Sheesh

I have created monsters...they totally curled up their faces in disgust at the prospect of frozen waffles and said, "why not homemade? It's Saturday?"

So I go to All Recipes and search "easy waffles." Next think I know I am separating eggs and beating whites until the start to form peaks. Sheesh!

Sawyer quote of the day

"Mom, will you tell Ms. Fernandez I'm blind so I can wear these sunglasses all day."

Under No Circumstances!

Sawyer's new favorite catch phrase is "under no circumstances!" He uses it sternly and wrong every time. So, for instance, he's constantly assigning us all roles to play. Dad, "you are the green Ninjago...under no circumstances!" Don't know where it comes from (truly).

Lego's Ninjago is his bag now too. He claims to be a "master or spinjitsu," whatever that is. His interests are getting less cute by the year, from Cars to Ninja Turtles (still a major fav) to Ninjago.

We're getting ready to have a Ninjago party for his 5th birthday. FIVE, people. He is weeks away from being FIVE!

Here he is all geared up for last week's snow day!




Here is the first day of snow...so pretty. They were in school when it came down.



The next day was less impressive.

Easter Origins

I'm sitting in my office tending to some personal biz on the laptop when Ridge comes in and says, "did you know Easter was started in 1930?" Here I'd been assuming it was started more closely following the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Sometime later he comes back with Boys Life Magazine book marked and adds, "here mom...in case you wanted to read that article about Easter."


Woah...my boy just bookmarked an interesting article for me to read. What the?


Meanwhile, Sawyer's hollering from his bed how he's starving and "can you make the biggetht, bethtest breftest ever the in whole world tomorrow?" (He was too busy goofing off during dinner and the kitchen closed before he had his fill.)
