A good time was had by all at the playground.

Yay for family snowball fights!

Mmmmm.

Cute picture, until you realize that he was actually afraid of the goose.

He made a train. Out of boxes. He's an engineering genius.

Abby lost her first tooth a few weeks ago! (She later managed to out it back into her mouth and swallow it. And, she has since lost her second).

The strong man has escaped from the circus. Please close and lock all doors, and leave all bags of oranges out for him to devour.

(slurp)

Abby's really getting the hang of how to help Mommy cook!

The First Real Snow Of Winter!

We had our first real snow of the year a few months ago, and it was Sean's first time out for real in snow. He and Abby both had a great time -- Sean played and ate lots of snow, and Abby went sledding out front and learned how to have a snowball fight.

They were both super-excited!

I taught Abby how to make a good snowball...

... and how to throw them. She got pretty good at it!

Not sure what she's making.

He's very little. And he loves New York.

The old man trudges out to the garage to shovel.

Abby makes a mean snow angel.

(That sounds paradoxical, doesn't it?)

Seanie tried sledding. He's really not into it yet.

Yum!

Really, they're still very small. Especially in a big bed.

Trip To The Pax River Naval Base Air Museum

One Saturday a few months ago, we visited a small naval museum down here in Southern Maryland. I loved jet fighters when I was a kid, and, well... the kids liked playing on the fuel truck (as you'll see).

We got to see lots of cool jets and planes, but I won't bore you with pictures of those. You're after the family pictures, right?

Abby didn't quite know what to make of sitting in a jet fighter seat...

... but Sean got a big kick out of it.

Drivin' the truck.

Sweetie.

This could be an ad for the good people at Taco Bell.
