First of all, here are my kids on the first day of school!
My crazies |
We also found a friend on our back wall a couple of weeks ago. The kids affectionately named him Jack.
By affectionate, I mean progressively so. When Craig brought him inside the house in the jar, he had it behind his back. Chloe innocently meandered over and asked him what he had, and when this monstrosity was revealed, she shrieked and screamed and scrambled like a madwoman onto her bed and forcefully insisted that Craig take it OUT of the house from her room. We both went in and explained that tarantulas are relatively harmless, not to mention this one was in a jar and could not hurt her. Minutes later she broke herself away from her bed and blanky and was tapping the glass to get a closer look at him. Craig wanted to keep him, but when he managed to crawl to the top of the jar, when we previously thought he couldn't, precariously close to the LARGE holes Craig had stabbed through a paper towel at the top of the mouth, I said, NOPE, Jack's got a family to go home to, let's make that happen!. Craig let him go on the way to church the next morning. He was so large we could see him still sitting on the rock he was emptied onto on the way home hours later. I'm sure he was just waving goodbye.
And Odell turned 3!!
She loves her new Merida toys |
And her towel finally from Grandma!! |
I attempted to use cookie cutters to make small cakes. Didn't turn out how I planned, but she LOVED the princess theme. |
This weekend we are getting together with some family and barbequeing it up for Labor day weekend! So excited to have a break. See you in another month probably. :-)
