Sweet teeth

Max takes a lap around the food court for tooth pick samples and usually decides on Chinese food.  "I love orange chicken because it tastes so sweet like candy!" Max explains.

How big is Kira!?  She was closely guarded once the carousel actually started moving and she cried when it was over.

Kira took 20 minutes to eat half of a bite size piece of chocolate.  She spent the next 15 minutes cleaning it off her face.

Turns out she needed more time and more wipes.

Double smiles guaranteed

Sure fire way to guarantee a few minutes of peace and love, usually followed by splashes and screams

Max's new thing is to reenact spring and summer league basketball games that he goes to with David.  He plays a basketball game in the basement and makes his coach (daddy) talk to him after. He looks upset, but that is all part of the act.

Mini Mickey!

Kira is obsessed with this costume!  The second she puts it on (brings it to daddy to put on her) she becomes giddy with excitement and prances around the house showing off her outfit.  She had it on for hours today; her body was approximately 1000 degrees when she finally shed it for bath.

Max wore this costume for Halloween in 2013.  He really did love Mickey, but he hated this costume.  It is hard to remember a time when Max did not explicitly spell out what he wanted to be for Halloween, but he did enjoy the candy that night.  When Max saw this photo of himself he asked why Kira was outside and why she had a sad face.  He could not believe it was him.

"I really like when you come home from Philadelphia!" Max said late last night, along with some other sweet and funny nuggets.

"Where did you sleep?"

"Was the man from grandma and Pa's hotel there?"

"Where did you eat?"

"How did you get to work?"

"I checked and so many of your clothes were still here!"

"Kira was really bad at Chipolte, but I didn't hit her back."

"When we were in Florida, daddy was in Richmond."

"I'm a net!"

Kira and Piggy needed a diaper change at mommy's school

Kira and Hattie have the sweetest little friendship!  They call for each other's names and run around looking for each other if they get separated.
