This one's my all time favorite...it's from when we had our garage sale this summer!

The Cutest Way to Use Post-It Flags

One evening I was working on my scrapbook with my friend Christine. We were crankin' out the pages like crazy! The next thing I knew, Aidan came into the dining room with post-it flags ALL OVER himself! For some reason he just loves them and won't leave them alone and since they're easily accessible, he just helps himself! The worst part is that the parental supervision, provided (somewhat) by Dustin was NON-EXISTENT!!! He was sitting at my desk using my computer and didn't notice the P-I Flag Thief! Aidan used the entire BRAND-NEW package of flags (30 of them!) and Dustin was completely unaware of what was going on!!! That means 30 little "schlip" noises came from less than 2 feet away from adult ears! There were post-it's on the monitor and best of all? On Dustin's head!!!

You see what's on the monitor? The very reason we have these photos at all! The game of Chainz...one doesn't have to be a special agent to know why it's only installed on a multi-tasker's computer!

Only 27 flags left to be accounted for...

I'll tell you this...if it weren't so darn cute, one could have been a little bit angry!

Game Time!

So, since this is something we do every single day (seriously I don't think we've missed a day since like last November), I thought I would share. We bypassed the favorite game but I'm sure you'll hear all about it very soon. Like I said, we play games every day because they're just so much fun! We acquired most of them from our friends at ebay but some were old favorites of K & M.

We started off with a little game of

In this game you use your memory skills! You try to match the snack color with the turtle color.

Then we moved on to

In this game you try to match the halves with their filling shapes!

It's fun to stack them up!

We're obviously making our own rules at this point!

And last but not least: our favorite, play-it-every-day game

This one's your race to the finish line game, but the "dice" are bears with colored tummies!

Aidan's bear of choice for the day

Oh, and guess who won every game....

Saturday...

To celebrate the September birthdays in our house we went to Columbia for the day of "L's".

First Stop: Lowes...to build a firetruck at the FREE bi-weekly Build & Grow kid's clinic

(October 11th: the cutest little glow-in-the-dark skeleton...we are there!)

Next Stop: The Fabulous Columbia Public Library to return our finished reads. (Please excuse the lack of photos.)

Then on to Lunch at Bennigan's

Finally, we ended up Laughing at Going Bonkers and Loving Bargains at Goodwill. All photos from GB look the same so I opted out on photography while there. I wasn't thinking like a true blogger yet! I do, however have photos from the adorable wool sweater that I picked up for $2 from Goodwill. I just couldn't leave it behind because a) it's the cutest little thing, b) it was $2 and c) because of the sweet little label inside that states: Made with love by Grandma. (I have a photo that I was going to put here, but my photo button is gone. ???)
