Green Shirt Day

Wow, good thing I just noticed a typo I made in the title there, although the typo may have been an appropriate description of today's events too .... I'll leave it at that. After I finished dressing Luke and Layne, I realized that they were both wearing bright green shirts, so today we're doing all things green. Weeding, all natural foods, recycling -- but just for today. Tomorrow we'll go back to being ourselves and piling up disposable diapers to clog landfills around the country. This morning I had the audacity to put Luke in the back room, which has a baby gate up to keep him from getting into trouble, while I left to feed and dress the other three kids. You would have thought he was in jail. Thought this shot was nice.

Layne, on the other hand, could care less about the baby gate. Probably because she can't see it well enough, but whatever. I'll take a content-to-be-left-alone-for-a-few-minutes kid. She's working on her crawling right now and enjoying the freedoms of more mobility.
Other than his time in jail, Luke's been a happy kid today. Can't complain. He doesn't care if his sandwich isn't cut in large or small triangles or squares, or any other shape for that matter. Leftover crumbs off of the floor work just fine for him. And Layne? She doesn't care if her fingernail polish doesn't match her outfit or if her waffle doesn't have butter in every single square. They don't care if there's spit-up all over the floor. Just another toy to them. Koria and Kimball on the other hand? Let me remind you of what could have been the title for today's entry. Enough said. Just pray the older two are alive by the end of Green Shirt Day.
