Slappy Gets Her Vacation

Tom and Jerry with Maya and Dexter.
Well, hello there, Todd and Kears.

Slappy Has Great Friends

Every 3 months, Maddie has to travel to Palo Alto to get her ear cleaned.  This involves a 6.5 hour drive, and a doctor's visit, something that still gets her very nervous.  This picture is taken at a rest stop along the long drive.  See how happy she is?  That is because this trip always ends with an overnight at Maya and Dexter's.  This go-round, upon learning that she had a doctor's appointment, she replied, "I get another vacation!  I'm so lucky!"  That's what having great friends can do - turn an arduous drive and a scary appointment into something to look forward to.

Madd Max Celebrates Steve

Happy Birthday, yo!

The Scrapper Loves Babies

As in they might be his favorite thing to hold in the entire world.  As in he will follow an adult around the house, just waiting for his chance to get to hold that baby, forsaking all other parts of a playdate.
Caroline.
Audrey.
Issac.

Slappy Is Very Upset

Max got to choose who to sit next to on the first leg of the trip home.  After a large temper tantrum, Maddie unhappily wrote this in her airplane seat, putting words to her distress.
 "Max is going to sit with Mom on the next plane and that plane is long."
Upon being told that this flight was actually longer, she happily wrote the above, "Actually, I am sitting on longer with Mom because my plane is 4 hours and Max's is 3 hours."
