And now more from Rex (with a dash of CW)...and no they are not wearing crewcuts!


Since I always have so much about the outfits I am wearing or how much I love J. Crew, I decided I have to get pics of my kids up at least once in awhile. People like Roxie love to read my blog and read it more for the kids' pics than for me looking fabu (snort...).

Here is Rex with his birthday cake we got for him from Dairy Queen. He didn't wait at all before taking his spoon and just digging on in...good for you, Rex. Let's hope you have that sort of panache when you are looking to get good grades, a stable job, etc.

Don't worry, he left some for us.


He LOVES puzzles. I say if you need to know what to get a two-year old for his bday, wooden puzzles and electronic toothbrushes. I am not even kidding. Nothing is more darling than seeing Rex figure out the puzzle and smiling in his dazzling way (thanks to all the tooth-brushing he is doing with his new toothbrushes--that's right, I said toothbrushES).


So Rex used to love posing for the camera. Now he would prefer to help mommy take the pictures. I love budding photographers. :) This is the first shot he took (ever) with my camera. I say "not bad...not bad at all."


After taking the shot of the couch with Pops and CW, he then decided it was time to pose with momma. This was the best one I captured. It is REALLY hard to take a self-potrait with a Nikon D70. I am wearing a J. Crew shirt from a few years ago in this shot.


This is what we call CW's staring into your soul shot. She loves to make her eyes REEEEAAAALLLYYY BIIIIIIGGGG when posing. Cracks us up, this one.
