Cheerios Parking Garage!


I had to post this as it took about 2 min. from conception to
ready-to-go. And I think I'm going to get a lot of bang for
the buck out of this one. The boxtabs are the ramps, I made
parking spots with a sharpie. The whole thing's taped right
to the coffee table for stability.

As a bonus, Cheerios come with some cool lego cars right
now. I think next time I'll save up two cereal boxes and
make a two-level one. That should be fun all over again. :)

When Mom's Sick

We get bored...

I almost caught Sam before he tried to drink the rest of the prune juice, but he spilled it on the carpet.
Then I almost caught Paddy & Isaac before they squeezed my (blue, gritty) face scrub into the vent.
Then, I almost caught Sam before he pulled the papers from the computer desk and threw them everywhere.
Luckily, I turned around while I was cleaning up the papers and saw Sam. He was suspended in the gap between the couch and half-wall, one arm on each, with a bright yellow smiley sticker on his forehead, babbling what could only be, "Mom, I can't quite reach kitty's food? Mom?" He fell into my arms. (and where do I put the couch now?)

Good thing I'm feeling better now, huh?

A History of Sinks


Why I can't leave the stepstool up...

He wants to wash his hands like the big kids...

Just a little over a year ago...

What's Wrong With This Picture?


A little quiz! Do you see it? No, it's not the cat food, I left
that there. Hey, what's that orange piece of plastic? I
walked by it twice wondering what toy that went to before
realizing the truth. Things clicked together in an instant.
The plastic bag in the sink...did I throw that in there? Weird.
Patrick running suddenly upstairs while I was helping Sam
and then re-appearing a couple of minutes later. Aha! That
little mouse! That's my CHEESE!












The extra-large sharp cheddar block, complete
with gnaw marks. I stuck it in a bag and put it
in the fridge, we'll see if anyone notices...

Toga Boy Strikes Again
























Pants? I left them awhile ago. Lovely stylish
turtleneck? I really tried, but it wouldn't part
with me.

Welcome to the Tower, Sam!


Sam is now an official tower-climber...we might just need
another one of these contraptions. They are awesome.
