The 5 Second Rule

Do you practice this at your house? Well with 2 boys who put everything in their mouths, I had to relax my standards a little bit. I actually saw a report of an experiment done that said you actually have like 30 seconds as opposed to 5! Woohoo for me 'cause only God knows what my boys pop in their mouths when I'm not looking. Mind you one of them is 5 years old!

Well anyway, the other day I'm sitting in my craft room feeding Xander popcorn and a piece fell on the floor. Without thinking, I picked it up, kissed it, blew on it, stuck it up to God and gave it to him. Awww, come on now, you know you've done it, too! LOL! Well this smart, attentive little 13 month old immediately mocked my actions! He dropped a piece of popcorn, blew on it and then ate it! Oh.my.goodness! Now I see him all over the house picking up stuff and blowing it! Too darn funny! I can't believe he caught on that fast. I'm really going to have to watch myself around him!

I took the boys to the park yesterday, that's our favorite pastime when the weather gets warm. I took a ton of pics, but these were just a few of my faves!

Just look at that precious little face. He's watching the kids play and just taking it all in!

Note to self: find Donovan another Spiderman cap, this one is too small!

Here's my big boy dripping green popsicle juice all over his brand new white T-shirt! I guess that's why they made bleach, huh?!!

He had a ball pushing his baby brother on the baby swing...

...and Xander thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it!

I just love this photo of them!
Enjoy your Memorial Day! Thank you so much to all of the men and women who have put and continue to place their lives on the line to ensure our safety and freedom! I can't thank you enough!

Isn't is funny how we got these traditions from our moms and how fast our kids pick them up?

My photo
I live in New Jersey with my husband and our 2 sons. I work full time as a Medical Technologist and volunteer for the Community Emergency Response Team in my town. I've been scrapping for the past 8 years and I truly love it because it allows me to combine my love of photography and my love of paper into one art form. I love teaching scrapbook classes and providing freelance work. Please contact me via email if you are interested in commissioning my services: tanisharenee74@hotmail.com
