Hmmm testing 123

Mayday Mayday

somewhere this week I saw someone had written "New Jersey is the only place you can experience 4 different seasons in one week"

sadly true

who has 2 thumbs and is done dealing with stupid weather?!

THIS GIRL

from thick sweaters - to sundresses & shorts

kids were picking lots & lots of flowers for me

rude awakening - the flowers weren't for me..

but we went upto the main house on a delivery mission, where the kiddies were happily rewarded with cookies

YAY COOKIES!

my darling princess was posing for a photo when.....

the discovery was made - - the boy has hit a new stage in the 2's

climbing

and jumping

I've seen boy make this face 100 times a day -

and it's never been so perfectly documented in actual side-by-side compairson
"So I got THAT going for me!"

what in the world kind of princess is this!?

double horn action - that's what kind!

double see-saw action at the swan park

does it get any better?

she wore pom-pom hair

he wore spiderman

and they sat soooooooooo nicely

right before boy broke away & jumped off the third stair & yelled

"Whoa! That was a big jump!"

....and the moment was over

Dan is trying to instill a few important life lessons ...

little things like: don't coat the sponge with stones before you wash the car

and/or keep the sponge AWAY from the stones!!

once they figure out it's work - they leave the scene


funny faces are funny


the shirt of understatement

ferris wheel is still a big hit after all these years!

I scream

you scream

we all scream "DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING!"

my boys

and when everyone does finally roll out of bed... it's to snuggle on the couch

our band-aids are anxiously awaiting their arrival to knees & elbows...

the weather was abfab this weekend -

so the kids were OUTSIDE!

It seemed this weekend -the kids tried to test their limits...

BEGGING for injury

We brought out the water table.. and boy tried to drink as many bugs & pine needles as possible

he was soon invaded by a passing nudist

he then tested the limits of watertable..

it seemed the whole day I had to tell them "NO FEET!!" or "YOU CAN'T STAND IN THERE!"

but tummies were perfectly acceptable?

Boy quickly bolted when I took his soaking wet shirt off

by the time I walked around to the front of the house (its not a very big house)

this is what I discovered

and then climbing

look at his face -

he knows what he is doing is naughty.. but he loves it

while boy was being a terror

girl & I decided to play with the big ball

her chasing & running skills are fantastic

but when she finally gets to the ball...

not so good

girl retired to the house to find an outfit

and boy retired to the see-saw to try & break some bones

eaaassy...

baaalance...

nope

nope

steady...

YEAH!!!!!!!

having conquered the seesaw -he moved on to completely coating himself in mud

but first - he had to get to the mud

through the window of course!

and back out again
