PAT SAT ON A BOX.



"Yee haw!"

I liked the pot it was in.

12/29 - CowCow loves construction

CowCow and I took a break this morning and surfed the internet for some heifers.



At lunch, we had to take her photo with the Ferry Building clock.  And a shiny gold statue at the Thai restaurant.






On our way back to work, we saw an open manhole.  Such a large lid!

12/28 - Bob with zig zigs and zebra plant

Today's letter is Z!  Bob and I saw Zig Zag lights at the train station.  Mommy has a new Zebra plant at work.





At lunch, we learned that Bob is alllmooooost as tall as a salt shaker (and somewhat shaped like one as well).

12/24 - C is for Cookie

I'm off work until next week, so only real helpers at home.  Here are the masterpieces we made today.

Lil' Gal has a heavy hand with the sprinkles.



Lil' Guy ate more candies than he put on the cookies.


















Let's hope Santa likes them!  Merry Christmas!

12/22 - Mommy has the sniffles

Just in time for Christmas, it's my annual cold!  Bah.  At least Froggy was sympathetic.



Not much time to play today, what with the cold and wrapping up work stuff for my long holiday weekend.  Here's Froggy waiting for the Elevators That Never Come.

12/21 - 'Ella, 'ella, 'ella...

Today, each twin gave me a toy to bring to work.  Since Lil' Gal doesn't usually participate more than giving a veto vote, I brought both toys in.  Hopefully this won't be a dangerous precedent and require me building an ark.  Although it *was* rainy today.



At lunch, we saw a larger-than-me Nutcracker while checking out the Snow Village at the Hyatt.




Later, Piggy and Ostrich were so cute hanging out together, I just took their close-up.  Hi!  Hi!

12/18 - Dino says, "Eat cookies! Roar!!"

I brought in some cookies to share with my coworkers, and Dino wanted some, too.



















At lunch, we saw a neato pirate ship, and Dino wanted to go for a ride.  We couldn't get it out of the glass case, and we ROARED!



















Then, we got a card from Mommy's work friend.  It had a picture of their cute twins in it, which our cute twins met when they were in town visiting.  Dino promised to bring the card home to Lil' Guy and Lil' Gal.

Aren't Ryan and Katie darling?

12/17 - Ostrich on ice

Ostrich found a big paper snowflake at Mommy's desk today.



Then, she wanted to help Mommy with a spreadsheet. And she learned some numbers!




We finished up the day with a team party at Jackie's (not pictured) lovely home, where even the chandeliers were decorated festively... and Mommy triumphed at Taboo!

12/16 - Menage a fog

Tiger and I saw a band playing Christmas carols and lots of umbrellas on the way into work this morning!





































Tiger and Turkey and I had lunch with David.  It was very foggy!
Can you see the bridge behind them?


12/16 - Turkey and the pirates

The pirates took really good care of Turkey last night when he stayed at work.  They let him go on the pirate ship!
Turkey says "Gobble gobble gobble arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!"


















(Looking more closely at Turkey...  I wonder -- is he really a peacock??)
