The Hulk Baby

S: Daddy! Quick! Come here! It's an emergency!
Me: Coming!
S: No, don't come! It's not an emergency! Don't come!
Me: I'm coming!...What happened?
S: Oh, Thalia just tore the cabinet door off. She's not doing it anymore...
(I explained to Sophia that her instinct to call me when The Hulk baby makes an appearance is always the correct response.)

Wake Up, Big Sister!

Baby Thalia is up early.
Baby Thalia is bored.
Baby Thalia wants to play with big sister Sophia.
Baby Thalia climbs into big sister Sophia's bed.

Big sister Sophia just wants to be left alone to sleep in this morning.

Baby Thalia finds a bedside glass of water and pours it on big sister Sophia's blankets.
Big sister Sophia is up!
Baby Thalia is so happy!
Big sister Sophia is really, really mad!

Sleepy Daddy comes in to see what all the yelling is about.
Sleepy Daddy is trying not to laugh at the situation.

Sleepy Daddy and Baby Thalia go to the kitchen together to make toast and coffee so big sister Sophia can dry off and be in a better mood...

Whack Attack!

Getting ready to leave Bryant Park Beach:

I knock sand off of my frisbee by hitting it against the edge of an aluminum picnic table. Whack, whack, whack!

I knock sand from my sandy sandals against the picnic table, too. 
Whack, whack, whack!

Whack, whack, whack!
"Oh, no. Who's doing that?"

I look down to see baby Thalia mimicking me by whacking a cell phone against the table...
