Look at these two stripey siblings. Pretty cute, non?

Yet another post about these two chimps

There have been countless posts about Evy and Sam and their sweet sweet love for each other. But, here's your update that lets you know that their love is still strong and alive, and indeed growing. They are SO funny together. Looking at the pics, I still have trouble believing that they are the same age, nevermind the same species!

Here they are at Granny & Poppa's fancy new house:

Looking like proper chimpanzees


Sharing a meaningful look


A look of amusement and adoration (?)


More funny faces


And the whole crowd with Granny, featuring Henry's legs


I have to say, that Charley was in all the above pictures, but I cropped him out of a few because all he did the whole time was stare at the chestnut he was holding in every photo! That said, he does quite love Evy too, and seems to love Henry even more. He asked yesterday if Henry could live with them. I was all for that plan (due to a delirious lack of sleep) but Lee wasn't going for it. Darn.

I can't believe we're in late May! Summer is going to be over if I blink (because if I blink, I'll surely fall asleep and will wake up in the Fall when the leaves are falling from the trees!). Hope everyone had a great long weekend!

6 weeks!?

Has it really been six weeks since this little man came into the world?



It has gone by SO quickly (yet every night is an eternity - go figure that out! Might have something to do with his EXCESSIVE appetite!).

We're hanging in there. Life with 2 kids is definitely an adjustment. I dream about all the 'free' time I had before. Like when I splurged and washed my hair. Or remembered to go pee. Sigh. I know these are the crazy weeks, and that things will (slowly) improve. I shall look forward to unburned dinners, getting more than 3 hours of sleep at a time, and the luxury of wearing clothes out of the dresser and not out of the heap of clothes on the bedroom floor.

And then Henry gives me a smile and a coo, and it's all worth it. So, there ya go, that's why people continue to have kids, even though it almost destroys your sanity.

Happy (rainy) weekend everyone!

Baby

Evy has been working hard taking care of a baby too. She's a fine wee mother!
