Michael, wasn't there some story about when Ava started school she was fine but Lulu was screaming to go back and get her?

I'm so torn between not wanting my kids to ever change/grow up and rampant curiosity about what they'll be like at Ned's kids' ages.

Sunny: yes, Lulu couldn't bear leaving Ava behind at school back in the Nursery days. I think Pam is relishing the new-found freedom of being childless 8:40-11:40am; this morning she chaired a PTA meeting and planned the Xmas Fair.
And I know exactly what you mean about being torn between wanting them to be this way forever but also being excited about what comes next.

Ava has some v Steadymike eyebrow action going on there.

Goodness, she's a little girl now. And they look like pretty neat and considered circles and curves for 17 months! As recently as this spring, Lulu's version of drawing was still mostly trying to fuse writing implement and paper into a single compound through sheer pressure and frictional heat.

hey Stevie what's that erasable drawing board called? i'd love to get one.

Those are called Magna-doodles. However, I found this thing on Amazon called a Boogie Board that is way more awesome.

yeah it's crazy how some snapshots give you this weird little insight into how they're going to look when they get older.
from the same trip i took this one, which i think is terrific - and there's a weird blurring effect - but you don't see the future-self there, just sweet enjoyment of the present:
