DIY By Ben

Look Mom I can tie my shoes!!!

After seeing Owen's video, Ben really wanted me to get one of him tying his shoes.  We've been working on it for a couple of weeks.  He's almost got it down.  This video is probably too long, but he's verrry into it!

(We went for the bunny ear method, which was foreign to me,  after the other way seemed too frustrating.)



Owen's Allergies and Goofy Stuff

Owen was extremely lucky while playing one of those arcade games with "the claw" and came home with a unicorn that he fittingly named Sparkles. Framp and Sparkles' dad is the dog pillow pet and now  needs a unicorn pillow pet to be their mom to complete their blended family.

While I was getting ready one morning last week this note was slid under the bathroom door.

"Dear Mom, From Spies, We are spying on you. I'm a tax spy, Owen's a cowboy spy. P.S. We're a going to spy on you again."


They were serious.

This is what bedtime really looks like.
