I really write this 'journal for the entire world to see' because I have such a crap memory. Those who know me, know it's true. I remember bits and pieces of growing up...I don't know why. My sisters claim to remember EVERYTHING. I don't want that to happen to my kids, so I document our entire lives so they can see it when they are older. And they will be forced to remember.
This weekend we took a day trip to Ikea. One of my favorite places in the world. Cheap things, fun things for the kids to do, hubby stays relatively happy if we don't spend a lot of money....
We also did some of this:
Play-doh. Does anyone else hate play-doh? I love how creative the boys get with it, but I HATE cleaning it up!
Jack and Porter painted:
And Jack painted his face. And his arms. And his belly....
Gus worked on sitting up:
A truck had a honey butter sandwich for lunch:
And we played Memory:
In honor of my crap memory. I need practice. Porter beat me. Twice.
Stay tuned tomorrow! Follower prize. But, don't get too excited and expect too much. It's just crap I've made....that I love.....
Sounds like a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you about the play doh. What a mess.

OOOOOOOO......I have never been to Ikea. Did you go to the Schaumburg one?
ReplyDeleteI have a sucky memory myself, so I can sympathize with you on that one. I am constantly writing lists and my 11 year old daughter laughs hysterically at some of the things I write down. Oh well, she'll understand someday (hopefully when she's much older than I am now though).
I used to play with playdoh when I was a little girl, but my daughter never really got into it.
I can't believe how big Gus is already! You have such beautiful boys Kirsty.
How funny-that sounds like my weekend! The play-doh, the trucks in food-I can relate!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are having a lovely weekend! Courtesy of my wee niece, there is still aqua play doh stuck in at least one crevice of the wood floor in my family room.
