The apolaustic archipelago chided the understanding quidnunc, or Picnic intro.

Today we're participating in ABC and 123's Picnic Table Talk introduction. I'm a former copy editor and now a SAHM to Zachary, 6, and Corey, 3, and have been married to Alex, my bacon-loving husband, for almost 11 years. I started Mother Is Not Concerned a few months ago, about the same time I found ABC and 123 . The title of my blog is in reference to something my pediatrician wrote down in my medical records when I was about 2 (thanks, Mom) and my titles are exquisite corpses.

Here are my boys playing after a recent picnic:



To which we brought my favorite potluck food, cake balls (although I prefer dark chocolate):



And here is why I'm glad it's picnic season:



And it wouldn't be a picnic without bugs, so here's a bug activity Zachary thought up all by himself:



Corey had fun with it, too, although he got a little frustrated with the clothespins and preferred taking them off to putting them on.

Nice to meet you. That's a neat bug craft.

Holly,
I enjoyed your creative intro. The bugs are fun, although I HATE bugs at a picnic:)
I think we should "hire" you to do a post on ABC about vocabulary development. Each of your titles is a vocab lesson in itself!
Did you recently get a new look on your blog? I love the pink floral!

I just love when my kids come up with projects on their own. I love the bug.

I always love seeing your titles, they are too much fun! I think that my doctor probably noted the same thing as yours did about my mother more than once. Hm...copy editor...let me just apologize for all the typos now. I am bad about leaving way too many of those in! Thanks for linking up to our table talk!

Stopping by from ABC's. I love cake balls, too. I usually have to give lots away so I don't end up eating too many. Nice to meet you!

Jenny said...

Cake balls?! Why haven't I ever heard of such a thing? We're making these ASAP. I like your blog! :)

Hey, stopping by from SITS. Cute blog. I love summer time too. All the running round and playing wears out my little angels in a hurry.

Happy Friday.

Cake balls sound good, I never heard of them before! I love dark chocolate, too...

Your son's bug activity looks great!

I'm pregnant and you just made me crave cake balls. Gotta take a trip to the store now!
