The picture of dd is mid-sneeze! It is hard to get my ds to even take a picture, so I often get pictures just like this one, with his hands over his face.

I really hope these go in sequence...

It's amazing that a 10 week old can go from happy, smiley, dimple face kid to full on tantrums in 2.5 seconds...

Thank you!

She was on a 3 hour schedule for a while but in the past couple of weeks she has been sleeping at night 4-5 hours without waking up, then eating and going right back to sleep...

This is how Hanna fell asleep last night. The other picture is Hanna reading to her dog. And making silly faces for the camera.

THERE ARE EIGHT DIFFERENT WAYS YOUR CHILD CAN DIE ON A CORDED WINDOW TREATMENT
Read "How Safe Cords Kill" at www.pfwbs.org

THREE CHILDREN HAVE STRANGLED TO DEATH SINCE ANGEL DIED ON 8/11/09.
Brandyn Coppedge died on 9/11/09. Rosie Smith died on 9/30/09 and Thapelo Kwofie died on 11/1/09. The Consumer Product Safety Commission is no longer recommending safety kits. They are now recommending that anywhere children live or visit should be free of corded window products.

Those are all great! 4-ever, that is a hilarious sequence.
I've got a sequence that has long been a favorite of mine too. I have it printed as a 12x36 and hanging in the living room. It makes me smile every time I look at it.
(I don't know how well you can see it though since I had to size it down so drastically).
