For Oliver, this has meant increased craftiness. Here is a chronicle of his crafts for this week:
Monday: wooden airplane model which he earned the money for and bought himself
Tuesday: 2-year-old Gingerbread house kit which he found in the pantry
Wednesday: a break in the weather provided the perfect opportunity to do some major destruction to the aforementioned gingerbread house (note the onlooking friends munching on the remains)
Thursday: a monster truck built out of blocks - advanced building skills at work
Friday: spray painting using a home-made DC logo stencil (Brenden helped with this project)
Saturday: some serious fort-building
Brenden has made 2 additional batches of cookies and built this roller-coaster
June has experimented with wardrobe ensembles and I've given up trying to teach her what matches and what doesn't. (These changes pictured were actually over the course of one day.)

Needless to say, I am feeling quite stir crazy.

Is it spring break at your house? That is lots of building time. (Imagine the wardrobe changing took very little time at all.) You have terrific outlets for housebound kids...how about for the housebound mom?
me too! (it doesn't help that your babysister pulls a no show on you!!) I love Junes outfits!!
Ah, the red boots. They are like the gift that just keep on giving!
