Ruby says "stop hitting us with your drumstick Rosie". She has a very whippy tail.

Winter is cold.  The end.

Kids

One thing I think I will always remember about childhood is the yelling of slug bug in the car.  My kids now do this too.  The only difference is that they do not actually slug each other like Maxwell and I did as kids.  My children, especially Olivia have systematically memorized where all of the slug bugs are in the neighborhood and will call them out, even half asleep.  Occasionally this causes fights because Olivia will call them out before she sees them but also sometimes they save some for little Ruby to call out so she isn't left out of the game.  I love the sense of altruism... Even in a silly invented game.  

My brothers dog is a glorious beast

Visiting mom at work

Visiting me requires frog pajamas, sparkly boots and tutus.  Forever...

Olive's birthday

12 is full of lava lamp and hair chalk.  Happy birthday my tiny little human.
