Little Helpers

If I could set New Year's Resolutions for this family journal, I think I'd post more pictures of the everyday things. Living in China, I think I get caught up in taking pictures of crazy cultural things or events. While, in all honesty, my favorites take place right in the home.

Like how the boys like to delicately put spaghetti in the pot as if it were a floral arrangement.

And eating some along the way.

Putting back the ones that don't seem to go.

Then Hunter got time out for spitting in the pot. Really?! Sick. Just think, if I'd never typed that, you'd think we lived a charmed perfect life making sweet spaghetti. You've heard of "blagging" (blog-bragging) but what do you call it when a mom posts pictures of her kid in time out?!

Call it darn cute- Hunter's bro joined him in time out.
Just to be next to him.

Yah, once again, there goes my ideal parenting. Disciplining your kids while telling them to smile for the camera at the same time. Don't tell me you've never had them say cheese with marker covering them from head to toe...

What. Spit boils out. Kids smiles need to be captured.
