She's a Maneater

L built a cage for her brother today. He happily stay in his cage for about 20 minutes before the "woman you will not trap me" testosterone based syndrome set in.



Mothers, hide your little boys. She's a maneater

Playdate

L had a friend (K) over for a playdate, they made cupcakes! Think they had fun?




Fun side note, my friend Jamie (K's mom) is an awesome mom and cook, but doesn't bake so the mixer scared the shit out of K! It was hilarious!

Senior Picture Pose

Senior pictures look much different today, but if T had been born 30 years ago this is the pose he may have taken for his senior pictures.

It Happened

I once went to lunch with a friend and her 2 year old daughter several years ago, before I had kids. My friend picked the location - the deli of Hy Vee (an area grocery store). Her daughter was being ornery (actually she was just being 2) and my friend said to her daughter "That isn't the way you behave in nice restaurants". I had a great laugh about it - it was the DELI AT HY VEE not a nice restaurant! Besides, who willing eats there except old people? For many many many years I have made fun of Amy about that comment.

Fast forward to today, I was out running errands and found myself at Target during lunch time. No big deal, I have eaten there several times before, except today was different, after battleling for several minutes (felt like hours) with L to behave I opened my mouth and out came the words "This isn't how you behave at nice restaurants". OMG. Seriously I just said that.

Of course I had to tell my friend. Her response "what goes around comes around" - there will be a lot coming around.

T-man

Because the blog is missing photos of T....

Her Father.

Dude doesn't know this, but L's real dad is Richard Simmons
