I'd better lick them, so that I can taste my cookie.

After dinner, Hale said, "Do you like mud pie dirt cake would be good to eat all up for mommy to share the rest of us with."
I said, "Hang on a second Hale, I need to write something down."

Christmas Time at Hale's House
(hint: you can click on these to see them bigger)
Contemplating this year's Santa Claus picture
"These two are Daddy and Hale, and this one over here is Mommy. She's away, working at the studio." --Hale telling a story on his stuffed snowman ornaments
Objects in mirror are goofier than they appear.
"I will hang those clinking baby boots now."
Hale commandeered the camera to take a picture of Mommy. Daddy focused.
I know the feeling, Hale.

Charlotte Made This For Me. Mommy, Daddy, Look.

(H): Charlotte made this for me.
(Mommy or Daddy): What a nice gift. What is it? Is it a spider?
(H): Charlotte made it for me!
(M or D): That was so sweet of Charlotte to make that for you.
(H): Yup. It's because I'm Spiderman. I have a spider on my back.
