A Busy Winter’s Day
Today was Drew’s birthday party, at Pump It Up again, and Brian once again ruled the air hockey table! He enjoyed bouncing and seeing some of his Goddard school friends. I stayed home with Kendall and had fun playing with Boo, the toy food, the shopping cart, and the play kitchen. Kendall talked on the phone a lot, and was a very busy little lady, shopping, cooking, giving Boo a lot of rides in the cart. 🙂 I was busy this morning, trying my hand at making some Star Wars snowflakes....

This morning on the way to school, Brian started to cry softly out of nowhere–we asked what the matter was, and he said it was Mrs. Boswell’s 40th birthday, and he’d forgotten to make her a card! Poor kiddo. We tried our best to scrape some supplies together with what we had in the car–a sheet of paper from a Red Hat pad, some pens, a highlighter, and some stickers from Brian’s workbook did the trick! He was able to make this card for her on the drive from...
Read MoreCuddly Boba
Kendall just adores the Boba Fett alarm clock she got for Christmas from Brian–she hugs him and wants to keep him in her bed! He’s pretty angular and made of hard plastic, so he can’t be all that comfortable to snuggle with.. So I found a cute, much cuddlier Boba Fett for her (yes, of course they make such a thing!) and she now loves him, too. 🙂 Aww, baby’s first (er, second) bounty hunter! Also included, super-bundled Kendall from this morning! We could hardly...

Just some shots of Miss K being cute! She loves that Black Bean toy, and holds it by the ears! I think she likes the big eyes that stare, too–“jiro jiro!” What is that thing, you ask? Black Bean is a Mameshiba: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6m44rPoXng http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rfF1b_s6KRw I realize that probably doesn’t help one bit. 😉...
Read MoreNico’s Birthday
Today was Nico’s birthday party, held at Chuck E. Cheese again this year. Honestly, going there is stressful enough for us, but Brian started off our day by really stressing us out. We’d bought Nico’s present months ago, a Lego Creator set that I knew he wanted, and that was really hard to find. We’d taken it out last night to wrap it up, but ran out of time. Brian woke up early this morning, crept downstairs to play, found the Lego set, and proceeded to open it up...
Read MoreSaturday, from Sketching to Skating to Sushi
Today was another busy Saturday..! Brian did some sketching in his Darth Vader notebook (pretty awesome tree, right?) and made me a steam picture in the bathroom this morning. Kendall really loves her hot cocoa pajamas, and loves to point out the hearts. We ran some errands today and Brian saw this gigantic Darth Vader doll–he liked it a lot and tried to shove it into the cart, but we got him to settle for posing for pictures with it. We had Chik-fil-A for lunch, which is always a...
