Mom, are you watching me? Sunday, July 19, 2015. I love party planning, and it is so much easier and more fun when I raid Pinterest for ideas, then tweak them as needed! Cheap homemade invitations on cardstock, trimmed to fit in basic envelopes. Font: Pieces of Eight. Clip art: Galleon sail ship. X marks the spot, of course! I would have hung it on our front door with a wreath hanger, but our front door had a little incident the day before the party. Tempera paint on poster board, hung with twine. Cut wa...

Mom, are you watching me? Sunday, July 12, 2015. A conversation with macaroni. Tater's favorite video these days is Yo Gabba Gabba! So she has been singing the party in my tummy song, and at dinner tonight, she had an interesting conversation with the macaroni on her plate. T: You cooled down? Ok, come to the party in my tummy! Macaroni (voiced by T): Oh it's so fun! T: (to the next forkful) Well, you are sick, so you can't come to the party. You better go home and rest. Get well soon, ok? M: It's so fun!

http://momareyouwatchingme.blogspot.com/2015/06/some-fathers-day-doozies.html
Mom, are you watching me? Sunday, June 21, 2015. Some Father's Day Doozies. We had a pretty nice Father's Day this year. We went strawberry picking then out to lunch at B-Dubs. I asked the children if they could give Daddy nice restaurant behavior as part of their gift to him, and it worked for the most part! Spork was most delighted when we discovered that there were a few red raspberries to be had. We only had enough for one pint, which he desperately wanted to claim for himself. He said he was...Straw...

Me: We have a new Netflix show that I think you will like. Nugget: Is it (Bill Nye the Science Guy) non-fiction? Tater was originally posing for this shot spread-eagle cheerleader style but since Dora panties are not appropriate blog fodder, I requested that she cross her ankles. Spork daintily demonstrated. Tater first day of school Sept '14.

Mom, are you watching me? Sunday, April 12, 2015. We have been staying home the past few Easters and really love it! For the second year in a row, Grammy and Grandpa AND Grandma and Papa came to visit, making it a very special holiday for the children. No worries though, I returned before the children got out the confetti, sequins, glue, hair dryer, and shrink wrap. And now they are gold dollars! It was such a gorgeous day, we finished it off with a trip to the zoo and playground before coming home for d...

Mom, are you watching me? Saturday, June 27, 2015. Tater burped, and Spork responded, "Oh, that's classy! When trying to dissuade Spork to drink water from the local splashpad, I calmly explained, "Little kids sometimes pee in the splashpad, then the water goes down the drain and into pipes and shoots back up for you to play in.so you shouldn't drink it." He soaked in the information, then a grin grew over his face and he replied, "So I can pee in the fountain? Not the takeaway message here, Spork! He sh...

Mom, are you watching me? Thursday, August 14, 2014. Back to School 2014. The children fought tooth and claw over a used Brita filter last week. This mama is counting down the days until school starts. Tuesday, August 12, 2014. So dear cousin Cabbage (the Nugget's birthday buddy) turned 4, and since they moved back to the Midwest, we were able to road trip it out to celebrate with her! Cabbage did not want to have the birthday song sung to her, but she faced down her fears. Spork and Uncle T. Mommy, this...

Four and proud of it, shell-shocked mama and all. Top 10 Challenges of Spork at 4. 10 Questions, a lot of 'em. They say the average four year old asks about 400 questions a day.
