Dash, being Dash

Dash always brings his unique style to situations.  Lunch out wasn't quite right with just the eye patch and SuperMan shirt, but Ella's headband made it perfect.

There are 4....

"Mommy, look! There are one, two, three, four penises!"

Owl girls

I can't say no when my girl picks out matching outfits for us.

Thursday work

Ella's teacher always has a small activity for the students to work on when they arrive at school and are waiting for the start bell to ring.  I can't remember all of them but they are something like "Tune up Tuesday" (a chance to do one or two targeted math problems), "Word Search Wednesday", and "Think outside the box Thursday" when they are given a shape or form, and asked to make a picture around it.  Ella's teacher tells me this is her favorite activity of the week because it is so much fun to see what the kids come up with.  Ella brought home a few examples recently. The first is sweet and creative.  The second, well, you be the judge.

The perfect picture

This picture of Max goes in my file of most favorites.  I love his sweet profile and the fall light and the hand-me-down-from-big-bro hat.  I really really love this jolly baby.  Six months old already! Naturally, Ella is already planning his first birthday party...
