We slept in late this morning. Both of us. Which means we both really needed it. It also meant we started our day slowly and took our time. After my exercise and shower, we took family photos. I snapped a few of just the boys as I set things up.
After I sat down I realized I’d left Thomas on, on the TV. Hence the kids not looking at the camera.
Apparently even Jake found it more interesting than the camera.
the other two looked bad but I liked us here so I cropped it out.
After seeing that the kids would just not take their eyes of the TV, I should have gotten up and turned it off.
But instead we did tickle time.
Which did the trick, of course.
Then the kids played and I relaxed on the couch a bunch. Snapped a few more photos.
During Nathaniel’s nap, Jake went running, David played wii and I made more pages on my weeklong journal. Then the little boy woke up so we went for a walk and when he came back, David had prepared a gift of silly bands for him. Which thrilled him to no end.
After some food and some play time, he decided he wanted to read a bit. Took his time and slowly read the whole book.
It was a quiet, wonderful, relaxing day. Tonight I will relax more and just veg on the couch. That’s the plan.
Three Things I’m Grateful For:
1. I am grateful that I made some pages on my weeklong journal, I had been meaning to for a while now.
2. I am grateful that Jake took care of our Smog check.
3. I am grateful that I have some great TV saved up for tonight.
Three Things David’s Grateful For:
1. I am grateful that I played pirate game on the wii * {his pick for the journal}
2. I am grateful that I finished my lego sticker book.
3. I am grateful that I played wii.
Thanks so much for sharing, Karen! Your pics and story are precious!
Great pictures for the day Karen, gotta love those tickle times. I can hear them laughing just seeing those faces. Happy you had some family days this week. Thanks always for sharing with us.
