It’s Friday (or Thursday night, whatever). Here’s a rundown of my week, and it’s sparkling moments.
I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m pretty darn good baker. I may even go pro one day. I mean, just look how the kiddo gulped down his banana muffin.

I’ve also realized that the kiddo has an exceptionally bright future ahead of him. Phew, that’s a weight off my shoulders.
Whether it be a quarter back for the Packers (no pressure)…

…or an starving artist.

All I can say, is if he’s an artist, he better marry rich. And if he’s a quarter back, he better send some of that dough our way.
Finally, this convo with the kido:
Kiddo: You’re not a girl momma!
Me: Yes I am, I’m a girl, or a lady.
Kiddo: NO, you’re not (can you just hear the snottiness in that answer).
Me: I’m not? What am I?
Kiddo: You’re just a momma, Momma!
No wonder I’m having an identity crisis.

The photos of him painting are adorable!
@Muthering Heights, Thank you! He just loves to paint.
Being a Momma-Momma is a compliment! Your kid is a doll! cute photos….
Those are great shots. I love how you captured his concentration in the painting shots.
@ck, He sure loves painting, or really anything messy. Thanks for stopping by!
Well, at least you get to be a momma. Dude #2 campaigned yesterday to get all of the other Dudes to call me Benji, not momma. So, yeah, I guess I’m a heroic small dog?!
@Dumb Mom, Point taken! I’d rather be a momma than a small dog. Even if he is heroic.
Better Momma-Momma than Grouchy-Momma…which is what I’ve been lately. Maybe he’ll become a professional muffin eater. Looks like he’s on his way…
kids are so funny! Scott said something very similar to his daddy about me the other day!
@Carrie Keiser, Funny yes, but I think it’s important for them to see us as something other than just a momma. I guess it’s our job to teach them that.
Visisting from SITS!
What a cutie!
@Dana @ The Coupon Challenge, Thanks for stopping by!
Hi Allison
Thanks for popping over to my blog. Sorry it has taken me a while to pop over to yours – so happy I’m here now. Wanted to give myself time to have a good look around. Your little boy is just beautiful and I love how you capture those special moments. I have a two year old daughter and everyday she inspires me – just wish I had your photography skills! Will pop over again soon to admire more of your photos and check out some recipes
@Laura, Thank you Laura! I’m so glad that you made it over. I hope you will stop by again soon, I do have some fantastic recipes. Check out the beer batter pizza dough, one of my favorites.
I think I understand your identity crisis. : )
These are awesome moments!!
That conversation was certainly one of the sparkling moments a parent would have.
I found you from SITS/31DBBB Day 7
I have had this same conversation with both of my boys. I find it so interesting that we are such a huge focus for our children, that would couldn’t possibly be anything other than MOMMY.
Your blog is lovely and the recipe page is a treat!
@Kathryn, Thanks for stopping by! I love SITS, I’ve found so many wonderful blogs. I’ll be popping over to see you soon.
Hi, I’m from the 31DBBB. I love the pictures of your son! He’s adorable. Love your blog’s design too.
@johanna, I’m so glad you stopped by! Heading over to check out your blog…
Love these photos — great moments! I think my youngest kid channels your kid at least once a day when it comes to whether I get to be an actual person or not. This morning she told me I must be a puppy because I’m hairy. Yeah, my self esteem took a small hit with that one!
@Kelly, Uh oh! Time for a shave? LOL
