Quirky Chaos

Dalton puts on his own shoe!

I had a meeting last night, so by the time I got home it was almost bedtime.  On nights like this the pickins are often pretty slim when it comes to photo ops.  So I can't say these are our best pics ever, but they are kinda quirky...

The kids were playing in Darby's room.  Darby started out by bouncing on the inflatable pink cow, and then decided Penny should ride with her.  She needed some sort of baby carrier for her, so, logically, she went on a hunt for some Mardi Gras beads.  I've got to hand it to her - I don't think Graco will be coming out with a line of these anytime soon - but it actually did work.


Meanwhile, Dalton set to work packing Oink the suitcase for a very important trip (I'm not sure where).  As you might expect, he was smart enough to pack a pile of flags, some pirates and some mega blocks.  That's our little boy scout - always prepared.


At some point Stella ran under the bed.  The business end of a mini flag may have prompted that.  As a result, both kids had to crawl under as well.  While under there Dalton managed to score Sasha the doll's paci, that must have rolled under there.  It promptly went in hs mouth - despite the fact that he never had much use for pacis when they were available to him.  Darby of course freaked out because it was Sasha's.  When he gave it up to Sasha, Darby immediately popped it her mouth.  Chaos ensued.
