All on Bread, Bun, Cinnamon Day....

I have so much flour it is coming out my ears and I don't know what to do with it!!

I decided that to try and save money I am going to make Monday's "Bread Day." The day started off good. Max didn't have class till later so I got the kitchen all ready. Benson went down for an early nap, which didn't last long! That small amount of time let me get the dough started.

From start to finish of the bread making Benson wiped out flat on the kitchen floor and hit is chin, that is now bruised. Then he was playing with the cupboard door and the door won hitting him on the forehead, that is now bruised. Then he decided to try and crawl behind our white cabinet in the kitchen and got stuck, coming out with a scratch on his eye. Then he fell again on the floor this time hurting his lip, that is now fat!........And lastly, the house got really quite just as my hands were covered in oil and dough.....I went looking for the disaster and found vaseline on him and the carpet!

Once the final product was in the oven and rising I put the kidlet to bed and then cleaned up his mess of recycling on the kitchen floor, diapers all over the living room and books covering Benson's bedroom......Needless to say I enjoyed this sleeping boy so that I could clean and relax!!!

Wish me luck on the next Bread day!!!!!

???hunting, basketball or hockey???

I am for real...Benson picked his outfit out. (I just added the vest!) The only reason he picked his clothes was because all the clean one's were on his bedroom floor. He is wearing a Sponge Bob hockey shirt with camo hunting pants while playing with the basketball. Our silly little boy! Boy do we LOVE this kid:)
