Pink Monsters and Mascara'd Boys

Long story short ..... Jason LOVES Franken Berry the cereal. Looks for it every year around Halloween - that's the only time they put it out. He was so proud to find two boxes on clearance at Target. Well, me and my developing fetus had a major sugar craving last week and had some of his treasured Franken Berry. And perhaps me and the developing fetus had more the next day also - and the next. I tried to tell the fetus "No, that's daddy's!" -- but alas, the fetus' power over me was too strong!
Anyways, the Franken Berry was gone and me and the developing fetus were quite pleased with our Franken Berry consumption. However, Jason was not. He was convinced his seasonal, treasured Franken Berry was gone for a whole year. He apparently expressed (complained) to his brother the sadness of missing out on the Franken Berry. Then, yesterday a dozen boxes arrived at our house. I might be giving birth to a baby pink Frankenstein!

Also yesterday ...... Jacob was in our bathroom and while I ran to the kitchen for a minute to get ready for an awesome playgroup .... he squished his tiny hands into the inch opening of my baby-proofed make-up drawer and managed to get mascara. The picture explains the rest.



Grandma and Grandpa E got him a red wagon for his birthday .... he LOVES it!!!!
