How to: Get Stuff Done

One lovely winter evening, we invited some friends over for dessert. Nothing too fancy. *snort*

Alright - Lo Gung requested, and received cream puffs. (By the way, I think I still owe some of you the recipe. Working on it!)

After we'd had our fill, Heidi pulled out a bag full of a QIP (Quilt in Progress) and asked for my help in pinning it to its batting and backing.

No problem! But first...what to do with all the chil'ens? I mean, it's kind of difficult to pin together an enormous quilt...if kidlets are constantly running over it with tricycles, right?

First, the big kids:

Rock Band took care of them! (Yes, Lo Gung, daddies are included in the Big Kid crowd.) Oh, and check out this kid's chops! B Boy was GROOVING.

BBJ wasn't doing too badly, either! (I think...yes, I'm nearly positive - she's playing the drums with an enormous bubble wand. Hrm...a lot safer than handing her drumsticks!)

Now, for the littlest one...turning him loose in the same room as that many buttons is probably hazardous for everyone's health. What to do....I know! How about turning him loose with some chocolate pudding while firmly locked into a high chair?

Why do genius solutions....always seem to create more problems! At least we got the quilt pinned together. Oh, and he got to practice his Spoon Skills. He's getting pretty good...I think half of that pudding actually made it into his mouth!
