Zombie Hunter

"Why are you taking my picture?"

"Cuz look how cute you are!"

"Mom...I'm not cute!  I'm a zombie hunter"

A pretty cute zombie hunter if you ask me

Star Wars and Legos

Grandma and Granddad visited last week and brought this amazing Lego Star Wars book.  The boys have been studying it for days!

Soothing

Jack has always had 'big feelings'.  Teaching him how to manage those feelings is my #1 task as his mother.  It's been a pretty stressful few days and we decided to pull out the secret weapon: A Spa Treatment.  Nice warm tub + candles + classical music + breathing exercises = a more peaceful boy...for now.

The Bagster

I'm a bit of a dumpster addict.  I love purging my house/garage of broken things, creating clean spaces that I always swear will not be replaced with other things that eventually break.

I recently discovered the Bagster...a smaller version of the dumpster.  It took me no time at all to fill it...probably could have used 2!  But the garage is now roomier for bikes to be neatly parked.  

I find great satisfaction in completing a project that eliminates junk from my life! 

Super Bird

Sometimes, right before bed, a guy needs a little snack.  Some people might have a piece of toast or a few crackers.  Not Jack.  Protein is what the boy needs and he loves when it comes in the form of the Super Bird.  No need for a plate - just a fork will do!

Can I take your Order?

The window above the kitchen sink has become a 'drive thru' window for the people enjoying the pool.  Here's how it works:  A cute face appears at the window requesting something to eat or drink...or perhaps a fresh towel.  The nice lady on the other side of the window delightfully gives the cute face whatever it asks for.  It is summer after all!
