Food
Indoor picnic turns into a food fight.
Since it was so hot out, we decided to have a picnic inside. I laid down a blanket and we brought out chips, drinks and sandwiches.
Within 5 minutes Lily picked up a bag of chips and dumped them all over. Then we had to pick them all up; well most of them up. And of course eat some along the way.
Then she grabbed a bag of kettle corn and turned it upside down. It didn’t all fall out, so she shook the bag and swung it around until it was empty.
It’s not a mess Dad, it’s mashed potato art.


I can’t tell if Lily is an artist or just really good at making messes. This is what she did with her mashed potatoes the other night during dinner. And it’s not like it took a few seconds, she spent quite a bit of time making it look good.
Pudding Finger Painting

Dads Pudding Finger Painting
Have you ever wanted to do finger painting with your little one but was to worried about them eating the paint? Well try pudding instead.
We use vanilla pudding and add in some food coloring. Now we can finger paint without having to worry.
Granted Lily doesn’t like getting her hands dirty so it hasn’t gone really well. Next time we’ll just put it directly on the table as she doesn’t seem to have a problem with getting the table dirty.
Doing some Christmas baking.

Lily Helping
We’re doing some Christmas baking today and Lily is helping out.
That’s actually powdered sugar in the photo, not flower. And more than a little made it into her mouth; among all the other places that it ended up!
Am I a New Food Freak?
I’ve been called a lot of things over the years but yesterday was my first time being called a new food freak.
I was discussing food with a co-worker and he said he had a friend that bought anything that said ‘new’ or ‘improved’ on the package. If it’s new or improved, it’s got to be better right? He called the guy a new food freak. I then said that my wife and I do the same thing which lead to me being called a new food freak. So I guess I am and I’ll happily take the title.
Feeding The Cows
When we were down on Grandpa and Grandma’s farm, we got to feed the cows. Lily tried, but would rather keep the grass to herself.
