Done

Summer vacation that is.

In honour of summer
Ben and I took to the kitchen
and baked a batch of Back To School cookies
for the neighbourhood.

Fun times I tell you
for this sometimes gloomy
sometimes rainy 
sometimes neither 
sort of holiday Monday.

And he didn't nap 
so we had to do something to pass the time 
with JOY!!!  
Rather than napless whining.
So we cooked.
And he ate. 
And liked.
But then decided the man 
who had no limbs or head
was perhaps a bit under cooked 
and put him back in the oven...
Oh? There also seems to be a baby on the burner
ummm...
anyway, sweet little hand me down kitchen set 
(or "chicken" set according to Ben)

In other news?  I'm ready for tomorrow.
Well, as ready as I can be without knowing the kids.
And I may blog again some day.
Right after my new MacBook arrives 
and I get wireless 
and can blog while I"m upstairs 
and the dude is falling asleep in his own room.
Yesterday?
I would have had 1 hour and 45 minutes 
of blogging time 
as he shouted 
MOM, MAMA, MOMMY, MOOOOOOOM, repeat.
Today?  
30 seconds to snore with only one MOM.

In honour of back to school a bit of a Ben-ism

Playing with his birthday letters on the fridge.
I get the camera to show how he has sorted out the blue ones.
I think, wow, he sorted out the blue ones.
Camera in hand he puts the red A in the middle.
Hmmm
I say nice work Ben.
He says, pointing at the Oo's 
what sounds like "vowel"
then points at the A
and says what sounds like "A shit"

I get stuck on the "vowel" part....thinking WTH?

Turns out it was an "OWL"
wearing an "A SHIRT"

Go figure.
