Violet.

Getting the tea to the right temperature is delicate business. Is it
cool enough to drink now, Grandmommy?

I couldn't have said it better myself.

Tea with Grandmommy. I say, it really is the perfect end to a fun day
for Francesca.
Francesca the Counting Machine!

These flash cards are totally rad.

Francesca revels in her birthday loot.

Who are you kidding?

No way! We love birthdays! Francesca is 3! Whoooooo
Hoooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Birthdays...

Who needs birthdays? So much fuss...
