Ren & Sam TKBTB V2

Month two of talking with my boys for The Kids Behind The Blog Series.  I love these posts.  My boys are seriously so funny and deadpan honest about what they say.  Sam always begins every answer with UH...and Ren stops to think for a bit before he gives me an answer.  I made sure to ask them separately so they wouldn't be tempted to answer the same.  This months questions are:
  1. What is your favorite thing to do with your friends?
  2. Who is your favorite person?
  3. When playing outside, what does your ideal sunny day plans look like?
  4. What do you like to do when it's raining? (Since April showers bring May flowers)
  5. If you could plant a garden of anything, what would you plant?


Ren-newly 7 years old!
  1. What is your favorite thing to do with your friends? I do a lot with my friends, so I don't really know...play video games, go exploring, jump on the trampoline. He does do a lot with his friends...playing outside and exploring is what he usually does if the weather is nice. We don't have video games at our house but he does play with friends.
  2. Who is your favorite person? You....You're my Mama! Be still my Mama-heart!
  3. When playing outside, what does your ideal sunny day plans look like? Playing on the slip-n-slide, spraying water at my friends and grill hot dogs and roast marshmallows. Ever the jokester...Ren really will spray down his friends. We bought a slip-n-slide last summer and I know I will have to buy one when the weather warms up for sure! 
  4. What do you like to do when it's raining? (Since April showers bring May flowers) I like to go outside and play in the mud. Once I come inside and get clean I would watch movies or shows. This kids has been known to take mud baths and dirt baths...it was a Yes Day!
  5. If you could plant a garden of anything, what would you plant? Lollypops and all kinds of candy and corn.  Thank goodness Lollypops and candy does not grow in a garden...I would be in all kinds of trouble!


Sam-four months shy of three
  1. What is your favorite thing to do with your friends? UH....Build Train Tracks. The tracks this kids has going on...thank goodness we have a big basement playroom.
  2. Who is your favorite person? UH...Mema! This is my Mama and I know she is going to love reading this! Hi Mama... We Love you!
  3. When playing outside, what does your ideal sunny day plans look like? UH....I would swing, slide and have picnic pizza. Picnic Pizza at the Swing & Slide (Playdate coming soon)!
  4. What do you like to do when it's raining? (Since April showers bring May flowers) UH..... Put on my jacket and rain boots and jump in the water. Pretty much, this.every.time.
  5. If you could plant a garden of anything, what would you plant? UH.....Salad and broccoli and carrots and spicy peppers. Who is this old man? Sam's nickname is Pop...this so fits him and his love of all foods...except spicy peppers...he does not eat those.

Ten at Target--March

I have a love/hate relationship with Target. I love all.the.things and I hate that my wallet is practically empty when I leave the store.  My boys love Target Dollar Spot and they are always looking for fun activities/games/books that they can buy from the Dollar Spot.  Sam is learning all things preschool and loves Dr. Seuss. Ren loves Minions and anything dinosaur.  


Ten dollars can go a long way when everything is $1.00! Ren scored two activity books and a Minions notepad.  Sam picked four Dr. Seuss flash/matching cards and a sticker book.  All of this for $8.00 before tax.  Sticking to the $10 spending limit was easy peasy this month.


Spring is here! My boys wasted no time in picking ALL the Daffodils that bloomed this weekend.  I love the pretty yellow color and Daffodils smell amazing.  I couldn't post today with out sharing this gorgeous bouquet of hand picked love from my boys.  


Check out the fabulous finds the hosts of $10 at Target found this month.
