Monkey madness

When Johnny turned 2, we had a monkey party. For weeks I planned and schemed and collected monkey ideas and items. How I wish I had found these great straws then.

They crack me up. My kids will drink anything that comes via a straw and these have really gone down well with them.

We've had a good day today, but I'm suffering a bit with Ikea thumb (bet that's not in Wikipedia) brought on by assembling Mark's new wardrobe/drawers/bookcase. He's really pleased with his proper furniture and it's a long overdue purchase.

We've been shoving his increasingly gigantic clothes into a cupboard too narrow for anything but infant hangers. He should be much less rumpled now.

Those are great straws!

Darwin's 2nd birthday is coming up, and I'm racking my brain trying to think of a theme for him that I can make myself and that isn't prepurchased, because it will not be long before he's demanding cartoon-themed parties.
