Dinner with Jia and Willa

"Say, what did I get you again? I'd better check."


"OK, all the presents and desserts are gone. Now what?"


"BABY!!!"


"Wow, Jia, you sure have a cute sister!"

Fun in the Sun

Finally! Another nice day!! Time to head to the park again!


"Any requests for what you want to eat?"


"Mmmm, smell that delicious aroma! Oh, this is going to be so good!"


"OK, Will, your sand baby food is ready!"


"Whoa! This isn't as easy as it looks!!"

Condensed Fashion Show

"Four new outfits? No problem -- I can try 'em all on at once!!"


"Oh no! Too heavy! I can't... keep... upright! Falling... over!!!"

Red Robot

Anabelle calls this get-up her robot costume, which I guess makes sense since it looks like something from the old Dr. Who show.

Anabelle on the Swings

After pushing Will on the swings, Anabelle says, "It's my turn now!!"

Finally -- Nice Weather!!

"Winter, I wash my hands of you!"


"OK, now let's see...what was that recipe for mud pies again?"


"I can't believe you forgot my bucket and shovel, Dad! How am I supposed to play in the sand now?"


"I guess I'll just have to help myself to these toys lying around. Hmm, no one seems to be looking..."


"Oh, how I missed flying through the air like this!"


"Come on, puppy, let's go for a walk!"

Tea Time

"First we pour the tea..."


"...then we add a little sugar..."


"Mmmm! Another perfect cup of tea!!"
