Mom On Middle

Nothing is scarier than a Toddler walking around with an egg in their hands.

I find forks in the strangest places too! #momlife #Dadlife #holdernessfamily #parody youtu.be/xhsK685vkk8

Too hot to play outside? Mix up a batch of Salt Dough (2c. flour, 1c. Salt, 1 c. Cold water), and make some creations. We used Cookie cutters to make shapes and free formed the frog. We baked ours at 200F for 8-10 minutes then let cool. Finally we painted them. #KidsActivities

My kids are being extremely quiet. The Mom in me knows that I should see what they are up to, but the adult in me is enjoying the few minutes of peace and quiet. Dilemmas.

This morning I set out large strips of paper with fringed edges for my little ones to paint. My 15 yr old asks, "What are you painting?" I said, Beach towels." He looked doubtful, so I told him, "Use your imagination." His response: "Oh! Yeah I don't have one." What a kid!

What do you give as a present to a 17 year old boy who doesn't want much more than to watch YouTube and read?

Anyone else looking forward to a bowl of ice cream? Just need to get the kids to bed first.

This looks so good!!

Today is Father & Daughter Take a Walk Day. So Dads hope you take the opportunity to take a walk with your girl and tell her how special she is to you. #fatherdaughtertakeawalkday

My four year old got me hooked on this song... #spookiz #cartoons #kidsmusic youtu.be/5R5FqR1mWFc

The little ones made Lazy S'mores today for a Camping inspired snack. They spread Chocolate Frosting on half of a Graham Cracker sheet and put Fluffanutter on the other half. Then sandwiched the two halves together. Almost as good as the real thing. #kidssnacks #smores #summer
