St Paddy's Day Remembered

How artsy fartsy does that sound? In truth, it's more the latter.

My Mom came over and helped to watch the kids while I packed. She made us a fabulous dinner of corned beef and cabbage. Now that I know how good it is I will make it myself next year! One can only eat so much toast.



Joe's having a difficult time adjusting to the time change. He finally wore himself out and took a nap.



He's become obsessed with applesauce baby food as of late.



Basking in the afterglow of a good dinner.



I think Lily had a bite of carrot!



The following day, (which will probably irritate the heck out of her because she went to so much trouble), the kids' St. Paddy's Day presents from Godmommy Gina arrived! It was so wonderful that the package arrived when it did. Joe was having an awful day. I think he had a bad dream and woke up upset & never really recovered. He was crying after I put our little Doxie Greta back in the back yard after a visit, and I could see this was the last straw. Dennis reminded me that the package arrived! Thank Goodness it was there. It perked Joe up and made for a great evening. See how happy you made them? The gifts were wonderful and so thoughtful. Thanks, Gina! We love you! xo
