March and April Photos

Mr Nap Skipper

He was face down 3 minutes later but then too upset about it to take a pic

Efficient kid storage



This kid loves her dogs





This puddle was pretty gross and filled with dead worms

Nobody seemed to mind but me






Dog costumes fit 1-3 year olds, btw



Not sure how much of Lyra's current obsession with vehicles is due to Moss's influence, but it's big



Mud kitchen



Double helix curl


Very much in a Daddy phase


Teamwork

This dissolved into an epic battle for bucket control not 5 minutes later

Ly does jewel tones

Don't wanna get up



Evenings with Moss


More mud. At least the drought is over-ish





Ladybug Boy and Bumblebee Girl?

Eeeeeee

Eeeeeee

Science with the Trofatters


I love how pictures make it look like they get along...



She can't/won't/shan't keep hairties in 


Moss is enthralled by The Human Body Encyclopedia, Lyra is tired and manic but happy






Mini-Lisa

A cold day in the sandbox






More creek-stomping





PREEEECCIOUS





Again, they get along so well on film.

I could not choose just one from this series, sorry









Strike a pose

Mr Naked the Younger

Moss started potty training this week. He's really gotten into it and is doing a near perfect job. Tonight after bath time, he dropped trou and announced that he was going to pee on his potty. The deed done, I picked up the bowl and started toward the bathroom.

"Moss, grab your shorts and come with me if you want to flush."

"NO! I DON'T WANT TO!"

Flushing had up to now been an exciting activity. Apparently that time has passed.

"Wait. Do you not want to grab your shorts or do you not want to flush?" I asked as he ran by me on his way toward the bedroom.

"I don't want to wear clothes." He stopped in the doorway and looked back over his shoulder with a wicked smirk. "I always want to be naked!" With that, he raised both hands high and slapped them in perfect sync down on his groin with none too subtle air of self satisfaction.
