Lauren Recommends....

This random old Sesame Street clip called "Fat Cat" from 1973!  She calls the red-haired guy "Crazy Guy".

Nice Weather Finally!

Now that the weather is nice (even though it wasn't really a very cold winter) we can use our back yard again!  Here are the kids playing with the sand table and the slide and mini-house!  
Parker deep in thought.

 Focus..... Foooocuuuuus.........
Checking out what Parker is doing. 



Parker being suave. 
 Lauren hiding behind a pillow.


 Lauren loooooves the little house!

 Parker looks like a giant next to Lauren in this photo!
 Here.  A stick.
 OM NOM NOM NOM!
 Cute girl in a little dress.



 Kisses for baby Lauren!



 Parker wanted to take a photo of me.  Here's his first attempt.  I need a hair cut!
 Much better!
 Lauren also loves the slide!  And she climbs up the ladder by herself, which is kind of funny considering she doesn't like to walk by herself.


 When ever I ask Parker to pose for a photo, he does this weird pointing thing with his finger.  
 Cheeeeeeeese!

Playing At The Park With Hayden

Still catching up on old photos!  A while back (still wearing hats and mittens!) one of Parker's friends from school invited him to go to the park after dinner to play for a bit!  Here are a few photos of them goofing around.
 Cheeeeeeeese!
 Climbing the monkey bars.
"DADDY LOOK WHAT I CAN DO!!!!!!!!!!!!" 
 zomg no feet
Hayden and Ryan. 
 Running to get some more rocks to feed the alligators that obviously live in the sewer grates, because all alligators love to eat rocks.  And sometimes sticks.  But mostly rocks.
"Here we come, alligators!" 
 Looking at stuff.

Baby Cote and Trips to Dresden and Ajax

Here's a photo of Scott and Gemma's new (well, not-so-new any more!) little boy Cole!  For a while Lauren was calling him baby Cote instead of baby Cole, but I think she has it right now.
 Here's Lauren dressed in her Nana outfit.  She looks amused.
 Being cute. 

Playing with Brenna on the couch with a lion.


 HOOD.




 Parker's new thing is playing Super Mario on April's Nintendo DS.  He's actually getting pretty good at it!
Look at that concentration! 

 April and Lauren having a little rest in bed.
 On the way back home we stopped in to Ajax to meet Claire's new baby, Sarah!  While the baby was sleeping, me, Parker, Lauren, and Lita went to the park.  I think Lauren likes the swings.



 It was windy! 

 Parker turn the wheel, turn the wheel Parker!  (If you're a parent to a toddler you probably know exactly what that means and are now cursing my name for making you sing it in your brain)
I have a few more photos to post from my phone, I think, so I'll have to do that soon!
