Charlie hugs

Charlie gives the best hugs. He wants them all the time. And he wants to hold on for a long time. Such a lovey.

This morning was a little rough, we have a head cold passing through the house and Jackson was up a few times last night. While I was making breakfast, the kids were in the kitchen with me asking me what seemed like a zillion questions. I finally said, "Guys, I'm not feeling well, I need you to play in the other room while mommy gets breakfast ready." Charlie walked over and gave me a hug around my legs and said "That is so you will feel better mommy."

Melt you heart or what?

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

 

 

 

Of course the sheep socks direct from Ireland!

Avery's finished t-shirt dress!

Excuse the Avery face, she was very happy to wear the dress, not happy to have oatmeal for breakfast!

 

 

This dress is very pretty without embellishments, but I had to add the ribbon and bows to cover my mistakes:) Can't wait for warmer weather so she can wear this without pajama's under it! She added the shoes for a dressier look:)

sweet music, sweet moment

 

I adore this photo.

Having fun with the marble run

 

Just one of those days. Nowhere to go, nothing pressing to do. We're still in our pj's at lunch! So we pulled out the Marble Run that Avery received as a Christmas present, from Henry and Maria. We have so much fun putting this together and watching the marbles race down to the bottom.

Sign of the times

I love this magazine. Today when I called to check on the status of a subscription, I was told the last issue of Wondertime is March 2009.
I'll admit, I don't read a newspaper anymore. I read my news online or watch FoxNews. But I do read magazines. There is just something about sitting in a waiting room or bathtub with a good magazine. This was my only subscription and I am truly sad to see such a wonderufl parenting magazine go by the wayside.
