Calvin is going through his nightly routine of saying goodnight to the moon and stars. Pam and I thought we should buy these at Ikea, as Calvin seems to have a facination for the moon and stars.

A picture like this has to make you smile. Gwen was playing with her barn, and thought she should pose for a picture. With the sun streaming in from behind, the picture turned out great!

A picture like this is worth a 1000 words. He is exhausted from eating too much candy, and talking a long walk with Dale.

Elizabeth with a doll. Gwen thought that the doll would be comfortable on Elizabeth's back.

Calvin and Gwen play ball (with assistance). Dale has a lot of patience.

Brittany and Gwen pose for a braided photo. What a gorgeous day!

Hi! My name is Alexandria, and this is my 1st photo where I am not making a silly face. :)

Gwen and "Grandpa" Steve play with the barn.

Ever hear of walking in someones footsteps? Well, Calvin decided to crawl in mine. This was quite funny.

Pam and Aunt Barbara do a little cooking/baking together.

Easter egg decorating is so fun!

Time for a ride! Come on Dad, no huffing and puffing... pull us up that huge hill! Yah!

Gwen is adorable. There are times you walk through the house, and see something like this. A stuffed animal or doll, all tucked up on a pillow under some blankets. Very cute, I can't help but smile.

Hello! I'm playing here on the papasan with my Gorilla.

An apple a day keeps the doctors away!

Who me? No Dad, I did not cause my sister to cry... it was the cats.

What a ham! She loves to smile for photos. Here she is in front of Aunt Barbara's garden.

Look at my smile! I obviously did something that Mom and Dad are not going to like.

Brothers and Sisters can play together. Here is proof. The farm and zoo are a big hit.

I want to be a police officer just like Uncle Dave! Except, I'm wearing a hood (hoodlum).

Here are "Les Kidz" going out with Mom and Dad for a walk. The weather was delightful, so we went out for a walk, and had the kids stay awake a bit longer. It was worth it. Spring has sprung!

Calvin and Gwen each have their own chairs. Sometimes the swap them. The latest thing is to put the chairs on the couch, and sit on them, and have Dad put them under a shared blanket. What fun!

It isn't easy pushing your teeth through your sore gums. Here is Calvin, about to receive some oragel to help sooth the pain. Calvin utters: "Mommy. Teeth hurt! Medicine."

Pam and Calvin share a moment. See those scratches on my wife? These scratches are from another person in this photo. Hint: He is on the right, looking a little smug.

Hello everybody! Look at my gorgeous smile! Gwen loves to meet new people, and will chat up a storm in the process.

Freaky glasses give red-eye a new meaning. Funnily enough, the red-eye removal program I have did some strange things to this picture. I wonder why?

Just picture Calvin saying over, and over, and over... "Up. Up. Up Daddy. Up. Read. Animals. Einstein". Calvin loves to watch the Baby Einstein series, especially if there are animals involved. When he wakes up, and Pam or I pick him up, he utters: "Hungry. Eat. Errios (Cherioos). Animals. Einstein." He also loves to have books with animals read to him.

Calvin enjoys the use of the Cochrane kid rocking chair.

Calvin and Gwen enjoy the new view. The toy box gives them access to the bay window.
