day three at home

friday:  weather didn't cooperate for the splash pad so we stayed home instead.  i'm really loving these stay at home days.  i don't know why i feel so much pressure to get out and do stuff.

check it out.  the happiest kid around.
you know you're doing something right when your three year old says "look at this mommy!"  it warmed my heart.
the only thing better was that she asked me to help her find the high chair and added brady to the senario.  she did this 100% on her own, with absolutely zero guidance from me.  as i said, it helped me feel like i'm not a disaster of a mom.  and i like that feeling.
someday i'll stop sneaking in to his room to take pictures of him while he sleeps.  not today though.
they can't make eye contact without laughing and smiling.
she took apart her bead bracelet from the golf tournament.  then she sat her pantsless self (they got dirty during lunch) on the fireplace and strung them all back on.  she makes me proud.
 
 
 
abigail asked if the dishes in the dishwasher were clean or dirty.  when i told her they were clean she asked if she could put them away.  not exactly how i would have arranged them but they're all in the correct place and it saved me some time.  she genuinely enjoys being helpful and i appreciate it so much.
this giant green bush?  we've tried to kill it multiple times but it keeps coming back.  at the beginning of july, honey cut it all the way to the ground.  literally cut it even with the dirt.  six weeks later and it's as tall as he is.  so he cut it down to the ground again.  grows like a weed.
 
it's a train!
i didn't ask for an explanation...
