Where Am I?


You might find us on the porch playing dress up, play-dough, drawing, or reading with friends...


Making homemade pizza's (with cookie cutter crusts)


EATING homemade pizzas


Taking naps...


And more naps


You might find us reading ourselves to sleep in a tent...


Sweet dreams little girl


Having a late breakfast, and then rubbing yogurt in our hair, and all over our face.


Look I cut my bangs!


And trying to empty out the pond that was left for us to clean up, and decide what sort of new wall to have built in place of this one. We are about to undergo our first "project" for our house. Turning an inclosed garage into a real bedroom.

And P.S. I might try to change the Thinking Parents header to say something about Summer... not Spring. I just love that girl Madeline.

Ant Bush

Hey little red heads what are you looking for in that bucket?


Oh water balloons? What are those for?

Did you say Daddy was on his way home?

Oh you meant ambush, not "ant bush".



Either way, you better watch out Daddy!

Last Minute Essay

If anyone out there is up for a last minute essay, this one from NPR seems to be a good topic.

How Has Parenting Changed You


They are asking for parents with only one kid. But I would love to have any of you out there who have any number of kids answer this question for my blog. If you feel up for the task I would love to share your story here as a post. I think this is a great topic and am anxiously awaiting Todd's post, he's going to be the first guest (because he has ties to the author of this blog hehehe).

We are back from our vacation and I will resume posting again in the next few days. I hope you all are getting a nice laid back Summer.

Cheers
