Robot Parade


Wuggie is great with little kids when they come to visit, but the hard part is picking up all your little leggo guys so your young friends don't dismantle or eat them. The upside? Lots of space to cover with Lego once they are gone!

Here, friends, is Wuggie's Robot Parade.

Easy Monkey Bread


Wuggie Norple made this today almost totally on his own (obviously mom still does all things oven-related, but he is now authorized to use a butter knife.) This is from our new favorite cookbook that really seems to have a good idea what kids can do. It is super yummy, and Mom and Dad ate even more than Wuggie, who would still rather have spaghetti than anything.

Lasagna


Tonight Wuggie Norple made his first ever lasagna. He did every bit that didn't involve a hot oven or boiling water. Doesn't it look great? I made one with more vegtables and less cheese. I think his looks better...

Curriculum Night



Wuggie Norple's class made these self portraits which were hung outside the classroom when parents arrived for Curriculum Night. I guessed which was his pretty quickly. The Spaghetti gave it away.











Here is what Wuggie Norple's day is like.
Looks pretty rigorous. An hour of math? Phew!

"I can't believe anything..."

Says Wuggie Norple this morning.

"Say more about that" I reply

"I can't believe the Play Structure is finished
I can't believe I have to go back to school.
I can't believe church is starting again.
I can't believe we have pizza Goldfish."

I sang him David Byrne's Once in a Lifetime.
He didn't seem to understand my reference.

Monster Mouth


Wuggie Norple and I have been doing some cooking. Last week we made spiders with our Baltimore cousins. Yesterday- Monster Mouths.
