Bionicle

Indy spent most of the evening making this portrait of himself wearing a Bionicle mask (for those not in the know, a Bionicle is a robot type guy created by Legos)

The first picture is of the front of him and the second picture……. is on the back of his self portrait and shows the back of his head in the mask ofcourse!

I told him it was very detailed and that he is a very good artist.

Library Card

library card

Today my son got his first library card.  He is in kindergarten and told me his favorite thing to do at school is to go to the library.

We have been to our community library many times lately.  I have been checking him out some books on my card , but I thought since he was so very into the library I would let him get a card with his name on it.   It was a hit. He promptly checked out 5 books and a movie.

Voodoo

voodoo

This is our old mutt Voodoo, yes my husband named her. We got her in college for free from some woman in a trailer park giving away puppies She is 14 years old this month and the best dog our family could ask for.

At this point in her life’s journey she doesn’t require much. She is pretty low maintenance. She just needs her bowls to be full, a dog door and some scraps the kids cast off their plates “on accident”.

She was 7 when we brought our first baby home and we weren’t sure she was going to be able to adjust, but being the smart dog she is she realized she had better get with the program and accept them in to the pack if she was to stay herself.

Since that day I have called her Nanny Voodoo, as she watches over them. She is patient with the love tugs and hugs she gets. My little Beauty dresses her up and often sits on the floor with her and likes to act as her pillow. My son Indy can’t think of going to bed without her curled up on the floor of his room (which is getting harder and harder for her as she struggles to climb the stairs)
