A quick summary of our latest adventures: Jude demonstrating proper form when eating chocolate peanut butter straight from the jar. (He did share it with Lil Sis.)
Jada's trendy 'do, courtesy of big brother:
Calvin's latest quotes:
"Mom, I'm never ever gonna go to the bathroom again."
"*gasp* Why is the moon following us?!"
He also finished a long-winded apology (which was rather forced due to a lecture) with an appropriate sounding 'Amen'.
...here's his 1st missing tooth (he let Andy pull it right out!)
A few quick examples of what mothers of small children get to witness from day to day: the crushed milk jug
The white surface mural with a permanent marker (boy, I wish I got to it earlier...rubbing alcohol is effective, but only if the ink is fresh. Apparently. Maybe I should try fingernail polish remover?) As a side note, it is a huge blessing having extra food storage in our basement.
And don't worry, they didn't forget the floor. And by "they" I mean my thirdborn, who claims he "accidently" colored on the fridge. And who has a strong affinity for the permanent variety of markers, expressing it as often as he can get his hands on them.
A sneak peak of Christmas pictures: this is not a purposely creative shot, but rather the product of tripping over the tripod in the sprint to get to the natural-looking pose in heels.
Fall fun
Another failed attempt of that elusive perfect shot:
Have a great week!

#1 Chocolate pb--yum!!
#2 Always, always get a kick out of your photo out-takes
#3 Would love to see a video clip of you tripping over the tripod (totally sounds like something I'd do!) ;o)
#4 A possible marker solution--take a dry-erase marker and color over all the permanent and then erase--it works on a dry-erase board, maybe it is worth a shot on the fridge?
#5 If you try #4 and it does not work at least you have the opportunity to add your own doodlings for artwork that would be more your style. ;o)
Oh no---the frig art!!! What *is* that magnetic attraction between little people and permanent markers??!!
How's Calvin's bathroom resolution going?? haha! And it's always nice to throw an AMEN at the end of things to make it sound more official. :)
