A Model, Really???

I was cleaning out my pictures on my computer and forgot I saved this picture from when I was working. I was reviewing ads in the UK and was sent to a department store equivalent to Nordstrom. And this beauty was on the landing page.

He looks like he just rolled out of bed and threw on a sweater to hide his pj's. And perhaps he has a bit of a hangover from the night before. It makes me laugh.

One Handsome Little Dude

I came across a pattern for a little boys tie and of course had to try it out.

Nothing super fancy, it's just velcro in the back.

Surprisingly, once the tie was on Stew he didn't care about it.

New Hair Gel

Stew decided the peach yogurt he was eating would be better in his hair. He really worked it in well. The sad part is that I was five feet away from him when he did it, I just wasn't paying attention.

The Search Is Over

Alton Brown is a genius. He has the best sugar cookie recipe ever! Stewart and the kids didn't want to wait to frost them, they had to just eat them warm. I normally am not a huge fan of sugar cookies, but I must admit these are good.

Here is a link to the recipe on Food Network: Sugar Cookies

Boxes and Laundry Basket Fun

We have a ridiulous amount of boxes at our house. The kids love it though. They can entertain the kids for hours whether they are coloring them or just turning them into all sorts of things.

Stewie would get a little claustrophobic after a few minutes in the box. (He takes after me.) But Evie could last forever.

Evie's being a robot.

And Laundry basket rides from Daddy never get old.

Pure enjoyment and a lot of squeals.

It's a nice little workout for the puller as well. I must admit that I don't last long with them both in the basket.

First Sleepover

Evie had her first sleepover this week with Grandma Patsy and her cousin Emily.

She's watching out her bedroom window waiting for Grandma to come.

She kept telling me that Stewie and I couldn't come. She was so excited.

Grandma Patsy worked her magic and made the girls rice dogs. Evie chose to have blue and named her "Blueberry" but I think it was under peer pressure because Emily's dog is pink and is named "Strawberry". Evie has since changed the doggie's name to "Fruitloop".

She had so much fun and can't wait for the next sleepover.
