Boys, Boys, Boys!!

There are times I walk into my house and I think, "Wow, what is that smell??" Then I remember, "Oh, yah, It's just all the testosterone!!"

The boys were "helping" Chad with the new cabinet for the basement bathroom. I offered them crayons to draw on the box and they looked at me like I was crazy, and then as though they had one brain and one body they ran and got their hammers (real hammers mind you--with real metal and real wood, no plastic for my boys). AND with sometimes frightening force and gusto they beat the heck out of the cabinet box. Chad threatened them not to hit themselves, the cabinet or each other--which they didn't.

They really were pooped by the time the box was in shreds. And as long as nobody got hurt--all is well.

Anyways, the little girl he sets by has quite the face on in the last pic! I am sure this step will be exciting for everyone. School is fun. I hope you are doing well.

  2. Your house is opposite of mine... we are busy painting nails, playing babies all while dressed up in princess clothes dancing about! Clayton is out of the house with the boys in the neighborhood playing football!!! ( He can't take all the girl stuff!) I know the smell you are talking about - those musty boys!
