Hodge-Podge and Lodgeing

So, I guess I'm trying to make up for lost time. :) Monday I plan to post a "Favorite Memories of the Summer" post.

But for now...

I am loving the fact that Naomi's hair is growing long enough to do things with. Here she is yesterday.



and from the front:


Here are a two pics of my favorite people on this planet. (Notice that Naomi is wearing big-girl underwear.) She calls it "unweer" and cracks me up every time.




Here are some pictures that my dad took this morning of the kids eating their breakfasts.




And Papa being artsy and getting the reflection...


And for those of you interested in seeing our "digs" here at the "'rents house"...
The kid's room:










The bathroom they share with my cousin Elaina...


And you go up the stairs...


to the room/apartment/formerly "Gigi's Attic that JR and I share...
















Our bathroom (smaller than our closet)




and the view out over our room from the bathroom...


So... as you can tell, we are really roughing it here. :P
