Watching them set up the carnival across the street.

For some reason, the boys seem to think that wearing your underwear on your head (or Daddy's) is far more reasonable than on your bum!

Playing the pots 'n' pans.

Today Glenn took us all to the beach in St Mary's county (the Chesapeake Bay). Sammy and Jake LOVE the water. They made a beeline for it as soon as they saw it and it was all we could do to keep them out of it. Jake couldn't understand why he couldn't just crawl right through it! Here is Sam, sporting his new life vest and Daddy sporting his new swim suit.

So. Jake's new thing to do? Take his diaper off when he's in bed. Usually we only have pee accidents. I'll spare you any pics that aren't.

(sorry for the attempt to keep his modesty intact - for some reason, I couldn't get Paint to let me make a nice, black box!)

My little Rooneydoons.

Chillin' in the hammock.

(ok, I cheated, no pic was actually taken today - this was actually taken on the 11th)

Amma and Jake sportin' the hats.

Sometimes just one picture really isn't worth 1000 words.

Step 1: drag kid-size rocking chair into kitchen, stand on it, and grab illicit item off counter-top.

Step 2: Chow down on peanut butter in the corner until Mommy finds you.

Note to future peanut butter thiefs - it's best to try this when when Mommy is on the phone. And move fast. We did this in under a minute!

These guys LOVE to help us unload the dishwasher. Unfortunately, here, they seem to be trying to load themselves into it. Hmmmmm... bath time anyone?

Technically, I forgot to take a picture 'today' so I'm posting a cute one that was taken tomorrow. Jake in his latest fine attire!

Today we went to see Grandma and Grandpa at their assisted care home. It was 'Donuts with Dad' (for Father's Day) and we all enjoyed it even though Grandpa has a pretty bad cold. Jake was the star of the show and flirted with all the folks there. Here he is, with the family, enjoying the nice (for a change) weather.

(oh, Sammy was a summer camp today, hence his absence)

Happy birthday to me!

Jake's first taste of a dill pickle. Sadly, the camera caught him just before the grimace. Oh well, more for me!

An action shot! Naked boys on the prowl!!

It was a REALLY hot day today. So when we got back to the house after running errands, great delight was taken in stripping off and playing in the water that got in the sandbox (from the rain the night before). Much silliness abounds!

The new favorite place to play.

'Who you takin' that picture of? Gimme that camera!'

Today is a two-fer! First we went to DiPasquales in Highlandtown. I heard about it courtesy of Guy Fieri's show, Diners, Drive-ins and Dives, though just asking family about a good Italian deli would probably have led me here, too. What an awesome place! Glenn and I could drop a bomb here!

Next we went to Fells Point and walked around with the boys and had ice cream. What a great day!
