5yo gave me the prototype for his newest invention for Mother's Day this year. Simply blow into the receptacle at the top to activate The Boinger 🙂‍↕️🌬️🌀

came up with a pretty good snail pattern, but making mirror-image earrings means either learning to be a leftie or figuring out how to crochet backwards 😬

spent all afternoon pulling shiny, perfectly uniform wax chunk cuties out of silicone molds.

it was the most satisfying sensory experience of my life.

(had to post the final pile)

finally, a way to:

a) use up our stockpile of broken/stubby crayons,

b) make nearly-free bday party favors, and

c) stink the house up,

all in one afternoon 🥳

every time I go to search for Kodiak branded foods for the protein-starved preschooler, this big fella shows up.

I just want to tell him that everything's gonna be ok. but is that a lie? idk anymore. 😢

when I put this calendar in storage over a decade ago, I had no idea that it'd become my future 4yo's favorite thing EVER.

he's cutting them out as posters and putting them all over his room.

clear evidence that my hoarding instincts are, indeed, correct and good 😌👍

finally got Stray on sale. not only are we loving the atmosphere, concept, story, etc. but ALSO

it's the first time the 4yo has played something so beautifully intuitive that, despite his drive to mess around, he's able to progress through it (mostly) without help. an incredible work of art.

the poinsettias at my family's flower shop out of state are a thing to behold ✨

trying a cross-post over here for the first time in about a year... hey frens, hope you're well 👋

the 4yo is playing Untitled Goose Game (he's calling it "that naughty ol' goose game") and losing it. literally has been squeal-laughing for an hour. and he hasn't even left the first area 😂

3yo wanted to be a yellow Henry vacuum cleaner and... well, I did my very best 😂
