Ella had a rough night with her cough and woke up with a temperature of 102. So, it was an early morning doctor visit for mom and dad.
Very fortunate to live close to family so Ma was able to watch Des for the morning. Plus, Eleanor was feeling better within a day or two.
Des sharing his airplane
Desmond’s first backpack (dinosaurs, of course)
Would not take it off.
Sister, in-between coughs 🙁
Seriously, would not take it off
Ella grabbed the ring on her own!
Fell asleep with her hand in the cookie jar
Doin’ her exercises
Max getting petted by anyone with spare attention
Mmmm, precisioncakes!
A boy’s first mickey mouse pancake
Dad’s got this down: holding daughter, supervising play-doh work.
This is not a puzzle for two-year-olds. Confusing puzzle even for dad-year-olds.
Sup?
Des and dad slicing garlic for chili tomorrow. Des demonstrated his leadership skills by pointing to mom and telling her to stir the onions.
Des mastering the lacing cards. $5 says he’s left-handed.
Up bright and early for breakfast at Dixie Quicks. Clearly need to go more often, as Desmond was confused when dad suggested pancakes with the dinosaurs.
Des wanted to enjoy his pancakes and berries in peace. “No pictures mommy. No pictures.”
The main attraction: model train expo. Several hours of staring at trains, he still hadn’t had enough.
Inspecting the snowmelt
Legos and leftover enchiladas
Baby sister reaching for the elephant
Baby sister finally sleeping, it’s a miracle.
Deep in the throes of the terrible twos, moments of sweetness with this boy.
