Because I might need it one day

I love my kids!

Dandelions

...in their fluffy white puffball stage
are not lollipops.


Having older sibs
(and plenty of dandelions in the backyard)
I just figured Three knew that.
But I handed him one
and he just popped that sucker
right in his mouth!



Apparently, they don't taste good.
Poor guy.

Life happens!

Mother's Day

If your kid doesn't want to be in the picture,
just gather everyone together behind them
and take the picture anyway...

Hey, at least they're all in the picture!

Happy Mother's Day!

Big Sisters

Warning!
If your baby has a big sister
then when you get out of the shower
you might find this:


Love it!

Hide and Seek

I've mentioned before how Three likes to put things in odd places.

Here's a bouncy ball in our pasta drainer:



Can you find Thomas?



I looked all over for Three's milk cup one day,
only for it to be discovered the next day
....in the toy box.


Yes, well, seeing as how he has a tendency to put things in odd places, it's probably not a good idea to give him anything of importance. Yet DaddyMan willingly handed over his glasses.

And then didn't watch him.

And then couldn't see when it came time
to find the glasses that Three, of course,
took off with.

Any guesses on how long it took
to find them here?


Yeah, I'm guessing DaddyMan won't be
handing over his glasses
anytime soon.

Laundry

Actual conversation:

Me: Didn't you wear that shirt yesterday?

One: Yeah.

Me: Don't you have clean clothes in your drawer?

One: Yeah.

Me: Well why did you wear this shirt again?

One: Cuz I like it.

Poor Dolly

Two: Hey Mom, look what I found!!!

Me: What?!

Two: My dolly's head!

Yup! Just a normal conversation
in the Mucho household!

Sunday

What?
A Sunday picture
not in front of our door?
That's because yesterday
was a fabulous spring day
and we spent the morning
at our favorite park:
Remember? At least one kid
has to be upset
or making a face
in all pictures!

Check out these rad hats
the kiddos get to wear now
thanks to DaddyMan's
brush with skin cancer:


Jealous?
Actually, most of our friends
all have their kids wear hats too
so it's really not a big deal.
Maybe it's a northwest thing.
We just made a point this year
to get hats with UV protection.
We got ours at a local store,
you can find some here.

Excuses, Excuses

Sorry I've been absent.

This one has had pneumonia:

This one is getting in three of his molars:

Fun times at our house!

I've been finishing up
the Welcome Home quilt
and trying to keep it top-secret
from here on out to resist
tempting my friend to look
now that it actually looks
like something!

I'll be back soon!
