I love these two pictures because they tell a little story. In the first, the boys are having a great time.
In the second, there's the realization that they should have thought this through. (I love McKay's face.)

Carter is on a baseball team for the first time this year, but there's not that much baseball. Mostly the games get rained out, as they did on this fateful day.
We have been getting the boys more involved in household chores. McKay has this strange desire to watch the Food Network at all hours, so we have an inexplicable urge to cook elaborate dishes for dinner each night. A few nights ago I asked Carter if he wanted to dredge the chicken, fully expecting him to say no. I was surprised to hear him say he wanted to help, but really more surprised by what a good job he did. (And when it was done he ATE it - Mr. Picky Eater himself...)
You know how when Mothers' Day rolls around and kids ask "Why isn't there a Kids' Day?" and the standard answer is "Everyday is Kids' Day." Kind of true. Today is Mothers' Day and we spent the afternoon taking the kids to the park and working on a recipe that Carter found in April's issue of "The Friend": Bunny Buns. I let the boys do as much as was safe and they were really excited to decorate their bunny buns, even though all we had were Valentine's Day sprinkles.
The globs at the bottom are tails, I think. I like McKay's best because it has red eyes and fangs. I wonder if that was on purpose. Anyway, as Carter said, "They are delicious!" Light and sweet with a hint of orange and a sugar glaze. The ears could have been longer.
Hope you all enjoy the pictures!
