Just spent several minutes trying to convince C that she does not need to remove her shirt to wear her new apron. I even went so far as to put an apron on over my clothes to make the point.
I'll let you guess who won that argument.
'Cooking' while fully clothed is apparently a UO with the 2 y.o.

Took all 3 kids to trader Joe's and Kroger so MH could get a break. It was busy and crazy, but we are set for the week!

Big hits here: Lego table Build your own robot (actually agree appropriate) $2 fan from Chinatown Spiderman happy meal toy Which build your own robot? We got one that is a little easy but it was still his favorite. I think he would love a different one

I really like this one because it doesn't require following directions to make it work. He's already made 3 variations

My In laws just got back from the Texans game and we were supposed to meet them for dinner. She’s not feeling well though so they’re staying in. 😩

I slid with H down the super big hill and whitewashed both of us. I was wearing my glasses and literally couldn’t see where we were going. It was terrible. Otherwise we had fun, and as expected S didn’t really want to sled.

I finally looked at Madison's HW packet. She has to make a building. As we were brainstorming ideas I stupidly suggested a papier mache death star. Amateur move. So it looks like that will be our project the next couple of days.

The decor is still up. Maybe Tuesday when I have the day off.
Why is it so cold? My eldest cat is not happy. He hates cold almost as much as I do.

Cs favorite has been this It was quite flimsy putting it together and I doubted it would work but it’s much more sturdy built and pretty cool. T got this too from FIL. He likes it and so does the baby.

I’m bringing dessert tomorrow. 6 adults, 6 kids- ages 2- 5.
I’m not the best cook. And feeling VERY lazy. Any ideas for something quick I can make? Bonus points for bite size so no one has to cut anything

Make a pan of brownies, so people can have can have brownie sundaes.

I'd buy two of those and cut them in bite size pieces (or 1 with a tray of brownies cut up) and call it a day.
