We are watching Madagascar 3. Ewan turned to me and said "Hey mom, God bless the USA."

Hula hooper

She can hold her sugar!

Goodnight dear Mara. I think the red hand colored by the red marker adds a nice touch...notice, she had to draw with her left hand to color the right. Maybe my left-handedness will pass on to one of my children!

Long day of shopping. This is our 4th store...

Mara: I want my friend Ewan. (Ewan is sleeping in Karyn's and Evelyn's room. He and Mara share a room and that is what she wants tonight.)

Mara: I'm crying with my eyes right here.

Mara: I'm crying with my eyes right here.

Me: Mara, go to bed
Mara: I don't want to. I'm crying my eyes.

Love being a mom

Good morning!

Brian and I went on a date tonight and the kids had a new babysitter. I asked Ewan how liked the new babysitter. He said "Yeah. I liked her, but she didn't sit on us."

Markers for dinner

At the beach.

On our way to the beach.

Ewan made up a song about this. He said they looked like Cinnamon Boobs.

Karyn: Ewan, how old is mommy? Ewan: 20.....I don'...

Karyn: Ewan, how old is mommy?
Ewan: 20.....I don't know
Karyn: How old is daddy?
Ewan: 40

Mara's coaster taco...yum

On our way!

Me: Mara, what are you doing?
Mara: I washing yeg (leg).
Maybe it's like a buttermilk bath with yogurt?

Minecraft Farming

Karyn and Evelyn are playing Minecraft.....which I dislike very much, but, I enjoy hearing the dialog "Here Evelyn, here is a sterilized bucket to milk Patience."

Ewan graduation

The kitties did it.

I don't remember the "2's" being so terrible with our older kids.

Just chillin'

"No! Can't!" Mara doesn't want Daddy to go to work.

Ewan asked me "Do you think I am handsome?"
Me "Yes, very handsome."
Ewan "I love my handsome so much."
