homemade diving board...

Now come on, who hasn't ever tried to make a homemade diving board. This one is made with a container, 2 wooden card holders, 2 wooden puzzles and lots of scotch tape.

Andrew started out trying to give some advise, but apparently the engineer didn't want any so Andrew left.




lots of tape....

one of those days last week when....

....it was about a million and a 1/2 degrees out and the boys were playing inside oh so good, I decided on a whim to skip nap time. Since kdg. is slowly sneaking up on us I wanted to see if ole' Tyse could hack it without a nap. My boys are sleepers. I love that. I was getting supper ready and went to the living room to check on them and they were out like a light. Both on separate sofas snoozing away. We do get to bed late in the summer so it wasn't really a true test. I'm sure he wont fall asleep during rest time in kdg. but I remember how exhausted Andrew was those first few weeks.
