Valentine's Day

When the boys see us coming, they usually run and hide so that either they can jump out at us or so we will have to find them. The seeking is usually not that difficult as Zane provides clues from his hiding place. Gage used to do that, too, but has gotten wiser as he's grown older.

This day Zane was hiding under a pile of stuffed animals. Gage had him all covered up and I really wouldn't have known where he was if he hadn't spoken.

I tried to pose them like E.T. in the closet, looking like one of the stuffed animals, but didn't manage to get the same effect. They are much better at posing than Kate and Carlee. They will usually hold the pose long enough to get a decent photo. Of course, there's usually a lot of horsing around, too.
