Boats and The Mommy Monkey

This week we went to see the boat races! It was very exciting (all day Monday we saw boats everywhere.). We got to see Grandpa Bill and Grandma Linda, and we hung out in a big tent!


Last night at bedtime, Mommy decided to pull out a monkey puppet. The Mommy Monkey is now Danae's best friend. Daddy cannot work the monkey correctly, only Mommy can do it right. And she has to do it all the time. Mommy's hand is a little sweaty from all the hot Monkey action.



Guitar lessons are still progressing. Now we sing songs (like the potty song, or the song about Mit). Still working on chords though...

Sorry. No movies this week. We'll have a bunch next week though!

Beach, Money, Yardsales and Inside

We went to the beach today! It wasn't one of those spur-of-the-moment beach trips either. We brought buckets and shovels and even a towel!




We also helped Aunty Jen with her yardsale. No pictures of that though. Yardsales in Michigan can get pretty ugly.

We are also really into money. If we even hear change in Daddy's pocket we must have it. Not really great at putting money away though...

Chalk And New Friends (And Baby Foster Hangs Out)

This week we have become sidewalk artists. Daddy can't break away from representational form, but Danae has founded her own school we're calling Neo-Modern Minimalist Daddyism. You basically draw a line from an object (say, a car tire) to an undetermined point away from the object, while naming the object and then saying "Daddy".

We also hung out with baby Foster all day today! We even helped feed him ! The GGs had a very happy Birthday / Anniversery party.





Do you know who absolutely loves birthdays and the associated accoutrement?

Happy Birthday Grandma Fely, Happy Birthday Boy GG and Happy Anniversary Boy and Girl GG!

We're back. Daddy had a horrible tooth abscess and it took him right out of the picture. Feeling much better now though. We had a nice 4th of July (we slept through the really loud fireworks) but we got to light a sparkler. We made pee pee on the potty again!






Who is this lady and why is she up in my grill?
