My boy

"Whoever is happy will make others happy too." -- Anne Frank

Today was like all of the rest of our typical summer days. We had swim and a stop at the post office. We stayed home for the afternoon and had a swim after dinner. It was really a fine day until about 4pm. Then, it just all went out the window.

The boys have a loft of sorts, it looks like a castle with a twin on top (Cam's) and a double on the bottom. (Sawyer's) Occasionally, someone will jump off the top onto the bottom. Today, Sawyer did that, getting his shirt stuck on one of the pieces. Cam had to lift Sawyer's shirt off the bed in order for him to get down. Naturally, the shirt ripped.

After that, they found a bag of toys that they had acquired on our trip to Iowa. Then, they began writing all over their bodies with some tattoo markers they found in the bag. They thought they would write on their faces like football players. They really looked more like native Americans.

Cam put a single plastic step stool on top of a 2 step stepstool, got on the kitchen counter and pulled down all of the confiscated play weapons that were on top of our kitchen cupboards.

I could use a glass of wine.


The baby is up to some real fun these days. He's enjoying cheerios (he loves to eat them. getting them in his mouth is a bit of a struggle, however. he can pick them up but he can't figure out how to let go. He gets them in there, though...) and bananas. He still dislikes green beans.

He can get just about anywhere with rolling and is getting so close to crawling. He loves to get up on his toes, too! And I think I'm busy *NOW*.
