Two of my son’s best buddies are a pair of identical twins named Ned and Evan. For a good six months after meeting them, he (and I) were unable to tell them apart. (I’m a twin myself, but look nothing like my sister). So Parker was always telling me stories about his adventures with his pals […]

handmade birthday party stuffed cat […] paper cutout shadowbox frame […] My adorable niece and nephew celebrated their 5th and 6th birthdays last weekend with an outdoor party, water balloons and two cakes: chocolate with Sleeping Beauty on top for the birthday girl and vanilla with Buzz Light Year on top for the birthday boy.

But I did make him this little memory game featuring his current obsession: robots. My first thought […] I made this plush robot for my 5-year-old son, who is getting his tonsils and adenoids out tomorrow in hopes of solving sleep apnea and other related problems. He has been crazy about robots lately, and loves to make his own with cardboard boxes and various craft supplies. My father-in-law, an electrical engineer, has promised to […]
I have no idea what we’ll do this year yet, but last year I made 20 tissue cozies for my son’s preschool classmates.
