No Baby Like Brady

I was just going through some picture files and stumbled upon this cutie. This sweet thing is Brady. He is the son of one of my very best friends, Emily. Anyway, since it's suffocatingly hot these days, I was delighted to find this little snowman floating around in my pictures. He'll charm you within the first 3 minutes of meeting him. Most kids (like mine) are adorable in pictures or at least from a considerable distance, but this is a child you would genuinely look forward to dining with in a restaurant. Don't get me wrong, I'm crazy in love with my boys, but the last time we ate out Daniel was at the height of his "pick mommy's nose" fettish, and William ordered six peppermint patties for lunch. Just saw this picture and thought how refreshing to see a baby in the snow, and such a well behaved one, too. And here's one of just "mimosa" and myself, and then all three ya ya's. Love my girls!

A Day In The Life

We stayed home all day, built a fort with the kitchen table, ate popsicles, bowled with 10 water bottles weighted with a little rice, and made a "Thank you for the beach" card for Mimi which involved lots of glue and glitter and sadly turned out to be just a piece of paper with random splatters of glue and glitter. But as I take a little time to post this, I hear Will scream from the next room "OUCH! Mommy, Daniel just stuck his finger up my nose, slapped me in the face, then bit my leg." Is it wrong that that's the best part of my day?

1.) "Mommy, did you know that we are all children of God? Yeah, he's our Great Great Great Great awesomest Grandfather."
2.) "Daddy had a gross lunch! He had coupons all over his salad!"
3.) "Aghh! Why do we have to love each other so much?!"
