Chris: Nuggets and fries! Nuggets and fries!
Me: Chris, stop kicking my chair, or you won’t get nuggets and fries.
Michael: Mama, Chris is silly.
Me: Yes, Mike, Chris is silly.
Michael: Mama, Chris is silly with Miss Adrienne (their daycare lady). Chris gets time-out.
Chris: Michael! Stop!
Me: Did he really just tell Mike to stop telling on him?? Wow!

Both Mike and Chris are into Big Block Sing Song big time right now, and Mike’s favorite video is Happy. He loves it so much that he often will urge me to sing it with him, or spontaneously break into song on his own.

Mike and Chris had a spectacular time at the Strawberry Festival in Oxnard. We’ve lived in the area for the past five years, yet we’d never gone, so we decided now that the boys were both mobile, we’d take them. We didn’t bring a stroller so they would both walk, so I spent a lot of time holding on to Chris, who just wanted to run wild. Most of the good photos are from Trinity. But, mission accomplished — before we even got on to the shuttle back to our car, Chris was passed out on my shoulder.

This is what happens when boys wake up too early. From this picture, I can tell that Chris woke up first, threw everything out of his crib then climbed out.

Then Chris, with the window stick, climbed onto his dresser, knocked over the changing pad and somehow got stuck.
