Pasta for Tua

Seth and Tua boiling water for pasta. Tua now has a new sign...she says "ha!" as she extends her arm towards something that is hot. However, yesterday she did this as she was eating yogurt. Close enough.

Kaplink-Kaplank-Kaplunk

Apologies to Robert McCloskey for stealing his words for this title. While picking rocks out of the back garden today, Tua seemed much more interested in the sound each rock made as it hit bottom, than the actual task of cleanup at hand. It was, at least an improvement from the day before, when she was doing her best to empty the bucket piece by piece, hurling rocks back onto the lawn.

Tua wanted us to get a few pictures of her new hat. She's just waiting for some boots and spurs to go with it-- and then maybe a couple of cats to herd around the yard.

Tax Day

Tua and Phare met yesterday for the first annual Tax Day Celebration. They met on the premise that for the next sixteen years or so, neither of them will be responsible for filing a 1040. Overheard at this meeting were comments like, "How was your first year as a dependant, Phare?" To which Phare replied, "Can you even spell dependant, Tua?" The two discussed current tax policy as well as favorite Praise Baby videos.
