Ka-blooey.

So.  Wow.  A whole lot of life hit us this week.  Matt got slammed at work so I got to fly solo on the parenting thing:

Pictured.  What happens when we're unsupervised for too many night in a row.  See Also:  whatever will keep them occupied holycrap.

Right at the time when I was dying like a mad woman getting ready for WWKIP day on Sunday:

LOTS OF YARN.

All while our house was going ka-blooey.  No, really.  Boom goes our HVAC system.  All of it.  Sigh.

This water table is worth it's weight in gold as a kid distraction while I deal with all of this life.

And in case I haven't mentioned like a hundred times already... the Dude is climbing EVERYTHING IN SIGHT:

Silly mommy thinks she can weed while I"m outside with her.  HAHAHAHAA.

I left him for 2 minutes to get dinner started... sigh.

At least he's cute:

So that was all very... fun.  I'm still playing catchup - haven't even blogged about Sarah's wedding 2 weeks ago! - but I''m starting to feel a bit more on track.  At least it no longer looks like an episode of hoarders around here.  And we have clean pants again.  So... progress!  I do have to wonder what the contractors I've been parading through think of all of the yarn.

It's so sparkly!  Do you like it random furnace repair man? No?  Maybe the plumber will...

One more kid pic for the road. 

Wow I love these two.
