 The boys pretending they are going to sleep.  I just wish they could learn to pretend for more than 2 seconds.  I need them to extend it to about 20 minutes then do it several times in a row.

 My little flower garden in the backyard.

 Farmers because you know all it takes to be a farmer is a stalk of grass in your mouth.  Yes I am raising a city kid.

After Matthew left Alex wanted to take a selfie.

Morning Routine

We have a pretty solid morning routine around here that begins in the kitchen.

 Alex sits on the counter top to see whats happening (could be dishes, making toast, making lunch.) Really if I'm in the kitchen doing something he is on the counter these days.  If I don't let him up there right away he wiggles in between me and the counter and pushes me and yells until I lift him up.

 

and Matthew gets the bowls of cereal on the table. After we eat its off to the bedroom to get dressed then brush the teeth and out the door to the car.  Most days we are right on time!

It sounds so simple when written down but in reality it is soooo much more complicated.

Kids and Cats

I don't know why kids and cats find boxes so alluring

 but this one was perfect because

it had a ready made eye hole!
