Swear Jar

A few months ago we started a "swear jar" to try and teach Peri not to say the word "hate". We came up with a few words that we weren't allowed to say (hate, stupid, dumb, any cuss words). If someone caught you saying that word, they pointed it out and you had to pay them $1. Within the first day, I owed Nick $5. We decided to remove "crap" from the list because apparently I say it every other sentence. Also turns out I say "hate" a lot too. I've since learned to say "strongly dislike". Sigh. This didn't work out at all like I expected.

Left over photos from spring break. Chris and I were to tired to get in the photo. Now I wish we had. 

Birthday!

Peri has taken to wearing her Dora birthday hats around the house and out of the house. At breakfast a few weeks ago, she put the hat on my and loudly announced "It's my mom's birthday everyone!" Lots of looks and smiles from the other tables. Which would be nice, but it wasn't my birthday. Chris and Nick enjoyed my embarrassment. And I don't embarrass easily. Thanks Peri!

Lazy Sunday

Think her outfit and hair say it all
