A "Happy Meal"...Yunger style!

(Great way to get the kids to eat their veggies, no?!)


Never a dull moment!

Thanks to "Anonymousquito" for her excuse, which was right on the mark!  But I figured I'd just check in and let you know a bit about some of the adventures which have been keeping me away from the computer....
  • Trying to explain to the kids that you can't just take eggs straight out of the fridge and eat them (and cleaning up after the subsequent mess!)

(Thankfully they "ate" their eggs outside!)
  • Cleaning up after a silly sibling decided to dress Naftali in their underwear, which he promptly soiled in a matter of minutes!
    (No picture of that one!)
  • The kids had lots of fun one afternoon with the "sidewalk chalk" they found- coals leftover from the neighbor's BBQ!

  • Playing with a ladybug- and making sure that everyone has a chance to hold it! (ever wonder why in general, kids are scared of bugs, but a ladybug is so thrilling?)


I've got tons more to blog about, but the house is too quiet...so I'd better go run and see what my crew is up to!

The Blogger's Excuse

I've been meaning to blog lately, but just haven't been able to carve out the time from my overloaded schedule.  Luckily for me, a certain zany relative of mine decided to submit the following guest post, which was right on target!

The Blogger's Excuse

by Anonymosquito

A pioneer in so many ways
Just doesn't have so much time in her days.
She can't sit around like a lump on a log...
and lately, she doesn't have time even to blog!

A mother, a wife, and a programmer too
She simply has so much to do.
Of course it would be nice to go walk a dog --
But she doesn't even have time to blog!

Between work, and kids, and jumping jacks,
She takes care of stacks and stacks!
She can't sit around like a lazy [insert word for chazzer]...
She doesn't even have enough time to blog!

Her site sits here dusty for more than four weeks,
But never a word of complaint should we speak --
Her life keeps her hopping like a sugar-high frog...
We love her even if she doesn't have time to blog!
