We absolutely LOVE it when we find some old-school style playground toys. The kind that still have that element of danger. Where you could SO end up in the hospital if you don’t play right.
This was one of those things.
We are, to this day, unsure of the purpose of this contraption. Was […]

To entertain the kids, I thought I’d break out the ol’ buck o’ water trick. Except Benjamin mistook it for a pool.
And then Olivia proceeded to give him a bath.
And then bathed herself.
Benjamin loved being wrapped in a towel. Perhaps it brought him back to the days of his swaddled infancy?
It wasn’t long […]

If you care to read my excuse for my tardiness, it is as follows: Spent last night preparing for a CVS trip where I had to spend no less than $56.98 in ECB, which means after all coupons. And had to wait til naptime to get the pictures from the past week all […]

We went to the park this weekend to celebrate the first glimpse of sun in approximately 40 days.
(The laundry piles attest to this as well.)
It was pretty hard to take a bad picture given the perfect lighting and beautiful children. So sit back and enjoy my temporarily gained photographical skillz.
Off to the playground:
Taking a lesson […]

What? Mother’s Day is over? I have to get off the couch? I HAVE TO GET OUT OF BED? Fine.
So I’m late. You just be glad I’m not pulling a Meet-and-Greet Tuesday.
(By the way, when I pull stunts like this, you can totally post your pics on a Tuesday. Odds are I won’t be posting […]

Sure, I published this yesterday!
I would never post a Meet-and-Greet Monday on a Tuesday.
That’s just wrong.
Okay, so maybe I changed the date to make it look like I published this yesterday.
You caught me.
Well, here are a couple movies of what’s gone on here the past week.
And I just realized neither child o’mine is wearing pants […]

A bit late today, I know. It was a Monday to beat all Mondays. To beat them with sticks. Sticks to the shins. That kind of Monday.
We had a fun week last week. It was beautiful weather and there was much chalk. Much, much chalk. Olivia and I […]

Always feel this beautiful.
Never need braces.
Always eat your vegetables.
Always be willing to try new things.
Always take the trash out for your mommy and eventually for your wife. When I’m good and ready […]

This what Benjamin does as soon as he wakes from his nap every afternoon.
(That’s his sisters door. She is still sleeping. There is lots of banging and shouting involved.)
Look, he’s even got Michael (the boy I babysit) doing it.
Actually, Olivia’s not asleep. She has shut them out on purpose.
(All the toys are […]
