3/365 today I am loving...

~ yum. this all I have to say about this:~my red Starbucks mug filled to the top with hot chocolate and bailey's (no worries, this was AFTER my afternoon babysitting duties)

~the joy of having (many) children in the home.

I miss this mess. I know I know...there are many of you with young children that pick up toys 23 1/2 hours a day that think I am certifiable but there is just something about the loudness and messiness of toddler hood that I miss.

~ the children left with us for the afternoon

Maks (20 months)

Kaeden but you can call me Mr. Rockstar

Miss McKenzie (2 years)

Aidan (5 years)

~ my mom.

~ she came over and helped out Shelby and me while all other parental units went to the movies (Avatar).

It was actually very easy as Maks and McKenzie played together all afternoon downstairs while I watched the hockey game and I taught them to cheer every time Canada got a goal ( I did warn their parents that they may hear WHEW HOO and eh oh Canada go every time hockey is on).

Kaeden/Aidan were upstairs playing and watching movies. Every once in a while I would yell up the stairs with a "give me a whew hoo if you are alive" and as long I got 2 replies all was well.
