Day 362 Daddy took the kids over to the Magic Tree again tonight so I could paint. He was a good sport and tried to take some pictures for me. (I love you Shaun!) Day 363 The weather has been absolutely beautiful this week, and we made sure to take some time to run around…
Day 355 Apparently it’s so cold the kids are confused about what season it is. Juniper shoveled out driveway and then brought out the sled! Day 356 Lately Juniper has been really into learning about outer space, especially the moon. We’ve started tracking the moon phases in a notebook, and she loves it. And it…
Day 350 I just love these little rock people Juniper and I made. I sort of wish I had brought them inside to glue together. The kids love digging through that rock garden. Which means there are rocks EVERYWHERE, but I don’t mind. I like digging through the rocks too! Day 351 It was wet…
Day 344 Today we took a million goofy pictures for animated gifs, and collected a million leaves for art projects. (Someone keeps insisting she needs a new owl since Flynn ruined her first one.) Day 345 Today was a running-jumping-crazy-giant-ball-of-dirt kind of day. Almost every picture I took was a big blur where the kids…
Day 338 Today I taught the kids a new game, acorn racing! It all seemed like a great idea, but when we pulled the stick, only ONE acorn took off rolling! The kids just pushed the rest and all was well. Juniper found a tiny friend on one of the acorns. Meet “Cutie” the Inchworm.…
Day 333 I am always super grateful when my husband takes photos during the day for me. I love seeing their daytime lives, which I miss while I’m at work. Today they played outside in the neighbor’s dirt pile (which is in our yard, haha) and checked the mail. Day 334 The days are getting…
Day 327 After dinner we sat on the deck swing for a while and enjoyed the beautiful weather. We talked a lot about how it will be autumn soon. Juniper is REALLY excited about jumping in leaf piles, she talks about it every day! Also, Halloween is an exciting topic. Day 328 I came home…
Day 320 While we were in Connecticut, we went to Silver Sands beach with my sister and a whole bunch of littles. Oh how I’ve missed the beach! Needless to say, there is no ocean here in Missouri.. The kids both LOVED the water, which was nice and warm. It was the perfect beach day.…
Day 313 Today was not exactly a pleasant day outside. There was lots of crying and complaining, just one of those days. I figured I’d post it just to show you all that this challenge is not always peaches and cream! We got a Christmas catalog in the mail, and Juniper said “I want this,…
Day 307 Juniper has been doing REALLY well with bedtimes lately. (Which is SUCH a blessing, I was starting to lose my mind.) I bought these cute little bug houses as a surprise gift for her. The only bugs we could find though were rolly pollys, and they just curled up in balls and didn’t…
