All in a day's work.... (or life with a 2 yr old..)

Yes. We have been welcomed into the world of 2-yr-old-ness with open arms. Very open arms. Very extended, open arms. Nearly grabbing open arms...

It's pretty dang....adventurous.

Why is it that the days I feel like such a great mom---end up being the days that we rack up major expenses due to Christian's antics?

It was a pj day. And Im okay with that.

Start off by feeding elmo 'MEAT'.

Then we brought in the giant boxes left by amy w. and build a fort. Its a pretty sweet fort.


Since I was right there to supervise, I decided the occasion warranted the use of markers.

The inside of the fort is gorgeous. Trust me.

Im feeling super awesome at this point. What a COOL MOM i am!!

Channing thrilled as usual to be alive:



We even got showers and everything!

But then I walk out to see this:

(it was all over the other couch, too, but that picture didn't turn out very well.)


And after his 'admonishment', Christian said: 'oh, it's okay, mommy, it's okay!' No, Christian- it's NOT okay... But a pat on the back and a big hug certainly makes it a little more okay...

So we turn on BYU COUGAR MARCHING BAND SHOW so i can gather my wits and try to clean up. (it won't come off, btw. I've tried pretty much everything..) So I clean what I can. aka the dishes. Christian wants to wear the dishwashing gloves.
B/C manly men wear gloves and dance around as naked boys with footballs. Doesn't get much manlier than that.


Or cuter.


Ugh. This kid has GOT ME.



and Im okay with that.
