the goings-on…

IMG_1893 So this fella turned 17…

IMG_2174and requested homemade eggrolls (that actually turned out-hooray)

 IMG_2168this green kitchen got a coat of bleached wheat paint with a raw umber glaze…

IMG_2210 this fella used his superstar handyman skills to add a new backsplash to go with the new paint…

IMG_2199this little lady used her taping (and helpfulness) skills to help with the painting extravaganza…

IMG_2227 this wall got 2 coats of golden sunshine paint with a Moroccan stencil of golden apricot on top (and just a little  fyi, wallpaper stenciling is most certainly not a quicky quick little endeavor)…

  IMG_1955this fella continued to provide me with keen insight to life.  After we woke up to a couple of inches of snow the other morning, Cael brought out a pair of winter boots and his sneakers.

Cael: “Mom!  Which ones should I wear? Is it going to be an inside day or an outside day?”

Mom:“Hmm, I’m not sure, Cael…”

Cael: “But Mom!  You are smart!  You know everything!  Which ones should I wear?!”

IMG_2224 Amazing that he has the whole mom-is –so –smart thing figured out and he’s only been in 1st grade for 100 days …
