Snaps of Joy : The mom files - 10/26 - 10/27

~~Monday~~

Mondays are made for getting out of the house. It's not always what we do but it was what we did this week. My mood required a lunch out and a trip to the park. I knew the weather was going to turn rainy and cooler this week and so, we make hay while the sun shines!

I snuck this little nugget some bites of spud.

A Mario goes where he goes.

Sibling love.... sort of.

He wanted a picture with big bubby too!

Then off to the park we went! It was overcast and a little gloomy, but the kids had a blast! I had to change the 2 year olds diaper twice, not once, but twice. We changed it park style. There wasn't anyone around and he didn't care. I have the most pictures of him too because well, I have to keep both eyes on that one.

and again... this time I had baby girl out of the truck.

Gotta do, what ya gotta do!

I couldn't see him on any of the equipment and my heart stopped.
I started to panic and then yell but when I rounded the corner, I saw him.
Just sitting on this bench, not a care in the world.

So, my big boy has always been cautious. I like that actually, but I am pushing him to spread his wings a bit. At first he was scared to jump up on this "zip line." After he did it though he said "mom, I don't even know why I was scared. This is epic." Baby steps.... we're taking baby steps.

Of course he fell asleep on the ride home... with just a bit

of chocolate smudge on his face.

~~Tuesday~~

This morning the kids decided to get out all their blankets and pillows to create some sort of "cave world." Then I snatched some bits of our homeschool day. Mostly our painting. I use my grandma's old rooster table cloth for painting projects. Always makes me think of her and miss her.
