Lunch time

This is how we eat lunch 5 days a week. Caleb in his chair in the kitchen and Luke on the kitchen step. Here they wait.....
and wait...
and, Caleb plays peek-a-boo
and blows kisses.
Enough pictures....now for lunch!

Luke and Lindsey

A new family moved into "our" building in August and Luke fell in love with the 8 year old daughter who couldn't have cared less about him. But, the 5 year old, Lindsey, just watched as Luke followed her older sister around screaming (literally) for attention. Our little Romeo would beg to hold her hand, offer her flowers, and yell "how's your day?" at the top of his lungs every time we saw her--even far away. Thankfully, this phase passed as she rejected him countless times.
And now, Lindsey is our little friend. She comes home from school with Luke---or he with her--about every day. In fact, Luke asked tonight if maybe he and Lindsey could be a mama and daddy together someday. Someday 30 years from now, Buddy!!

Red Sox Wall of Fame

Many thanks to "Boston Mary" for the wonderful coverage of the Red Sox's victory. Big Papi came to our house this morning while Luke was at school and decorated his room with lots of clippings and pictures. Luke was VERY EXCITED when he got home from school and saw this corner of his room which has been known for housing many scary shadows at night. The days of the scary shadow man from Finland (as Luke calls him. strange, we know!) have ended and a new era has begun. Long live the Papi corner!

Boys' day and Girls' Day


This is a church somewhere in the Cotswalds.....I can't say exactly where because I WASN'T THERE!!! That's right. I was away from "the guys" for a whole day! Abbey took me with her to a fancy hotel in London for afternoon tea. Meanwhile, Clark, Chris, and the boys drove around and explored.

They went for a hike here.


Abbey and I had a WONDERFUL time. We took the train to London, then we walked, shopped, and talked until our 2:00 reservation. Then the "tea" was incredible. They brought us a silver pot of tea, and trays of sandwiches, scones, and little desserts (which they replenished as needed). And, we got to eavesdrop on all the posh people around us toasting each other and giving multiple kisses on each cheek (as a 3-year old friend of ours taught us is the "euro-kiss").

Funny how the guys came back with buildings and grass in their pictures and we can back with people and yummy food in ours. Now what exactly does that mean about each gender? Hmmm....
