The Little Mister is 10 Months Old!

Guess what happened today?!?!

That’s right…our sweet Little Man has been tearing it up for 10 months!

Catching a photo of him sitting still is nearly impossible these days, but I sure tried!

The only way to really get a still shot is catch him when he’s locked down in his highchair…
(and covered in food)

Or stuck in a Big-Sister-Induced-Headlock…
(The Little Miss is convinced that he’s ready for Wright Family Wreste-mania)

One thing is for sure, with the Little Mister and the Little Miss around
there is NEVER a dull moment at our house!

Our 10 MONTH OLD Little Mister is a joy and a treasure!

Blue + Yellow = Messy Fun

It was 4:00 one afternoon, and still a few hours until Daddy was scheduled to come home.  I had two stir-crazy Little Babes in my care, who were itching for some excitement.  What was a Mama to do?!?

Make edible paint, of course!

A little flour,
a little water,
stir in some blue and yellow food coloring,
and we were in business.

Geniuses that they are, my Little Artists quickly discovered the magic of mixing blue and yellow paint…to make GREEN!

And yet, though their outcomes were similar, their methods for discovery (err…mixing) were not.

But regardless of technique, or the mess created, one thing was for sure…

We had FUN.

Alas, my “creative” ideas to divert and entertain my children often do not pan out.  But thankfully, this day I found a winner.

And guess what happened next?  Sweet Daddy came home and bathed the two Little Painters.

It was a good day.

Little Miss Smarty Pants

The Little Missy’s preschool class celebrated Father’s Day this Thursday.  So Daddy accompanied her to class and had the best time doing art projects, singing songs, playing games, and eating donuts (i.e., the Little Miss ate and Daddy watched).

Daddy came home with several handmade presents from his #1 (Little) Fan, including this gem…

I keep cracking up thinking about this glimpse into her perceptive 2-year-old mind.  She’s a smart girl…and a sassy one at that!

End Note: After picking her up from school, the Little Miss also informed me that Daddy’s “other jobs” are putting her down for nap and giving her lots of love.  That sounds about right!
