Following is a video of Wilson helping Phil open his birthday presents. Wilson has definitely gotten the concept of presents. He cried all day whenever he say a gift for Daddy and I wouldn’t let him open it!

(PS- this one’s for you, Pat Pat- I have captured the new “accent” on audio- “what’s thiuuus?”)
(PPS- sorry the video’s a bit squashy. Yours truly can’t quite grasp the idea that you can’t video in “portrait”. I’ve learned how to rotate the video when I make this goof, but it just makes the subject matter look as though it’s gained about 50lbs. Coincidence that I’m never in the videos? I think not!!)

I just went in to check on Wilson before going to bed- we are on night two of the “big boy” bed & room. Pictured below is what I found. If only I’d known how many lives I’d touch by creating the Jeep bed. I’ll post more pics of the new room in the morning. Nighty-night!

Okay, one more post before I go to bed. This picture just popped up on my Google Desktop. It is one of our favorites of the dogs (taken on our old digital camera- sorry if it turns out a little “pixelly”). It was taken the day we brought Tate home. Look how proud Jack is! Shortly after this, Tate hopped on Jack’s blanket and Jack was pulling him around the house, it was too cute! It’s hard to believe that that cute, little, innocent, white fluff ball turned into Tate- boy, oh boy, if we’d only know then!!

We just finished the best movie. And, no, I’m not talking about Cars (although I have seen it three times today plus all the bonus features and I still think it’s pretty darn cute). Phil and I just finished Little Manhattan. It is the cutest- I highly recommend it. It’s a very happy little story told by a fifth grader in New York. It’s on HBO on Demand right now, if you have that. If you don’t, put it in your queue or rent it. I promise it’ll put a smile on your face!

Tonight our friends John & Kendy had a costume party at their house. It was lots of fun and everyone had great costumes. Below are a few pictures of all the cute little goblins and their mammas & daddies (click on them to enlarge!)

Going around the island from left to right: A true Super Woman Ginny (she has a two year old and twins!) Jonathan (also known as Nathan’s dad is dressed as Kevin- not pictured is his wife (due any day now) as Britney), John, Eliza Kate, & Kendy (the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe- the wardrobe had to be removed so John could do some Daddy duty), and Ashley & baby Bradley- arrrrr- what great pirate costumes!

The Twins- Ford, a duck & Virginia, a bunny

The twin’s brother, Ben and their dad, Matt

From our Costume Playgroup Friday morning

Mamma, I see the moon

And, of course, no frog suit is complete with out cars. I should start a “Where’s Waldo” type game with that yellow bug- he’s in most of our pictures!
