• Pickle

• 4 kidlets, many plain pancakes, some chocolate-chip pancakes, and enormous amounts of hugs and noise. G'morning, Sunday. (Nov 17)

• Me: *pretend eating pretend food* Mmm. You're a very good chef.

We learned about taste in school.




Which is better, White or Yellow?

Let's make them both and and find out!

Two big bowls

White was better - but mixing them both was the best!

Sleepover Fun!

The boys had their first real sleepover with our favorite twins!


Couch? No - it is toy and blanket mountain!

He can sleep *anywhere*

Paul sometimes likes to sleep on the floor of Joss's room as a "sleepover." Tonight, though, he opted to curl up on the rocking chair! Sweet dreams!
