So I may have run out of "healthy" snacks today and in a moment of desperation, grabbed a can of black beans and attempted to pass it off as a bowl of "bean bugs." As in "guess what kids? we're having BEAN BUGS for snack! Squish 'em with your monster teeth!" (ok give me a break, my first born is a boy...this is how we talk in relate-to-little-boy-world.)
And may have actually allowed my three year old access to a paint roller (tangent: WHAT is the official name of a paint roller anyway? what do the painting guys in the white jump suits call them? Do they just throw a hardy "hey mark, toss me that paint roller o'er there will ya?" over there shoulder when they need to switch up?) while finishing up my accent wall (sounds snazzy huh? it is, you should come see. i'm in love.)
And I maybe, just maybe allowed my 21 mos old daughter to eat a little lipstick this morning. (though in my defense, I did tell the girl it's gross, but obviously parents have NO idea what they're talking about. If it's pink and comes out of an amazing swirly container it HAS to taste like heaven...turns out, it doesn't. And the ensuing pink spittle that results isn't all that cool of a clean up item either. Ranks up there with mashed blueberries and grape juice stains.)
BUT Oregon was unusually compliant today and I scored an alarmingly compelling set of pics. (complete with almost everyone looking and smiling at the camera at the same time! a miracle, that is.)
(note the bowl of "bean bugs.")
the three amigos:)
You sound like a fun mommy! And those are amazing pictures! You have such beautiful children!
