Refrigerator calendar cut-ups
You may remember that I save up cute kid things I want to remember by jotting them on the fridge calendar we have. I practically filled up the calendar in one day, this Wednesday, with the gems Max and Ryann were providing me.
First of all, at about 6:15 in the morning, the three kids and I were assembled around the table enjoying breakfast together. The house was silent as far as I could tell, apart from the quiet humming/buzzing of the refrigerator. Suddenly, Ryann says, "I hear Max and Ruby!" Max responded soothingly, "Oh, that's just your brain."
A short while later, Ryann announced that when she grew up, she planned to be a princess and a doctor. I said that was wonderful and asked Max what he was going to be when he grew up. He quickly responded, "A garbage picker-upper and a baseball player." Well, at least my kids both have dreams and back up plans??
Next, Max was whining to me about how Ryann loves his Star Wars action figures. I asked why it was such a big problem and he informed me that Star Wars action figures are not for loving, they are for fighting!

Later that day, we made a fort. Ah, fort fun. This was good entertainment for probably half of a whole hour! Then, the boys pulled the fort down and destroyed it - which was good fun for 5 whole seconds. That was followed by tickle fighting in the blankets which was another 4 minutes of fabulousness. Then, later that afternoon Mom cleaned it all up. Which equated to nearly 10 minutes of frivolity.

I LOVE fort fun. I have fond memories of spending hours playing in forts with my brother and/or friends.
They are such funny kids. :)
