Hanging out with the gorillas at the zoo.

Hanging out at the pub, eyes glowing.

George showing Linus some cicada shells he found when we went on a walk this afternoon.

(Am I going overboard with the black and white? Not to worry, my Lightroom trial expires in a few days, so no more artsy-fartsy stuff out of me for a while.)

Relaxing with Daddy on the sofa before bed.

Due to their obsession du jour (literally, they woke up this morning desperate for Curious George and the book where he makes pancakes) I agreed to make pancakes for the boys for dinner tonight. And (as I already posted on FB and was rightfully mocked for saying) DAMN, a griddle makes it a thousand times easier!

“Take that, shark!!!!”

Oliver saving us all from a shark attack with just a pool noodle. Thanks, Ollie!

Me and the boys at a friend’s son’s first birthday party. (Miles – Oliver – Linus)

Obviously I didn’t take the picture. And it’s black and white because that masked my makeup-less face better. Heh.

Today the boys had their awards ceremony at daycare (really, it was the older kids’ “graduation” so I guess they had to do something for the younger kids) and they were not happy that I had to sit with the mommies and they had to sit with the kids. Not happy at all.

(This is Linus. And check out my uber-moody black and whites I did of Miles and Oliver. Heh.)

Oliver says “yay!”

I got two pictures of the boys reading their Dinosaur books (The “How Do Dinosaurs…” series by Jane Yolen and Mark Teague – I adore these books, and have ever since I worked in the children’s department at Barnes & Noble eight years ago) today. This one won out to be the Picture of the Day because of Oliver’s face, mainly. (Oliver-Miles-Linus)

This morning’s picture is over here.

The boys were being so cute, “reading” this morning. If you want to see more (god forbid), there’s a longer video from this morning here.
