Jamie loves animals.
Clara, Pete and John Paul Cunningham

We were lucky enough to get tickets to "The Greatest Show on Earth" Pete loved loved loved everything about it. And if you have 30 minutes he will tell you all about it: he saw tigers and elephants and guys walking on a wire, and the Circus song Bello Bello Bellobration, Bello was on a pole and who could forget the elephants pooped and it was gross. Clara shares her love for animals with her mother and was only concerned with when the dessert cart was going to arrive so she could get a lollipop.

Halloween 2007

Halloween was great. Pete was really into Halloween this year. Pete wanted to have a sad face carved on his pumpkin. When we asked why - he answered because he lost his mommy. Before we even made it to the second house he had eaten 2 fun size nestle crunch bars and a couple of mini-tootsie rolls. Before you think about calling DCFS - he did not throw up. Clara was the "line leader" for the Oshkosh gang". She was always the first one to knock on the door and patiently wait. (oh yeah -- and that is Rocco Bartucci, Pete's buddy, dressed as cowboy in the first and last picture)
