“i’m just pretending, pretending to be crazy!” owen 4/27/09
owen says “he’s crazy” all the time, i just thought it was funny that he said he was just pretending to be crazy. it’s like a get out of jail free card. i’m not actually being crazy, i’m just pretending, it’s not real. very clever my boy, [...]
dylan has gotten much better at “crawling” he can now actually get around. he “crawls” exactly like owen did, which we lovingly call “zombie leg” because as he crawls he drags his right leg and it makes this awesome “shik, shik” sound.

“dylan. dylan. dylan.” i find myself saying alot for various reasons and intonations.

“don’t play with your balls!” owen 4/14/09

we took the kids out late, late last night — spent the evening with the gormans — who bought a house nearby on 47th. when we got home, we realized we had no idea where the [...]
