Mallory does lots of artwork at school but she did this at home and her accompanying descriptions were too funny to not share.

Time is a-flyin'
How on God’s green earth is my little boy three months old already? How is it already July? How have I not yet seen my first firefly of the summer?
This week has flown by, as they have been known to do lately. Both kids are good – I’ll entertain you with some Mallory gems first:
I was helping her get dressed the other night and pulled her jammies up over her belly, maternity-pant-style. She pulled them down and told me not to do that because she doesn’t have a baby in her tummy.
I like to try to have us talk about …
Fun Family Weekend!
I think this past weekend was the first time since early February that Rick didn’t have to go into work at all – and we took full advantage of it. We had invitations to stuff for both Friday & Saturday nights but we waived them both off in favor of hanging around the house.
That was a good decision for us on Friday night…seeing as how Mallory ended up in full meltdown mode at about 6p. We planned to have dinner on the boat and wanted Mallory to go potty before we headed out. She is a pretty regular evening …
More Mallory
Check out this picture Rick sent me yesterday (he was home with the kids because the power was out at daycare due to the storms). The subject of the email was “she’s pumping…”
It’s hard to see, but she has two plastic bottles held up to her chest. I asked her about it this morning and she told me a long story of the nilk (milk) going down into a box and then daddy took the top off and then she did dis (as she moved back & forth) and then she told me she fed her brother.
Hmmm….

Digital
Seeing as how addicted I am to Photoshop these days, I really need to throw in the towel on old-fashioned scrapbooking and just start doing it all digitally. I mean, I already sort of do that by keeping this blog, right?
But I just found these new storyboard templates for Photoshop so now you will be inundated with these too.
Carson @ 12weeks
I mentioned back in April that Rick is trying to work on some project with all of my belly shots and then pictures of me holding Carson as he gets bigger.
Seeing as how Rick has been busy with work and stuff lately, we haven’t been getting the pictures as regularly as he would have liked but we took one last night.
So here is Carson at one week, and then at 12 weeks. I think I was holding him a little higher in the second picture but still – he is such a big boy now!

My Little Lands End Model
I think Mallory could be a model for this Lands End Kids bathing suit – how cute is she?
And here are some pictures that show off our new paver patio…the first is Mallory trying to comfort Carson (“it’s OK, Buddy”), and the second picture is the pumpkinhead’s tiny footprint!
It’s been like a million degrees here this week so I got Mallory a new little plastic pool today. It is perfect for our new patio area ~ Mallory & I hung out today with our toes in the water and ate cherries while Carson snoozed inside.
I had a bunch of …
More from the "watch what you say or it will get thrown back at you by a 2-yr old" files…
Leaving the house yesterday morning, I had the door propped open waiting for Mallory to put her shoes on so she could follow me out to the car.
She looked up at me and said “Shut the door so no bugs come in, MOM.”
Think she’s heard me say that about a bajillion times lately?
