Band on the Diaper Run

Monster Trucks

Forget about education.  Monster trucks, ice cream and more ice cream...that's what what Mags and Jason did this weekend. 

 

 

Also we found this from their Dad/daughter outing last weekend. I'm starting to get jealous.

 

 

 

 In other at-home news, June threw her first tantrum.  We kind of thought it was funny (after the fact).

I hope she doesn't get frustrated with bunk beds and small living spaces because pretty soon, it'll be bus living for a month.

 

Check out Jason's DJ sets at SXSW.  I'm not going to DJ (but I'm sure he'll play the same jams I would-maybe even a little Yellow Submarine.  It's all in time with our upcomming re-mix records.  Re-mixes are sometimes better than the original.  

 

School news-Mags has an "interview" at the Montessori school.  I hope I get to listen in.  I'm imagining a job-type interview for some reason. I can hear the teacher  saying "So, what are your best traits, Magnolia?"  And Mags answering,   "I loove eating sugary things, pretending I'm a fairy and Yo Gabba Gabba"

Coming soon, a decision on school.

I just love reading your Blog.  I am totally bummed that you will not be going with Jason to SXSW,  i will be there doing a few interviews. I am hoping he will let me steal a few minutes of his time.  It won't be the same without you though.

Make sure to teach her the answer to "What is your greatest weakness?"  My suggestions:

I'm a perfectionist

I'm a workaholic

I care too much

I'm obsessed with learning

Hi! Just wanted to send a note and tell you how much my husband and I enjoy your blog! We stumbled across it when we became pregnant and it's become a regular read for us.

We finally gave birth 9 days ago, and Re-Arrange Us was the only pain relief I had during 263 minutes of pushing. We're ex-pats, and the pain relief options in the Netherlands aren't so vast. And, the two they had were not working for me. So, we just left Re-Arrange Us on repeat and it kept me motivated and relaxed!

The next day the midwife came and asked what album it was because she wanted to buy it for herself.  :)
