I'm outta here...VACATION!

This was Maddox enjoying the cabin last August. He wasn't too crazy about it. This year is different. We've already been out to the cabin a couple of times and he is LOVIN' the water! This week Grandpa Dale will have his boat out there, as well, so he'll be going tubing for the first time. So, I won't be posting for a couple of days. We'll be at the lake having a wonderful time playing in the dirt and the water. Don't be too jealous!

Mattel Recall

Thanks to It's a Schmitty Life for informing everyone about this recall on Dora, Diego, Elmo, and Big Bird toys due to excessive lead. Mrs. Schmitty said it better than I could so check out her blog for more information, and the link to the recall site.

Maddox wanted to let everyone know how delicious a Strawberries n' Cream (made with soymilk) is. Once he has one he won't let go.

I'm just so clever...

Maddox likes to "cook", so I adapted a pattern I already had to make him this apron. How clever am I?
