Model Behavior

This week flew. Monday, I spent recovering from working the weekend. In fact, my legs were cramping until Wednesday. Not typical. But they started cramping Saturday night and didn't subside until Wednesday evening. I swear, that there are no comfortable shoes for a twelve hour day spent entirely on your feet. Tuesday, we spent outside - I didn't even bother to dress myself or the kids. We kicked it in our PJs all day. Getting dressed is overrated.




Joe is always quick to snap a picture when he grabs a hold of the camera. A self portrait.





Wednesday, who knows what I did, but it went by fast. Oh yah, I made a bunch of cookies.
So then on Thursday, two girls from work brought over their chittlins for some cookie decorating. Here is my friend Josie and her little girl. Too cute. We'll talk about Josie in just a minute.




The festivities consisted of eating frosting, licking the paint brushes, eating cookies, eating sprinkles, then eating more frosting. Oh to be a kid again. Wait, that is exactly what I did.





The Monet of sugar cookie medium.






I like the messier cookies, with icing pouring over the sides. Staying in the lines is also overrated.




Remember Josie? She crocheted this absolutely darling hat for Mae. And let me tell you, Charlotte knows she's cute when she's wearing it. I snapped a bakers dozen of good pics - each with a different facial expression. They are hilarious. I am convinced Josie needs to open an ETSY store, and sell just these sun hats. They are perfect for summer, they block the sunlight, but are airy and light so as not to overheat your little one.

Tomorrow David and I are going to BB King and Buddy Guy. I can not wait to kick back with a beer and listen to the blues - without any kids. Thank you aunt Mackenzie for babysitting.
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!
