Not only do they love their kids, they like them too. I know! Isn’t it enough that we love our kids: instinctively, irrationally, unconditionally? Must we also LIKE them, in all their booger-eating, sticky-fingered sklonklishness?

(can't remember if they're blue-eyed or not). Mallory has the great haircut, etc. geez, i just can't keep up. sally (avery) was lucky to get changed out of her pajamas at that age. don't know how it would've been if i'd had boys first. i think boy clothes are so cute! but just wait until you have to smell 10,000 pairs of panties to see if they are clean or not. we argue about who has to do that at our house. i would just wash them all, but sometimes there are quite a few strewn about. sklunlish comes from that great cary grant-myrna loy movie <em>the bachelor and the bobby-soxer</em>. shirley temple uses it to describe her mood. hey Suzy–great to hear from you. your kids are so cute! and blond!

Girls' clothes are just so much cuter, but maybe I need a life. I like the word slunkish. I'll have to use that from now on. - Suzy Hey– I’m wondering if I should take offense at the “sorta- nerdy- sorta- Aryan- nation- but- not” description. :)

Perfect angels when they're sleeping. I love Spot's late Halloween costume and the slunklish look on her face. So are these 2 sleeping in Spot’s crib? Perfect angels when they’re sleeping.
