Some More Janu-adventures

Mothers all over the world love the few minutes of peace that some dough and some toys can create for them. Here's Ezra's funny play dough pal.
Aurelia lovingly constructed a friend out of the temporary stuff.
On another day Aurelia helped the boys dress up like sisters. Wasn't she thrilled?! I had a lovely bunch of girls for a few hours, tatoos and all.
Daddy helped Ezra construct his name in blocks - wasn't I impressed?
Ezra has his own block-building skills of course.
In an attempt to make hotdogs and noodles more "FUN" we followed a recipe from a FAMILY FUN magazine to make these Octo-Dogs. They WERE fun to make, but lacked a little something when it came time to eat them (note Aurelia's face in the photo. . . .) Needless to say, the recipe has not been repeated.
Oli ate the noodles, sort of.
Ezra, my passionate boy, was by far the most impressed and excited about the Octo-dogs, but even he didn't finish eating them . . . I think we ended up having PB and J for a snack later because we were all still hungry.
Last - I thought it would be fun to include a picture of yours truly and her BIG son, Chris (from college group.)
