its a game they made up.

they control each other with the remote.

they have to do what the other pushes.

skip.

pause.

mute.

rewind.

fast forward.

their favorite is eject.

when big scoops up little...

then drops him on the couch.

that one doesn't work so well the other way around.

it wasn't a question if charlie wanted to do it but when it was.
puts in his all.
thinks out every costume for theme laps...
for everyone.
the whole family was out until 9:30.
this year with did it with nana.

having fun.
remembering.
missing.
wiping tears.
showing their spirit.
doing it for those who can't.

fun at school tonight.

jungle gardens came and brought reptiles.

surprisingly, sam was a big fan.

nicklaus was all about the mote marine hands on exhibit.

i think charlie just enjoyed having me around at a school event instead of running it.

gwhiz children's museum was there.

it was a hair raising event!

too young to hunt for the words on his own.

so he finds letters and circles them.

always s-a-m first.

then m-o-m.

followed by d-a-d.

today though he couldn't find j.

for joe e.

his preferred name as of late.

so...

he wrote it instead.

don't really  know how to describe this face.

his goofy-i-don't-really-want-to-take-a-picture-so-i'll-avert-my-eyes look.

didn't work.

still took the pic.

this is how he looked after i picked him up after 1 1/2 hours with tom.

some sort of juice mustache.

rubber band around his head.

he is very fashion forward.
