FUN WITH BIRTHDAY TOYS - The week of September 14th



Aunt Becky and Uncle Mike...
I LOVE the wagon with LEGOS inside



Now, let's get rid of the pesky LEGOS and put
something more interesting inside.



Well, it doesn't have a lot of legroom,
but the headroom is fantastic!  MUSH! MUSH!






Mom and Dad love my new noisy Nemo book : )



I'm very good at the shape sorter from
Granny Franny and Grandpa Charles

TELLING KITTY A JOKE



Owen: "so, three toddlers walk into a bar...."



1 minute later...
Owen: "and the bartender says "...for that you'll need a Mr. Potato Head!"
Kitty (to himself): the kid's just not that funny

The carousel in Corpus Christi, TX



"I love to go round-n-round!"



Wheeee!!!








May I help you?



Of course I'll help you finish your milk.




Sprinkler action at Rob and Jen's house

Does someone have the key to this?



Excuse me sir, but I really need to get this open.

The happy couple



Daryl meets Owen



The University of Illinois group: Evan, Daryl, and Joe all worked with Dave while he was in Paul Kwiat's group at UIUC. A great bunch of guys!



The grown-ups all have... shoes!

The above wedding pictures are courtesy of Cynthia Chiang, another cool person from UIUC. Here she is with her boyfriend Luc -- ain't they cute? Thanks Cynthia!

Hmmm...Pull-Ups?  An interesting concept.

The park with Dad....

Okay fine, I'll come down!

YIKES!!!!!

GOTCHA!!!!  I was just kidding mom, I'm fine.

I love my HOG!!!

Yes my booty has my name on it...and what a
cute booty it is.

How a floor lamp becomes a deadly weapon.

The boys at rest...for the moment....
