It has been an unusually quiet week at the Fox house. That's good, because Avril's been less than easy to get along with. She's much more demanding than Alex ever was. And now he's gone and grown up so that he has to be at kindergarten all day and isn't home to play with her. When Alex was three, he could entertain himself for a very long time with nothing more than kitchen utensils. I remember when we took him to DisneyWorld and I dreaded waiting in those long lines with a preschooler. As we discovered, there was nothing to worry about. His fingers became these guys that were fighting some other guys, and even in a 30- or 40-minute line, he was perfectly happy. Avril is definitely her own person.
But she's learning to entertain herself a little bit. The Leap Pad was big today.
Self portrait. Chalk on stone terrace. From the artist's blue period.
She's a well-rounded girl. Leap Pad intellectual. Artist. Horsewoman.
Randy got home from West Virginia today and put his new fire pit together. We're going to sit on the terrace tonight and watch sticks burn.

i didn't know you had a blog! that is so exciting! now i can see what is going on in your world!
cute pictures of avril... you sound like my mom talking about Chloe... she is a little more to deal with than Ireland ever was! too cute!
I agree with Corie, you will miss her next year. Tell Avril that the rasberries are loaded with green ones and in about a week we will have a bumper crop. I picked four cups yesterday, but most of them are still green. And yes, I do live too far.
Yeah for a blog! I had no idea you had one...can't wait to see what's happening with you guys! Miss you and love you!
