Grey, 7 weeks

Are you considering having more?: that we are

How would you describe your parenting philosophy?: Just love them.

What's your favorite parenting book (if any)?: Blood Meridian. Just kidding ... we are inclined towards the Dr. Sears school.

What are your family’s favorite books and toys?: "The Night Shift" is Declan's favorite book, and I would say he is torn between his red cement mixer (which is far too big ... he can ride it like a pig) and his construction side with a wooden elevator and a ramp he can use to jetison matchbox cars across the living room.

What are you family’s favorite TV shows or movies?: TV obsessions have gone from "On the Go" to Elmo to Backyardigans to Dora to Diego. I miss the backyardigans.

What are your family's favorite foods?: cinamon toast, cream of wheat with brown sugar and waffles. Its not easy to get protein in the kid.

What one adjective would you choose to describe your household?: entropic
