Engaging in Kitchen Utensils

Kellen's favorite toys are kitchen utensils.
Wooden spoons and potato mashers, the extensions to electric mixers: These hold hours of fascination for the little guy.
Lately he doesn't want to be put down, but when he does, he wants to play with kitchen Stuff.
Maybe he will be a chef?

I'm madly cleaning the house to get ready for the house-cleaner; funny how that works!

I talked to my dear friend Kristen, who is still making me smile...I love talking with her. The world is just sunnier afterward.

Oh! And on the skateboarding front: I really am turning well now and stopping and ... pretty much surfing sidewalks.
It is SO FUN.
