Sunday at the Jefferson

mud pits at "the pit"

We love going to "the pit" to play so we decided to spend saturday morning there. It was lots of fun but suddenly became even more fun once the kids discovered muddle puddles...and how fun it was to splash in them.


The fun lasted probably 10 minutes or so until they both started complaining of being cold and wet. so what did we do next? took them to lunch at jud and ing's pantless and then to costco, again - minus pants. classy, i know.

my studious one

a mouthful of raisins

as we continue to try and allow our kids to only eat what we eat for dinner, we are constantly surprised at their likes and dislikes. for instance the other night, both kids made a great effort at having butternut squash risotto. sulley was having so much fun with it, than she in fact asked for a "leaf" for her risotto. of course, i gave her a piece of my spinach salad and the next thing i know, she's rolling risotto up in the leaf. uh, whatever. tonight, colton was calling the carrots in his beef stew - hot dogs. again, whatever works. food continues to be very hot and cold with my two but these days, i have to say i'm proud of our progress.

I snapped these two pics the other day when my kids suddenly decided they LOVED raisins.

not so flattering

her raisins almost look like she's got a mouthful of "chew" in those cheeks.
