It’s a dangerous thing, giving an 18-month old a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast. (Other parents have discovered the same thing.)

After a few meals like the one pictured above we learned to strip Henry down to just his diaper before serving him. It’s better for everyone that way. Henry can be as messy as he likes and Mommy won’t have to change his clothes.

Also in this small gallery are some shots from a Symphony in the Cities concert by the Pacific Symphony Orchestra and me putting the kids to work as car washers.
