Let's Play

Saturday was such a beautiful day. We had so many things that needed to be done around the house, but they will still be here next weekend. Next weekend my children will be a week older, a week gone. So, I said forget all the work to be done and let's play today.
We all slept in, Daddy cooked us breakfast. Simple...Mr Pillsbury dough boy is my husband's friends when it comes to cooking. But it was all the more yummy because I did not have to prepare it. Then we all got ready and headed to the park. I think everyone else must have had the same idea; it was packed. The kids had a blast...I think the pictures can describe their intense fun without my wordiness. Once we were finally able to convince them that we needed to leave and go eat lunch we headed to chick-fil-a, like the rest of the town : ) We were there forever, because it can take a 5 year old and a 3 year old almost an hour to eat an ice cream cone. I thought David was going to get an ulcer from having to sit still and wait until they were finished. Logan thought he was so big going up the the counter trading in his book for an ice cream cone, while Daddy thought he needed the bowl of ice cream instead of the cone. But, hey they are only a child once, and it was Saturday with no pressing appointments or naps at 1:00 on the schedule for this Saturday. Afterwards we headed home, kids down for a nap. When they got up from their nap at almost 5:00 there was still daylight so they went out and rode their bikes. Logan had a crash and required a Spiderman band-aid to make it all better. And this morning before he could leave for church we had to replace the Spiderman band-aid with a new one.
Olivia has been telling me she can whistle for a couple of weeks now. But every time she would try and whistle it was just soft air that came out. Well, yesterday she was successful and has been whistling like a bird ever since. She is so proud of herself.
Carson will be 2 this week.....We will be celebrating his birthday next weekend since my mom and dad are in Hawaii right now. I'm thinking we will be doing something outside. Boys...simple...dirt...slides...rocks...swings...what more could a toddler want?
