Cooking with your kids

We made some chocolate chip banana bread today.Myra helped!
Then enjoyed the fruit of her labors! Yum.

Ewww...

gross.

Shoes!

We have some good friends who have a little girl just a few weeks older, but significantly bigger than Myra. So when Kate grows out of clothes, Daphne brings me a big bag full! So fun! Yesterday was such a day and the bag included two pair of cute sandals. Myra hasn't been wearing shoes. I am a big proponent of letting kids go barefoot. There is a lot of research (blah, blah, blah)... Anyway, Myra spotted those shoes, made a beeline for them and immediately tried to put them on her feet!I put them on her, and surprisingly, they fit! She motored around in them all evening and objected most strongly every time I tried to take them off her.

That's my girl!

Thanks Oma!!

Oma came to visit us last weekend and besides bringing me some yummy wool, she also brought fresh veggies from home gardens, See's Peppermints (my favorite!), and some homemade jam. As you can see, Logan LOVES jam.He does not, however like to have his picture taken...

"What, lady??"

Peek a boo!!

TWBA: The Quiz...

Weirdly (and a little uncomfortably) accurate. Not bad for a quiz that only has 5 questions...

The True You Values Harmony

You want your girlfriend or boyfriend to be more relaxed, calm, and composed. With respect to money, you spend as little as possible. You think good luck will definitely be yours, someday. The hidden side of your personality tends to be satisfied to care for things with a minimal amount of effort. You are tend to think about others' feelings a lot, perhaps because you are so eager to be liked. When it comes to finding a romantic partner, you base your search on information from your friends.

Who's The True You?

Dinnertime!

It is so nice that she so obviously appreciates my cooking.And in case you were wondering - here are all six of her teeth.
She's never eaten babyfood (by her choice, not mine), so last night she had spaghetti and meatballs with garlic bread. And cleaned her plate.

At least something was clean...
