Ummmm, just a bit too tight!

Much better.

Pool Party!

Amelia had a little friend, Charlize over to play while her mom worked. We had a blast. The two of them ended up being natural buddies, although Charlize is way better at communicating and getting around. Nevertheless, we had fun. We hit the nature center, napped, and then spent the afternoon in the baby pool. Amelia pitched a royal fit when it was time to go in (it had only been 2 hours in the pool).

Get Pumped!...'So You Think You Can Dance' is Fast Approaching!

Bill Shannon is this amazing dancer/choreographer who has suffered all his life from from what's called legg-calve-perthes disease. It's a degenerative disease in which his hips are no longer able to bear weight. He turned his disability into a real opportunity. How cool is he. His My Space is www.crutchdoc.com

The Nature Center...Again

I hit the Nature Center again on Saturday with Amelia. We met my friend Sam, and her little boy Simon there. The weather was great, and the two kids had so much fun. Amelia got a "friendly" warning from the baby chicks to not stick her finger in the cage. We all learn the hard way every once in a while. I look forward to spending lots of time there this summer!

Happy Birthday Callie and Logan!

Markham and Amelia


We went to Winsboro SC this weekend to celebrate little Logan and Callie's birthdays. Callie is one, and Logan is now three! We had a good time. The party was out at the "farm" with a hay ride, good bar-b-que, and lots of other kids. It was good to see everybody.

What Is It With Toilet Paper?

Amelia has added a new "behavior" to her repertoire. She usually sneaks into the bathroom and unravels the toilet paper roll with one swat of her hand...today, she found the role holder empty, so she did what came naturally to her. She bit a chunk out of the roll she found in the basket below. She bit through at least 30 layers. What is it with toilet paper?
