summer!!

Jim received a fabulous trail-a-bike from the Greenies and the Wickes for his b'day. Here he and Charlie take it for a spin. I have to admit I'm a bit queasy when I see Charlie on it as it seems pretty wobbly to me and he seems so little. My 3 men assure me that "It's fine, Mama. Don't worry..." Okay. I won't. (Wah!!)

After slippin' and slidin' yesterday my fellas got into the sandbox. I love how they love each other. Le sigh!

Jay & Chars thought it was a good idea to add water to the sandbox. I thought it would be okay but wasn't really paying attention (I had a week old Us magazine in my clutches-- do you blame me?). Needless to say they FILLED the sandbox with water. What do you do in a situation like this? Well of course you call in your buddy from down the street. Our trusty little pal Simi is always willing to do the unthinkable. She donned her bikini and hopped into the fray. Jim played the part of McGyver after the boys were in bed and siphoned the water out. It's still a soggy, boggy mess but really, is DRY sand much fun to play with? Nah, I didn't think so.

Later peeps, I'm going to bed now.
