Goth Girl

Thank goodness for washable markers. I was distracted for a few minutes and turned around to see my little girl covered in black marker. Baby wipes work wonders on Crayola markers - not a new discovery in this house. I think she thought she was putting on makeup.

Another great find...

We discovered a new place to play today. It is called The Grove and it is in Allen, TX - about 20 minutes from our house. There are five playhouses, a maze made from bushes and a real train caboose. Clare had a ball running from one house to the other - there is a bank, a post office, a fire station, a restaurant and an actual house. My friend, Shelley, got a great shot of Ian.

Our Little Texan

Clare has been really good about saying Thank You and says it in appropriate situations. Tonight after dinner, she asked for ice cream. Brian fixed it and put in front of her and said, "What do you say?" She responded with "Yee Haw".
