Blankie

Caitlin has a favorite "blankie" that she sleeps with every night, every nap, and drags through the house all day long. I looked at it and told her it needed to be washed and she looked straight at me and said "You leave my blankie alone."

Happy Fifth Birthday!

Happy Birthday Conall!

Love,

Mommy, Daddy, and Caitlin

Thanks again Na Na for bringing me her copy of these photos -- mine are in a frame of 7 photos on the wall -- not easy to get to.

Photo With a Blanket

I was taking photos of the kids playing "party" while jumping on my bed the other day, when Conall asked me to take his photo. He kept insisting that I take his picture with him holding the blanket up to his face. I think he was trying to pose like he did in the professional print I have of him playing with his blanket. Silly boy!

Two Kids, Two Recliners

We have a cute picture of Conall as a toddler sitting in Po Po's recliner with a blanket on his head. Po Po was out of town and Conall decided to use the recliner in his place.

This weekend, Caitlin climbed up in Pop Pop's recliner with a blanket on her head. Pop Pop teased her about taking his chair and tickled her.

Here are photos of them both (at close to the same age) in two different recliners at two different houses. Funny, huh?
