When It's Quiet

I was making yarn balls for clown day at preschool for his shirt and he was very interested in the yarn. I got a pretty bad headache and decided to go take a break and lay down for bit...

I fell asleep and woke up to this. Haha! This kid!! He was extremely quiet and totally in the yarn zone, I decided to just let it happen and grin and bear the disaster happening right in front of me.

Mom Snuggles

It's hard to get him to slow down long enough to get snuggles these days. I am not nearly as exciting as I once was I guess. Enjoyed our snuggles today as a missed nap time lead to a sleepy boy once the sun started setting. Love this little dude.

Snow!


We have been short on snow this year and I am not going to lie about it, it is getting me down. I love snow, I hate to be one to admit it but I really do kind of like winter. Yes I am not crazy about the bitter cold but it's a little bit of magic when you wake up to the ground sparkling in white. Nature at it's finest. Today was finally warm enough to go play in it for a bit and he loved it. He played hard for a good hour and when we came inside we had to thaw him back out. :))

Dragon Fighter

When it's too cold to go outside for days on end and a package comes with a decent size box you make the most of it. It's not pretty but we did exactly what he wanted us to do to it. I heard a lot of yelling coming from his playroom. When I walked in I saw a full caped little boy riding a boat across the ocean fighting off all the flying dragons. This child is not short on imagination. He lives in a world where dragons and dinosaurs live together and are always flying overhead. Sometimes we seem to live well together and in peace and other times we may be in the middle of dinner and receive a surprise attack from a pterodactyl.

Why Not Be It All?

When I asked him what he was doing he simply replied with "I am a Superhero, Dragon Hunter, Dragon Fighter, Bad Guy".

Earned Himself An Upgrade



So years ago my parents thought they would "bless" us with this weird Amazon frog. Actually we had two at two different times, however let's just say we believe this one likes to live alone. When they brought this frog in I thought, "sure, this thing can't live longer than a year". Here we sit probably about 3 and a half years later. I decided he needed an upgrade in homes and it's time I just admit to myself he is going to be here for awhile. So the lovely tank and decor was picked out by Ryder and I am ashamed to say it's probably about 10 times bigger than his last tank... poor guy. Well hopefully he enjoys the upgrade and I won't regret this. by regret I mean a dead frog Still wondering what I do when he runs out of food. The two inch bag full has lasted years.... are they supposed to outlive the bag of food???

Winter Break

We have had a lot of sickness over this winter break, in fact as it is nearing its end we seem to be still trying to regain some of our energy. These has been the scene for a lot of it. Lots of snuggles and time to rest. <3 I am not hating it.
