Des being a big helper in his family, making his PB&J for tomorrow’s lunch

Stop. Mango time.

Feeling left out of all the dinnertime photos, here’s a random pic of Des eating a carrot.

Be weary of the Soap Monster

First avocado

Bright eyes chewing on some cold keys

As family tradition would have it, Eleanor launched her food voyage with an avocado

…though still amused by spoons.

Judging from her brother, it’ll probably be a few months anything doesn’t promptly exit her mouth, but it’s a fun phase nonetheless.

This is Demond self-applying bubbles to his face so he can dump a cup of water on himself to rinse. And apparently it was hilarious.

Getting pretty good at the waffle making

Eleanor enjoying baths more and more these days. Not quite reliable enough at sitting to abandon the baby tub yet.

Upgraded to big brother’s bath towel

She’d prefer something to chew on over stuffed animals, but Des got a kick out of her sitting in his bed

Outfit complete.

Everyone joined dad in the garden prepping the beds for planting soon. Des was distraught over Max stealing his stick, so the plastic fence posts were a new favorite.

Ella just chilling in the breeze

Since he could barely walk, deadlifts have been a hobby. The sparkling water keg here is empty, but still sizable.

Many months ago, Des appeared to be done with bubbles. His little toddler OCD was just starting to kick in, and bubbles represented pollution to his boats and assorted bath toys. Pulling the bubble bath out again, you’d think he’d never seen bubbles in the bath before. To put it another way, Des was “back on” bubble baths.

Eleanor catnapping peacefully as Dad picks up from daycare

Easter egg dying techniques: kool-aid tip from ma, whisk handle from the interwebs. Who knew a dozen years later, those Wakarusa Festival cups would be egg-dying vessels?

Des scoping out the next color…

Eleanor supervising

After all the eggs are dyed, and keeping with this week’s scientific method curriculum, Des running experiments on combining colors. Or just playing with colored water, who knows

Surveying his results

With  mutual interest, two pals fighting over sticks.

Washing up after a rousing verse of “Little Buddy Foo-foo”

St. Patrick’s Day 2017

Life is so hard

Des and aunt Kellie synchronizing the opening of their St. Patrick’s Day musical cards (thanks grandma!)

There might be a tooth hiding in there somewhere. Either way, finger = good.

Not everything is a kodak moment- here’s baby sister screaming her adorable little head off during bath time

Des and Cal attempting the worlds worst jigsaw puzzle. Yeah right, good luck kids

Winding down the evening quietly…

Tummy on tummy time

Big brother outside stockpiling snowballs down by the garage, only to stomp on the them later

Time to warm up and read some Little Engine

When it was just the swan, duck and big duck, you could not tell this kid that the mama duck usually swims in front

All ready for PJs
