We've been enjoying lots of down time, snuggles and low-key play dates. This post will be "photo-heavy," but will give you a good idea of how we've been spending our time lately.
We've been...
playing outside a lot.
The weather has been amazing and this little guy LOVES to be outside.
...enjoying watching the birds on the bird feeders.
Parker found a great spot to set up his stool and watch them eat and sing to each other.
I love hearing their beautiful noises. It's very soothing to me.
...eating lots of peanut butter and clementines; two of Parker's favs.
...enjoying our friends.
We hosted a Minecraft play date with 4, count em, 4 computers!
This little Cub Scout lunch date was after the Pinewood Derby (more on that in another post):
McDonald's with a friend.
(why do 7-year old boys think it's so funny to be gross or make faces in pictures???)
(Parker was in ice cream heaven)
...doing some crafting.
I think there are going to be some very happy Grandparents when they receive these beauties in the mail.
...snuggling in Mom & Dad's bed.
(while talking to Grandparents on the phone)
(and while watching the premiere of Chima).
...and sharing some laughs.
(Payton said to Parker, "Here, put on this hat!")
We had a friend's son babysit for us the other night. He drives a Jeep. Brian asked him to drive the boys around the block. They were all in heaven. Brian cannot WAIT to get his Jeep some day. :)
So that's what we've been up to lately.
Enjoying the slower pace.
Enjoying the blessing of family.
Enjoying life's simple pleasures.
(like a great cup of coffee at Cracker Barrel in the middle of the afternoon...just because)
What about you?
What are you enjoying these days?
My friend Jeff's brother does the voice of Worritz in the Chima series. It's Legos, P loves Legos . . . I thought it was a cool fact :) The guys, Scott Shantz, is from Vancouver.
