    Awww, those were great Mother’s Day gifts. And Archer is bad-ass on those drums. Adorable! ;o)

    I LOVE Fable’s headband — we have the same one, and a matching hat that they made to say DAD

  16. Happy (belated) Mother’s Day!

    Archer = Amazing.

    I read and read and watch videos and witness, but his knack for music is astounding. Can I just tell you how impressed I am?

    Congrats on the nap, Fable is an angel.

    Bah! We love Mother’s Day!

    I’m pretty sure Archer is a musical genius…

  19. I kind of think so, too. But I’m his mom so maybe that’s par for the course. Looking into music-oriented charters and summer programs not only for his singing but also for his instrumental ability. This was his first time playing drums and he pretty much nailed it.

    cute on both ends! The drums are so much fun for them at this age with the loud noise. let’s start a preschooler band, hee!

    Archer is very talented. I remember that video of him humming the tune of Carmen. He was pitch perfect.
