Just another night at our house

Come on now, don't your kids think that measuring cups and mixing bowls are better than toys too?

The kids say, "Pay no attention to the man washing dishes in the sink behind us. Mommy says she's the luckiest woman alive, but Daddy doesn't want his secret to get out ~ it gets him in trouble with his friends..."

And there you have it, a typical post-dinner weeknight at our house!

That is hilarious! The cabinet Noah gravitates to most is the one with the Oxo bowls in it too! He hasn't learned to put it on his head yet though! :)

Yah! you are a winner of some Ally Bowtique Hair Bows! Come to my blog and check out the details!

And yes! They all love the kitchen gear to play with even the big boys!

Of course mixing bowls and measuring cups are more fun than toys. They even give that special man at the sink some more dishes to wash! haha Looks like a nice evening with your family.
Love, LaoLao Shultz

I love seeing pictures of the goofy things the kids do! Mine are too old to silly, or so they say! :D

Oh hey! We're going to be your neck of the woods next week. Our drive home from Florida is coming through Raleigh/Chapel Hill area as Cam wants to visit UNC. (He's got a thing for being a Tarheel when he goes to college...maybe you could convert him to wanting to being a Hokie!) Maybe if you guys aren't too busy that afternoon, we'd love to pop by to quick meet Caleb. :-)
I will email you later!!

Seriously funny as usual!!!

I keep telling my husband how sexy dishpan hands are but he doesn't seem to believe me!

You need to give them some wooden spoons or spatulas and turn those hats into some noisy drums! :)

You can most always find a man @ the sink like that @ my house after dinner too. Don't tell mine it isn't normal.

Glad your kitchen gear is getting double its value!!

LOVE it! (and in my opinion Ian rocks!) I often wonder why I buy toys? We are in for some snow in the next couple of days .. yes snow!!! Hope you guys are still enjoying the sunshine. Can you send some my way? :0

So funny.. your hubby doing the dishes was one of the first things I noticed about the picture. Then I noticed that your children, like mine, like to wear bowls as hats etc. LOL

What a lucky girl you are to have a hubby to do the dishes!

Hey, there is nothing more fun than kitchen "stuff" -- I think that's why Anne Marie loves the miniture "real" stuff in her play kitchen so much. And good for Ian helping you -- Mike is such a blessing to me - he's always helping around here!!
