My Little Helper

The Fuzz and I had high hopes of hitting the Zoo today while Finn and Seamie were at school and the temperature reached 55. Alas, it rained...so we did what all smart girls do : made brownies that only she and I will be interested in eating.

Saoirse really enjoys baking and actually does a decent job on mixing, pouring and tasting.

Winter Blues

This is just disgusting if you ask me. But, Finn and Seamus will do anything to play outside. Despite the warm temps, it's been gray and too wet to have any real (not disgusting) fun out there. Spring - where are you!!!???

Week In Review

We've had a busy week so here it is all in one big post!

Mason and Jackson's Star Wars birthday party!
We went to a bakery to decorate individual cakes. When Aunt Jenny opens her bakery, she should have kids birthday parties. Kids decorated their own cakes and got to watch the decorators make a hot dog cake and a sandwich cake. Finn loved it!

Decorators wrote kids names on cakes.

Seamie's cake. He claims it has a rainbow on top...didn't get the Star Wars theme.
Finn's Storm Trooper cake.

Valentine's Day Treats



Last of the Snow (I Hope)
Seamus, Finn and Sean McNeela are making the most of the snow. They have been working hard on this tunnel all week.
High temps are melting it this week. Yay!

Bathing with my Cousin

We spent a lot of time watching the Giles kids while Aunt Cate tended to Nana.
Colin had a bit of an accident in his underoo's that involved a bath.
Saoirse, never one to resist a bath, joined in.

Chicago Wolves

Seamus greets "Skates" the Chicago Wolves mascot.
T tries cotton candy at the game. Didn't like it.
And of course, hot dogs.
