Vake, Huff and Taren went to see a presentation at the library yesterday that included a clown and a reading of "If I Ran the Circus" The clown handed out red noses to everyone. Vake was a little suspicious of the clown which sort of surprises me. Hmmm. Shades of Santa Claus I think.

Birthday Party Saturday!
One of Vake's friends from the Little Gym, Ellie, celebrated her second birthday today with an Elmo party, so Vake, Eric and I got to go!
Here's Vake carrying his present for the birthday girl!!!!
When he got there, a clown painted his hands with a truck and a train before lunch- what a treat!!!

Girl!!!!
Anne and Dennis got the great news today that they are having a LITTLE GIRL!!!!! How exciting. And probably evidence that the universe will foil those of us who thought we had a preference!!!!!
Anyway, what better way to celebrate that to go to KidsGrow- this cute cute cute consignment shop on the Northside. The woman who owns it knows that I have a sickness- she calls me anytime something smocked comes in in Vake's size. Now that we have a girl to buy for, it could be TROUBLE...
Cute little cherries on a tiny little bubble in blue striped seersucker.
Basically brandnew Willits "Freckles" shoes. LOVE THEM. Would buy them for MY fictional daughter.

Like Father, Like Son
Taren had today off (she was supposed to have the whole week off, but long story, her vacation's been postponed). Mom thank Goodness watched Vake so I didn't have to take the day off.
Here's what they were up to when I got home.
Vake had talked Gmary into skipping a nap and they were baking together.
You have to stir...

Mother's Little Helper
Vake and I have had a long 24 hours- Eric had to go to Washington yesterday to go to a dinner and poor Vake figured out that Taren was about to go on vacation and had a super tough day yesterday. He was incredibly clingy and then of course I had a substitute babysitter last night and THEN the poor child had a substitute babysitter today because I had to work.
He did not sleep well last night and the nap today was a total wash. Talk about a LONG afternoon. Finally we gave up on sleeping and worked on cleaning- look at how sweet my helpful little helper is. He wiped down his kitchen repeatedly.

Mardi Gras and Abbypony
We wound up being so busy again this weekend. Today we went to our friend Stacy's Mardi Gras party. Vake was very into the mask she had given him to wear (we had to hide it from him after she gave it to him last weekend so it wouldn't be destroyed) and I got him to pose for a few pics this morning- although he's such a man on the move it was harder to achieve that you might guess... Here he is with Daddy.
