I'm enjoying my time off and soaking up as much of these babies as I can.We try to go outside everyday and the weather is finally nice enough that we can do it without risking heat stroke. We usually just go down the street to check the mail or see the "momo" (windmill) or to the park. Even for short walks, I get nervous if I don't at least have a small diaper bag packed for emergency situations so though I'm getting better at it, getting out the door can be quite the event. Here we are after I've finally got everything and everyone loaded in the stroller.
Easton is becoming more independent at the park making it easier for the three of us to go. Before, he would only slide if we went together but now he'll go alone and I can just hang at the bottom with Sweet P and catch him.
Speaking of, here's our sweet P. Isn't she yummy?
I usually feel brave enough to go out solo with the munchkins once or twice a week to run a quick errand. Most of the time it's a positive experience but sometimes I find myself having to apologize to fellow patrons and racing to the checkout. I think whoever invented the ipad must have had kids.
Today we went to Target and E was so over being in the cart. He insisted he walk behind me. Very slowly. At one point there was enough distance between us that a staffer approached to ask him who he belonged to. I snapped this photo.
He's my helper around the house and likes to help with laundry, unloading dishes and tending to his sister. I do sometimes have to remind him to please not push the swing at full speed but most of the time, he's very gentle with her.
Here, these two are glued to an episode of Bubble Guppies. Yes, we watch TV at our house. Easton is obsessed with Bubble Guppies. Obsessed.
Being silly....
We're keeping it pretty simple these days but life with these two is sweeter than ever.
