When daddy is away...

One long week without Trevor
+ one tired Mama

"Mama said I could." (It's true)


Of course the project had to be done in underwear!

And I'm pretty sure he just swallowed a piece of yarn.

P.S. About the Binky Fairy

A little substory to the post I listed below -- before this blessed event, we discussed the binky fairy and the gifts she brings (aka princess dresses) for months. This spontaneous willingness to part with the binky came after our, and I'm not kidding, 217th trip down the princess dress-up aisle. On this trip we happened to spot just the right Ariel dress, I guess, as Katelin thought it over and an hour later, the whole ordeal began. So, yes the binky fairy pays well, just enough to buy your dream princess dress.

Interestingly, after several nights without "Binks", (this thing was named), Katelin has decided she's ready to give the dress back in exchange for the binkies, and she hasn't gone to bed without a lot of screaming once! Poor thing. She just lost a member of the family.

Farewell Binks!

On Friday Katelin says, "Mom, I've got good news. I want to give my binkies to the binky fairy."

"Dear Binky Fairy, I love you. I hope you will bring me a present."


In bed without Binks!!

What we found in the morning. I guess the Binky Fairy's husband was out of town and so she couldn't slip away to the store to buy the special prize.

Katelin didn't mind.

Counting the change.
