BIG boy bed!!

From Theodore Elial 2 Years

I'm sleeping in a BIG boy bed now! Even bigger than the bunk bed I used to share with Meredith! Meredith and Emmaline share a room now with the bunk bed, and I get my own room with a BIG bed. Don't worry, I won't fall off -- it is next to the wall and has a bed rail. No falling out for me!

From Theodore Elial 2 Years

I love my new bed! I especially love the dinosaur sheets Mama helped me pick out!

I like burgers!

From Emmaline Ruth 1 Year

And strawberries. And corn. And molasses cookies. And messy faces!

Tooth. Be Gone!

From Meredith Jane 4 Years

I actually lost my first tooth a while ago, but I needed to let you know! (again!)

Will you be my Valentine?

Will YOU be my Valentine?

Gilli: "Yes, as long as you leave the futon mattress on the floor!"

Looth Tooth

From Meredith Jane 4 Years

I have a looth tooth, I mean loose tooth! The omniscient (loose teeth gives you great knowledge and vocabulary) internet says some kids start losing teeth at age 4. Girls tend to lose their teeth before boys. Kids that get their teeth early tend to lose their teeth earlier. I guess that makes it okay for me to have a loose tooth at 4 and a half years!

From Theodore Elial 2 Years

Theo wants a loose tooth, but he's too young!

From Emmaline Ruth 1 Year

Emmaline is worried because she is still getting her teeth, and she didn't realize she would have to lose them too!

From Meredith Jane 4 Years

Let's get wiggling!

Noon Years Party

We go to bed early. We're kids, after all. So instead of ringing in the new year at midnight, we'll ring in the noon year at 12:00pm!

Horn blowers!

Poppers and great friends!

Big Girl Chair

I get to sit in the big girl chair at the dinner table now! Theo got a different booster chair, now I get to use his!
