funny ha ha

Hey Mom what's so funny?

I am having one of those days where everything seems ridiculous.

I can't stop giggling at the absurd and I'm pretty sure Georgia thinks I've lost my mind.

This is one of many laugh out loud moments.

I was looking for a bathing suit on sale and found this.

Happy Friday - Happy Smiling!

notes from the chair

Georgia and I spend a lot of time together in the kitchen.

Eating.

Cooking.

Cleaning.

Singing.

Laughing.

You get the point.

Thought you might like to see two of our daily highchair moments.

Georgia asking for more boo-bay-ees. . .peeese.

Georgia protesting the fact that I call them dishcloths 

(and want them back in the drawer).

"No-no bankies, bankies".

She has a number of lovely, soft, proper blankies.

We must spend too much time in the kitchen if the old, 

scratchy towels have become this appealing.

Bon Appetit!

Chatty Chatty Bang Bang

Georgia is busy.

Really busy.

She likes to narrate as she goes, and goes, and goes.

Hi Dee-Dee.

 Nice crit-crit (cricket).

 Da-Da.

 No-no.

 Walk?

Owww-side (outside).

MOMMY!

Joe-Ja (Georgia) B-oh-t (boat)?

In!

Biiiiiiig B-oh-t.

Hi-ee.

Nigh-night.

MOMMY!

Stuck.

Oh neglected blog. . .

HELLO AGAIN!

 Our September was a bit on the busy side.

New school year.

New daycare schedule.

New Hockey team (Dad's - no they're not that good - yet).

While we are sad to see our green grass turn brown,

and our beautiful garden go to sleep again,

we are really excited to 

get back into the groove!

Please forgive our brief hiatus tomorrow's post will be nice and long.

Monday Monday

Good Morning Sunshine!

We don't (Georgia and myself - Colin not included)

get the Sunday blues anymore

because

We (me) don't work on Mondays this year!

We are having a nice leisurely day

baking

cleaning

and lots of playing.

I love Mondays.

P.S. Georgia started smiling after I reminded her it was Monday.

Hanging on

A two second conversation that started like this. . .

"remember how great our summer was"

turned into a 

diaper bag packing

snack making

sippy cup filling

bathing suit finding

frenzy.

We jumped into the car and headed out for 

one

last

summer

ADVENTURE.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Can't wait for Memorial Day.

No offense Labor Day.

CH CH CH Changes

Georgia and I have a lot of routines.

Our morning routine includes milk for her coffee for me.

A few minutes of the morning news and a few minutes of Postman Pat.

Frozen blueberries and toast for both of us.

and eventually

early morning garden maintenance.

I love our morning routine.

I don't want it to change - I want Fall to wait.

This morning it smelled like Fall.

Oh no (as Georgia would say).
