Play Dough cRaZy!

I don't know about your kids, but mine are cRaZy about Play Dough.
The {relatively} clean freak that I am, makes my poor kids keep their play dough contained on a cookie sheet and they are only aloud to play with one color each, at a time. I have to admit, it is a bit anal-retentive, but less mess always makes for a much happier Mommy.
I love seeing the concentration on their faces as they work so hard at creating their masterpieces.
And since I am using {relatively} old pictures (notice the outfit that Audrey is wearing...these were taken the same day as the pics on the bumps-n-bruises post) I can't for the life of me remember exactly why Grant is holding up 8 fingers. Use your imagination. You are all creative and funny...what you think the reason is for Grant holding up 8 fingers?
This is kinda a pathetic 'cheese' face if you ask me.
Voila! This is the finished product to all of Grant's hard work.
Again, not exactly sure what this particular masterpiece is suppose to be but when I tried asking I got he ole' "Talk to the hand cause the face ain't listenin'!"
Okay, that is better. A little peek from my almost 5 year old. I simply cannot believe he is already going to be a handful. I mean, he is already a HANDFUL, but now he is really going to be a handful.
Speaking of Grant turning 5, I also can not wait until Sunday for his big Super Hero Birthday Bash. I think I have everything all bought/ordered/ready for the big day. Now I just have to wait like a kid at Christmas-time.

Rockin' the Blues Clues

So who do you vote for as "Rockin' the Blues Clues"?

A. Audrey
B. Grant
(Something makes me think I am going to pay for this someday when Grant is bigger than me. Until then, I have all of the power!)

Silly Super Heros

What do your kids do when they are bored on the weekends?
Mine like to dress up in costumes and pretend they are super heros. Or maybe they were just doing a test run for Grant's 5th Birthday party this coming Sunday. His actual birthday is Monday but we are having a small party with family and friends this weekend and he party has a Super Hero theme. I think I am more excited than Grant since I have a little surprise up my sleeve. Lets just say Grant is going to be FIRED UP when he sees it. Can't wait to share pics of it all!
This is the 'fire power!" pose.
Ta-da!
Super hero Ta-da!
My little Spidey stud-muffin.
The spectacular duo plotting their next move.
Yes, they were a little bored this weekend, but on Saturday they did get to go spend the day with their Grandma Sue, and cousins, Austin, Bailey and Carter. While they were with Grandma, I got to spend the day with my BFF Lisa for a day of eating, shopping and just plain catching up.
My chiropractic treatments seem to have been helping a bit as my neck and shoulder pain seems to be subsiding a bit. Or, maybe it was just the retail therapy that helped!
