This photo says almost everything you need to know about my life right now. It was taken outside of Chuck E Cheese last week, only twelve seconds after they learned that popcorn trees are in fact a bunch of bullshit. Luckily their young spirits are resilient enough to manage a feeble smile for the camera. And they both just noticed the giant and cheerful illuminated rodent on the building behind me.

And while I’m uploading things, here are two more from the same outing.


Which, I don’t know why but Nicolaus reminds me very much of Linda Ronstadt in that one. Hang on… I know I’ve seen…
yep. Check it:

Hah! As a mother of two boys (3 and 1) I look forward to your entries. My son used to line things up in rows when he was two, also. I have pictures of him organizing all the cans in my pantry. I loved it because, frankly, I’m a slob.
Linda Ronstadt. Hahahahahahaha That’s good. I can see why they thought it was a popcorn tree. They’re both getting cuter by the moment.
Hallmark of a fun mom: she lets her son wear an Indian poncho in public. To Chuck E. Cheese.
Can I be your son?
Hahaha. I once nannied for a little boy whose most prized possessions were Chucky Cheese tokens. He kept them in an old cigar box under his bed and would only show them to you if you were vewy vewy good.
Your boys are beautiful, btw.
I don’t know why I’m laughing – his outfit – or the fact that you actually thought he looked like Linda AND found the picture :)
I think you have a little Linda Ronstadt crush going on… Way too familiar with her pictography.
What, are you saying she’s not hot??
It’s that groovy 80s off the shoulder thing…
Here’s how to find out if she’s hot…. Post that pic here :)
