Living Room Fort




So as much as I would like a clean house, I have little hope of ever having one. Every time I get the couch cushions put back on the couch I walk back in the room, and we have yet, another fort. If not a fort than it is some other creative use of a couch cushion that does not involve sitting on the couch where they belong.


Once again, although it is frustrating when you want your house CLEAN! it is still cute to see their little heads poking out.

Climber


I was just getting out of the shower when Paul comes into the bathroom (sounds sassy, but it wasn't) and asks if I know what my children are doing. Of course I assume that they were watching the Leap Frog movie I put in, since no one was banging on the door and screaming. No luck, Paul found them in the kitchen sink playing in the water.

Ahh! There was water everywhere, on the counter, on the floor. Although that was frustrating, I couldn't help laughing.

Jacob the youngest is my climber, he climbs onto everything, uses chairs, benches, stools, anything he can find to further his purposes. On this day, I think Nathan the three year old just thought, "You know that sure does look like more fun than watching this movie."

The Tricky Leprachaun


I realize that St. Patrick's day is long gone and it is almost Easter, but I am a little slow with this blogging thing.

I love St. Patrick's Day because of that tricky Leprachaun who comes and turns the waffles green (or whatever it is you are eating), and leaves green treats hidden somewhere for everyone. That tricky leprachaun comes up with some new prank every year.

What a great holiday.
