all about baby oil


Little t. took a bath with E.
Little t. couldn't find the shampoo (Mom was switching laundry in the other room).
Little t. peruses through the contents under the sink.
Little t. finds a clear bottle with a cute teddy bear label.
Little t. dumps most of the clear substance on his & little sister's hair.
Two days later... I have two slippery children with super shiny hair. E. has rashes under her eyes from rubbing at the oil.


Things here are snowy & greasy& never dull!

all about science to a 10-year-old

Big T. researching his "science experiment." This kind of stuff brings a smile to Dad's face!

all about helping hands and feet

This is what happens when I leave little T. alone for a couple of minutes.
He wants to help.
Thanks little T. for the "hughnormus" pancake and the Nestle Quik .
Although I hate messes, I can't help but love that cute little footprint!

all about beloved blankies

This was the scene at our house before we went to church.
While E. was taking a bath, I secretly whisked away her beloved blankie and threw it in the washer. I didn't want her to drag it to church, with the stains, smells, and boogars attached. Well, shortly after getting out of the tub she went in search for her beloved.
And she found it.
There was much lamenting!

all about "putting your shoulder to the wheel"

I have been trying to incorporate whole wheat into our diets.
The boys love competing against each other to see who can make the most flour. It's a win-win situation.
They are exercising, working, and eating whole wheat.
The Little Red Hen would be proud.
Now, if I can figure out what to do with the wheat grass I'm growing? The boys like to see it grow, but I don't think they're going to like green juice. Any suggestions?

all about the twinkle in his eyes

It's basketball season for big T. and C.
C. loves sports, anything sports, everything sports, he loves sports! He gets this certain look on his face and a twinkle in his eyes when he is playing sports. He had this same look on his face this morning after winning their first game of the season. T. and his team also won their game this morning 42 to 11 & I think that T. made 14 or more points. He kind of gets that same twinkle. For C., sports=happiness.
