Artsy Fartsy
Which perfectly describes Marley and Brodie’s two favorite activities, art and potty talk. The potty talk is actually rather cute and doesn’t bother me in the least. We have rules for it (not at dinner or in public), but a good fart joke never loses its appeal. I hope that sense of humor follows them through life.
I also want to encourage them to find their creative outlet. They both have a creative streak. Marley’s is very analytical in his art, very linear and thought out work. Brodie is much more free flowing. He has a real eye for color and putting colors together.
While there are a thousand things I want to pass along to my boys these 2 are at the top of the list. Humor and creativity will carry them through the rough patches.







OK, now it’s official. You ARE lying about that slump you’re in!! Or you’re just WAY too hard on yourself! Love these pictures, Amy.
And your boys can come over an play with my girls any day. Arts & crafts + potty talk…. they would get along great!
The boys just got a good laugh from one of my fart jokes.
LOL, artsy fartsy, too funny! That’s great about being creative and that you nuture it, I agree, these pics are awesome!! Y ou must’ve had break-though after your slump was over!
Thanks Michaela, I am hard on myself. Also, I just wasn’t feeling as “inspired”.
Bearded ~ Your fart “jokes”, as you call them, aren’t funny like the kids…
I love these pics… all I can say….. my boys are older than yours and the potty talk still hasn’t lost appeal..so I think it’s safe to say it will continue…I think it’s a boy thing. My boys still like to be creative…it’s just that I don’t foster it as much as I did when they were little…not enough time now…
I agree…these pics are fantastic…no slump…
Great post!! I always love post like this b/c I get to see what I have to look forward to!! Love the pictures, you are doing a wonderful job! And the boys are just so handsome!!!
I just love this!! Totally OT but we were researching how the dinosaurs got extinct and found some you tube on farting monkeys. My kids think this is HILARIOUS!!!! You know, with all the bad that can happen… how bad is a fart joke or two…right???
By the way…colored duct tape is awesome!!
Great pics Amy!!
