Week 2 of Work

For those of you who don't know, today is Week 2 of me working part-time temporarily helping with clerical work (none of that math stuff) for a CPA office. When I got home from my first day of work...Kara and Luke made me this:
Notice in the top left hand corner...it says "wow" or "Mom" :)

And then that blurry picture...."Kara"

Building with Daddy

Overheard during this block building activity with Daddy:

"This is so special, just me and Daddy!!"
(Singing) "Life is better than a royal pink sweater!"
"Daddy, you're so sweet!"


Do you think she enjoyed playing with Dad?

Remembering when it was warmer...


Eight days ago, we got to play at the park WITHOUT coats. I love that weather. By the way, I tried to fix her hat, but that's the way she likes it. What can you do?

Snow Day

Kara and I played in the snow. I wrote "Kara" in the snow. Then she bent down to write something (I assumed it would be Kara) but it was...."MOM." So cute.

(Yes, I know it looks like Mo...but the last "m" kind of ran into the "k" in her name.)

Works for Me Wednesday-He Keeps going and going and...

You've seen this beautiful thing my husband made me. I knew he was making the laundry cabinet. But this new spice rack was a surprise from Kara and Luke.
Do you think this would be something he could sell through his business? Should he engrave the center with some corny phrase like "Spice Things Up?"

A husband who makes useful things for me....works for me. Find more here.

Setting the Table

It is usually Kara's job to set the table for dinner. It's exciting for me to see her get more and more independent by getting out the silverware instead of me getting her the forks etc. Well...she set my place very well:
Here's her dad's:
Notice the fork...it's a serving fork:
We noticed it and laughed (and took pictures for the blog) and then halfway through the meal I look up and see the World's Greatest Dad actually using it:
