little parties
Everyone has been asking where I’ve been and what we’ve been up to and I’m here with a full report of all the exciting events in our lives.
Just kidding.
No one asked and nothing exciting has happened.
Over the weekend we went on a family trip to play mini-golf. AB’s golf stance has improved drastically since our golf game last year. Instead of looking like she’s play hockey, she looks like she’s playing croquet. It’s not a typical golf stance but at least croquet is a game with a ball so she’s getting closer.
She got multiple holes in one which I attribute to good genes. After all, I took one week of golf lessons 17 years ago and the PGA has been begging me to go on tour with them ever since.
A few years ago, Sesame was VERY into parties. We’d have multiple birthday parties for her stuffed animals and toys every week. She’s gotten back into the party scene lately and set herself up a party to attend while she ate her snack on the deck. It was close to suppertime so I said she could only have a small snack. I meant a small amount of food but she took it literally and set up a small in size party. She got out mini pretzels and we used tiny Solo cups. She set out eleven cups but there were only had 3 human guests. She still has an array of imaginary friends so I assume they were the other eight guests.
She painstakingly wrote out invitations that did not come with an English translation.
Even as someone who also struggles with spelling, it took me some work to decode the words.
Hello Daquana, (I) would like you to come here to (an) outside snack party.”
AB’s alter ego, Ella, is turning 7 on October 12th. She’s already planning how we’ll celebrate.
one and a half
My favorite offspring turned one and a half yesterday. On her way to the playground the very second she turned one and a half. She's been a busy bee in the last six months. She walks up talking and rarely stops unless she's being read to. A very...
maybe the insurance agent would like to hear an alpaca joke
The weekend started off with me breaking our bed. All I wanted to do was rest while Sesame took her nap but when I laid down, I heard a crack and the bottom half of the bed fell down. Needless to say I didn't get my nap. Saturday morning I went to the...
a trip to the falls
When Mom and Elizabeth were visiting last week we took a day trip to a small body of water commonly known as Niagara Falls. You may have heard of it. While we oohed and aahed over the beauty, Sesame sat in her stroller very unimpressed. She was more excited...
anytime the unpacking fairies want to arrive is fine with me
Welcome to my new home! Pull up a box and make yourself comfortable. It's nothing short of a peaceful oasis around here. It could even be compared to a tropical beach vacation. Last time I appeared on this corner of the webosphere I was comfortably situated...
