and the cute just keeps on coming

I took Harper to see my buddy Thad play in Nashville on Thursday. (If you like music, you should buy his new record.) Around 6:30, as Thad was starting, Harper got sleepy and asked to hop up on my shoulders. Midway through the second song she started tapping my shoulder excitedly. "Daddy! The music is waking me up!"

Life as we know it.

Wednesday's are water play day at Harper's school. So, naturally, today we sent her to school wearing a Dora swimsuit, Crocs and a towel in hand. I drove to school feeling quite proud of myself because I had actually remembered that today was Wednesday and therefore water play day without having to turn around half way to school. I like to give myself really big credit for really small feats.

Anyway, as the Phillies and I traipse into Harper's classroom looking like we could really use a shopping cart for all our loot (I am hauling Margot's car seat [ complete with Margot], Margot's bag of bottles, Harper's bag of extra clothes and Sleeping Beauty) I abruptly realize that Harper is the only child wearing a swimsuit. She turns to me and give me the classic, "MOM!" look as her teacher gently tells me that water play ended two weeks ago.

In other news, Margot is a complete insomniac. Honestly, I can't even begin to explain how frequently she wakes up through the night because no one would believe me. So, I won't. Thankfully she's precious so it's at least nice to visit with her all night long.

She also enjoys a little oatmeal cereal with carrots for dinner now.

A sister is a wonderful thing

Hey Look: Fresh Fruit.

Look at me!

Margot says, "Look at me! I'm four months old and as precious as I can be!"
