Willow discovered Ciaran's pajama drawer...

... and she wanted to wear each piece she found.

And she found a lot.

And I mean a lot.

I think we counted 8 shirts and 6 pants before she got too hot and wanted to take them off again.

She's really walking now. And paying for it, as the results of a faceplant into the driveway shows.

Ciaran loves to wash the car.

Mary and I drove down to Battle Ground WA to meet up with LaRee and Kellie and their girls, at long last. The roadtrip begins... bet you didn't know 3 carseats fit in a Honda! (The look Ciars has on his face, by the way, was definitely foreshadowing the southward part of the journey.)

Here's (right to left) Abby, Kate, Ashlyn, and Willow (and Mary of course). The kids had a great time, and so did the moms!

Mary, Kellie, and LaRee.

LaRee and Ashlyn (I *think* it was Ashlyn in pink and Lexie in green, right? Maybe I'm backwards! I hope not.)

Ciars running. Probably away from Abby, who kept saying "but I want to be your friiiiend" when he tried to flee! Finally met his match!

I am so impressed how LaRee managed with both girls.
