Samuel portrait Sept 2009

For some reason this looks like he's a news anchor or weatherman.

Luke portrait 6-6-09

QOTD

Scene: Living room.  Mother and son are building a spindly lego tower.  Tower breaks and falls down.

M: Oh no!

S: What happened?  Did you go big yuckies in your pants?

2 boys

I'm happy to say Luke has graduated from the baby tub so there is now more room for splashing so less water gets on mom.



Although fully able, Luke does not want to sit.

This photo depicts circumstances that led to the inaugural "Naked Time Out." Samuel didn't really deserve the time out he got, but I didn't know what else to do. I said "Yes, you can play in the rain," not realizing it meant a gallon of mud would be smeared all over the house. So we disrobed in the backyard and went straight to timeout. Here's a link to CPS. Nevermind.

QOTD Samuel on procrastination

S: Are we going to the dentist today?

Me: No, tomorrow.

S: Tomorrow never comes.

M: What?

S: Nosh night (last night) I told uncle Paul I would clean the mud off the house tomorrow and he said 'Tomorrow never comes.'

So true. Tomorrow never comes, but oddly enough, we did go to the dentist.

Inspired Sunday

We had some leftover almond pastry filling (impulse buy - it was on clearance). We heated it up and poured it on popcorn. Easiest candied popcorn ever and so yummy.

QOTD Saturday

Daddy: What do you want for breakfast Samuel?
Samuel: M&Ms
Daddy: Sorry you can't have M&Ms. How about a pancake?
Samuel: Yes!
Daddy: What would you like on your pancake?
Samuel: Chocolate!
Daddy: Sorry you can't have chocolate. How about butter?
Samuel: mmmmmm....ok. But I want butter on my pancake and syrup on my butter!
