I promise I do spend time with my kids, I just don’t have a lot of time to write about it, apparently.
Let’s see.
So, Carson is taking advantage of his mobility and cuteness and now stands and begs while Rick cuts up fruit for breakfasts & lunches every morning. He semi-stomps his feet until he gets my attention so I can tell Rick to notice the little hungry person next to him (since you know Captain Oblivious won’t see him himself).
Carson also loves to do high-five and will *sometimes* show us how big he is. Dinnertime is hysterical …

Innocent until proven guilty
Carson fell/tripped/slipped and started crying in the kitchen.
Mallory (from next to me on the couch) quickly says “it wasn’t me!”.
Just Ask Dem
Mallory got new Ariel princess underpants yesterday. As I was folding my not-new and non-princess boring underpants, I told M that I wish I could get new underpants. Mallory said “well, you can get Ariel ones”. I told her I don’t think they make Ariel princess ones for mommies.
She said “Yes they do. You just have to ask them”.
Biker Girl
Here is my very un-mac-like attempt at a video montage of Mallory & her new bike. I hope you like the music – I will be using it for something more appropriate at a later date, I’m sure.
Nice hair, dude.
This is a lost video from the wintertime. Enjoy.
That’s what she said
I can’t believe how much I’m not blogging lately. Things have gotten really busy with my photography business, which is good because it justifies the photography gadgets I’d probably want to buy anyway, but it means I don’t have the energy to remember and record all the funny things my kids do and say. I need to get back on track with that, even if it means carrying around a little notebook to write them down.
But, here’s a funny from yesterday. Mallory wanted to carry in my laptop bag yesterday and told us that she is “super ‘trong” (super …
Park this
Just some pictures I took of my sweet girl at the state park near our house.
Ladybug, by Mallory
Mallory drew me this picture the other day. Do you know what it is?
Here’s the legend if you need help. She didn’t draw a U but other than that, she drew and then wrote LADYBUG.
Monkey
Here are some pretty horrible pictures of Mallory at rock-climbing class. I had to shoot through the window for most of these and then the times that I did have the door open, I had to quick snap before kids tried to escape. LOL. They’ll be back in the big gym next week so I’ll have a better opportunity to get some action shots.
LOVE THIS ONE!!!
Prob-ley
Tonight in the car, I asked Mallory if she did something (I can’t remember what it was right now). She said “Let me think, umm, prob-ley yeah. Well, umm, prob-ley yes.”
Also while driving, we were behind grandma white-hair who was going 10 MPH under the speed limit. I yelled “HURRY UP!!!”. Princess Sassy Pants says from the back seat “Mom, they can’t hear you”.
Rick & I aren’t allowed to say NO to Mallory anymore. Every time we do, she comes back with “It’s not nice to say no”. There are a million other things she tells us it’s not …
