We had a wonderful night last night of fun playing Just Dance 2 and after we grown ups were done we let the kids take over. I captured some of their hijinks with my iPhone and have to say that I have never laughed so hard. It also leaves me wondering if we need to pay for dance lessons. I really think the kids could use them. … [Read more...]

He is preparing for his teenage years by taking self-portraits
I needed to get some pictures off a SD card this morning to work on some things and found this little gem. For which I can only assume he is practicing for his teenage years by taking self-portraits of him himself.

Making Cupcakes With Hal
So as much as I have been wanting to make cupcakes, I just haven't given in because of just plain pure laziness. I practically daydream about them but just can't be bothered to actually do anything about them. But then my kid comes along and practically guilts me into it.

Tooth Fairy Letter (You Can’t Get Anymore Sweet)
A couple of days ago Hal lost a tooth, by coughing and it flying out of his mouth (it was very loose, too). To right under his bed. Well I kinda maybe sort of told him that the tooth fairy would only come if he had the tooth under his pillow. But I finally consented that maybe she would know he lost it and come anyway. Well I the tooth fairy came tonight and found this letter under his … [Read more...]
