Okay so I don't often share the crafts and things that I do with my little two, no reason except that's not really what this blog is all about. Which really means my kids make a big, old mess and don't stay clean enough for pristine blog type pictures, you know they look like real kids. Madeleine decided she preferred to wear pj pants that day and Max wouldn't have his hair brushed and his haircut, well he likes to move when the scissors are near.
When I craft with the little ones I usually make one myself, just to sit with them, anyway the other day we made these tp monkeys, print offs found here
Jules came home and found our monkeys and was absolutely horrified, he asked me why I would do a craft like THAT with the little ones. I'm all like what are you talking about, it's a monkey, they love Curious George.
Note the tail, he thought I was making "anatomically correct, gender specific" monkeys. I tell you I nearly fell down, I was laughing so hard, I couldn't even tell him that it was the tail for about 15 minutes. Every time I went to say tail a had another fit of giggles. At that point I knew I had to share my "boy" monkey with you.
Umm yeah!
Thanks for reading,

That's adorable! I love your refreshing honesty! I've taken what I thought were perfect pictures of the grandkids working on Christmas art - and then looked closer to see that one of the boys is wearing his year-round favorite Halloween jammies! You can't win!
ReplyDeleteYour kids are darling!
:) Love your kids.
ReplyDeleteToo cute {monkey and Jules' version!}
ReplyDeleteOMGosh I was l laughing so hard at the tail also ... hehe
ReplyDeleteI just noticed I wasn't following you, now I am on GF
When I said I was interested in seeing what you were monkeying around with, I had no idea I would need a Depends undergarment to read this post. Your kids look like TV kids for a detergent ad - precious! And the monkey? Well-endowed.
ReplyDeleteToo funny! I just laughed out loud! Cute craft...I'm sure your kiddos had fun making theirs.
ReplyDeleteThe kids are too adorable... and the monkey? LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteYour kids are great! Mine wear similar attire, complete with crayon scribbles and wild hair :) Love your monkey - I didn't even notice the extra bit at first, so funny! xx
ReplyDeleteMel! That is hilarious. Poor little...er, I mean big, monkey :)
ReplyDeleteMel, your kids are adorable and I think the monkey's facial expression says it all ;)
ReplyDeleteMen always have their mind on...their family's crafts, hahahaha
ReplyDeleteWow, monkeys in Australia are very generously endowed. Is it an Australian trait? Did I actually ask that question? Don't answer it! The kids look more adorable with the marker makeup than primped and posed for the shot. Some day you can show her how she used to apply her make up. LOL
ReplyDeleteOMG the boy monkey!!!!!
