Shopping Solution

Maddy, much like her mother, LOVES to shop. Unfortunately (or fortunately from Ray's point of view) this passion for spending money has needed to be corrected since I decided to leave work and stay at home with the kids. So, because I do still need to run to Target or the craft store occasionally for gifts or necessities I have asked Maddy to take a picture of everything she wants. Then if she still wants them days later we may be able to go back and get them as a special prize or maybe even let the Easter Bunny know. Here is what Maddy wants.... AND this is why we should have done this a LONG time ago. Who really needs mustaches and eyeballs?!

She did also want to get this for her baby brother

 

About every 2 years...

Childrens Museum on a Wednesday

Yo Ho Ho!

Maddy and Paddy had a great time playing together on their playdate. They even found a pirate ship!

They both asked Jessie and I if we knew any pirate songs, and the only ones we could come up with involved rum. 

April Fools

Maddy is April Fools-proof. Netflix has a movie up (only today) of a chicken cooking in a rotisserie... For 1 hour and 15 minutes. Literally just a shot of a chicken turning in a rotisserie.

I put the movie on and told Maddy this was a great new show. I expected to get 30 seconds in to the movie (aka rotisserie chicken cooking episode) and have Maddy laugh and say she didn't want to watch this. BUT, in typical Maddy fashion she proved me wrong.

We got through 5 minutes, and in that time Maddy asked a million questions regarding her interest in this new show.

Is that chicken?

that looks good.

Mmmmm... Yummy.

Where's the family?

Don't they want chicken?

I like this show mom.

Is the chicken sweet?

I'm glad they are still cooking the chicken.

Then, when I went to turn it off.... She insisted we still watch the chicken show.
