The Coolest Order and a Silver and Gold 5k

I’ve been taking the kids to Jimmy’s work a few days each week to do school there. One day, we brought in stickers and paint so Sadie could decorate some work gloves for a few employees and she also put stickers on a welding helmet for one of the workers.

I wonder if she will do any welding when she grows up! This week she told me she wants to be a gymnast.

Mordecai… I think he just wants to be healthy?! We were back at urgent care for the second time in two weeks. This time, he had another ear infection and hand, foot, and mouth disease. Poor guy is all blistered up. (more…)

Six Things

Okay, I have a few random things to share. From what Mordecai calls me (spoiler alert, it’s not mom 🥴), to the last art project Sadie and I worked on, and more.

1. An art project with Sadie. Sadie picked out a paint by number kit to do for my mom’s birthday gift and we spent a few months painting it together. We would get out the supplies during Mordecai’s naps and paint away! The picture below is how it turned out.

Palm tree paint by number

I’m usually more of a watercolor gal, but this painting was a lot of fun. I would definitely do something like it again! (more…)
