Wifey decided to wash the oven mitts tonight.  She’s thinking about washing them in hot water, but then she checks the label:

“Wash in cold water.  Dry on low heat.”

So, let me get this straight…cold water…low heat.  Didn’t I just reach into a 400-degree oven with these things to take out dinner?  Weird.

For my little princess’s birthday, we gave her one of those net canopies that you hang from the ceiling over the bed.  It’s pink, it’s cute, it matches the room.

After she fell asleep, mom pulled back the netting on the side of the bed and tucked it behind the headboard…just so she wouldn’t get all tangled in it if she tried to get up in the middle of the night.

At 3:55 this morning, my little princess came in to my room to inform me that she needed me to come put the canopy back where it was supposed to go.  Someone had moved it behind the headboard.  I guess we were worried for nothing.

Offspring #3 just reached the 4-year point.  In our family, crossing the 4-year threshold is the gateway to chewing gum.  Of course, we cheated a little bit and gave her a piece a few days before her birthday.  I have to hand it to her…she’s the first of the 3 kids to chew gum for the first time without swallowing it.  Nice job sweetie!
