Prince's Special Day

DadOf4 has been doing special days for the last several year.  During each child's special day, s/he gets to plan out an entire afternoon one on one with Daddy.  The kids have evolved from McDonald's and a movie to Cici's Pizza and Main Event.  Whatever they choose, the kids (and Daddy) have a great time.

Photo Story Friday - Princess's Big Leprechaun Project!

Hosted by Cecily and MamaGeek

A little while ago, I told about Princess's next big project at school.  Read about it here if you'd like.  Go ahead and do it - it is actually kind of a funny story!

So, Princess's job in the next week or so is to create a Leprechaun Trap and write a Leprechaun story.  She has been warned that building an effective Leparechaun Trap is not going to be easy. Leprechauns are super wiley little creatures and kind of surly too if I am not mistaken. 

But the key word here is little!  DadOf 4 and Princess have been hard at work this week creating an inviting little house for the expected Leprechauns - which, when entered through the front door, will snaps shut and hold those little buggers securely until Princess can retrieve them!

Here are some photos:

A Rude Awakening!

Flu Bug - 2        Knight - 0

My Poor little Knight got sick again last night. 

He came downstairs around 2:00 in the morning.  This in and of itself is not all that unusual. 

However, when DadOf4 reached down to pull our little Knight into bed with us, the Knight promptly threw up all over DadOf4's pillow. 

Ick! 

DadOf4 is quite quick witted even at 2:00 in the morning. He looked up at me and said without missing a beat, "Well that was a rude awakening!"

Too true!

It is good to be able to laugh when life barfs on your pillow!
