Mish mash of boy-dom

I'm preparing for the departure of Christopher in a few days. A week all alone is daunting right now. Perhaps the boys will be extra, extra good? No tantrums or teething for the week would be super-awesome-ly-great-ness.

Here are a few bits and bites from the last week.

Is Sam an angel? Depends on whether you look at the close crop or the whole image.

Close crop? Definite angel.

Full shot? Trying to look sweet after barfing on the floor.
Did I ever tell you that Al and Jim's dog Penny is a maniac. Here she is reeeeally trying to climb a tree.
Aunty Nay and Evy encourage the madness.
Charley picks solar lights like flowers and sprints around the garden.
Ah, the un-jumpered baby. No wonder my wrists hurt. I can't tell if Charley is jealous or scornful here.
Pure silliness. This is the bathtub overflow that Jimmy decided looked just like Sammy. Perhaps delirium was setting in?

Finally, a little video clip. This is one of those "parent" clips, where there is puzzling parental pride over seemingly nothing. Here Sam sits! And rattles! At the same time! Whatta genius.

But, really. Look at those expressions! He discovered the baby in the mirror on this particular toy and, for some reason, gives it the "stink-eye" every chance he gets.
