A day off

Weeelllllll, from "work" anyway. Get to stay home and work! Yay! Yard projects again. So today I finished my cedar tree ring that will double as a flower box in the spring. I plan on doing a few more of these, possibly this weekend.





We got the babus out on her tricycle the other day, playing in the street since the driveway is quite a climb for a 2 (almost 3) year old. Also played with some sidewalk chalk. And by played I mean Riley told me to write stuff and I did.

The car finally got it's shades

Had to go out and get some window tint so the babus could ride in style. Really we are just sick of her fussing about the sun being in her eyes....but it looks nice too.







Here are the "before" pics.

PAAAANCAAAAAKES

Some people out there in this world just eat pancakes, we think that is a shame. The Curtis Dojo has completed some scientific research to find out the difference between pancakes and PAAAANCAAAAKES.


Pancakes will create a very specific reaction.

Exhibit 1 - Notice, a happy child, very common, ordinary.

The dogs are 1/2 asleep, some may even say lazy. This all seems very status quo.




PAAAAANCAAAAAAKES create a different reaction altogether, as you can see here.

Exhibit 2 - A very cool babus indeed.



Dogs? Perked right up, at attention ready to obey any command.




This, is a PAAAANCAAAAKE!!!!


PAAAANCAAAAKE!!!!!!!!


Now, as we understand it there are those among you who do not come to the Curtis Dojo for scientific research. I guess this caliber of PAAAANCAAAAKE science is over your head!

Here's some more elementary research....




The other day Krista came across Riley just randomly singing the I Love My Ducks song (after hearing it daily since it is my ringtone for text messages). We tried to get her to sing but the camera shy got her, she did indulge us in a dance though.
