"I don't want to be called handsome!"

Today, I'd like to share a photo of our children's Easter ensembles. Because the chances of us getting a photograph in which they are both wearing these outfits, with simultaneous pleasant looks on their faces are very, very slim, and I would like to document the fact that they both do, in fact, have "fancy" Easter clothing.

Because these are our actual children:

You see the problem.

(PS: Happy Birthday to meeeee!)

Commercial

Burning the 9:00 oil.

Eva stayed up late last night, putting the finishing touches on her story. I can't wait to share this with you guys! Mike and I are so proud of her...and more importantly, she's extremely proud of herself. She keeps looking at me very seriously and saying, "Mama...this is really good."

Oh. That girl.

Bored.

Bowling Fun

Eva went bowling yesterday for the first time in her life...apparently, she LOVES bowling! She just needed one of her buddies to help convince her of that. Figures. (Anytime Mike and I have suggested bowling up to this point, she's been less than thrilled. I suppose I should get used to this, right?)

"Mama! Take my picture!"

Author at Work

Eva has big plans to enter (and win!) the PBS Kids writers contest, and she spent a good chunk of time working on her story yesterday. It's titled "The World Under the Bed," and she claims that the judges will love it, "if they like adventure!" I, for one, can not wait for this story to be finished...think good thoughts for our little writer, will you please?

Probably he's not going to be an engineer...

Poor Eva

Well, our girlie's sick. Poor thing. She's got a stomach thing going on...and the worst thing is it keeps toying with her. Just when she thinks she's feeling better...BAM! Another round. Hopefully a good night's sleep tonight will help get her back on her feet.
