Florida Vacation

We had a fantastic visit to Juno Beach with Nana, Bushkie and Kate.

 Charlotte with Sheldon the Sheep.

Pretty sure this is a classic game of "Diego and Alicia Rescue Animals."

 Lounging.

 Swimming.

Blizzard of 2013

 We got somewhere around 2 feet of snow.  

Here are some shots of our indoor and outdoor activities over 5 days 

of snow and school cancellations.

 The painter.

 The snuggle bug.

 Mountain climbing.

 Summit!

 A point of reference.

Charlotte found her hands.

Childcare Preparations

 With Allison heading back to work, we needed to make sure Charlotte would reliably take a bottle.  Here, Maya helps out...

 Here's Charlotte with Katie Rose.  Katie starts childcare about a month after Charlotte.

Elusive Charlotte Smiles

Capturing a smile is hard...these are the best attempts out of hundreds.

Fashion Alert

Before having a kid, I never understood what parents were thinking when they dressed their kids.  Now, I realize...the kids dress themselves.  

 

Fashion faux pas #1...never wear three different types of stripes together.

 Fashion faux pas #2...Xmas happens in December.  

Adelaide, looks quite fetching though, in her police helmet and boa.

Fashion faux pas #3....Diapers and socks don't work as well at 3 years as it did at 3 months.
