Today's Lovies #10

Best Husband Ever!!!!

Today's Lovies #9

Dear Sweet Husband - tonight I came home to a vacumed house - it was blissful!!! Everyday I find new reasons to love you. (Also - don't forget Mr. Senor Art Direcor that I am calling you Senor for TWO DAYS as a trial for a new pet name!!!)

We totally rocked today - we could not have possibly added more to our day - we went to gymnastics, then met the nephews at our house, then we took my maiden voyage of three kids in a car to see the puppet show at the library, then we came home for puzzles, lunch and naps, then we went to church for VBS. I can safely say that I did not waste a moment and loved every minute of it!!!!

Today's Lovies #7

Aunt Karen gave us some caterpillars that we lovingly feed handfuls of parsley to until they made their cacoon and we waited, and waited, and waited until we had butterflies. (Daddy alerted us with a post-it that something magical might happen!) Today we let one of them go and we had to wait FOREVER until she (the butterfly) decided to fly. We were quite worried that there was something wrong with her but no, she just took her sweet time. KBug was fascinated!!!!

The butterfly even took a liking to KBug - and landed on her hip!!!

Thanks Aunt Karen!!! You are the butterfly's knees!!! 

Today's Lovies #6

Gar - thank you so much for making our house pretty - it shines like a diamond - a really old but adorable diamond. KBug - I'm so glad that you had fun playing with Nana and Papa Rob while Mommy and Daddy had date night (even though you said that Papa Rob is "quite silly"). We're still embracing summer but that means you have to embrace sunburns  and bugs and sweat. Monkey - we're so proud that you pooped and peed in the potty!!!!

Hilarious!

This is a video that my brother took of Gar. It is too funny!!!!

I'm Embracing Summer!!!

Remember when I wrote that I was going to try to enjoy summer - well I have and I am!!!! Having KBug has taught me that when you're four you don't care about how hot it is. You run and play, eat ice-cream and popsicles, and splash in the water. I have finally found a way to love summer. Now don't get me wrong - I still long for the days of hoodies, Uggs, and autumn leaves but folks this gal is learning to love summer (and has a tan to prove it!!!).

Here are some things I've found that I love about summer!!!

Farm and Art Market on Saturday mornings. (That's a real ostrich egg!)

Watching KBug and her acrobatics on the swing set!!!

Reading books outside, catching bugs and getting KBug hugs!

                          

And then when its too hot - coming inside for popsicles and puzzles!
