Nathaniel has been sleeping slightly later. Not that I want to jinx it by saying it out loud but here we are. Not much but closer to 6 than 5 and it makes a noticeable difference in my mornings. This morning the kids decided to wrestle. With two boys I don’t expect less of course.
And then they were both wiped out.
After Nathaniel’s nap, we went to the art store cause I was supposed to work on my Pam Carriker classes today but I realized I didn’t have any angular brushes. When we came back, David and I worked on his workbook a bit while Nathaniel looked at us longingly.
Then the kids played. I love this cause biting that bottle is something Nathaniel does often and I am glad I captured it.
And he goes through my scrappy drawers too often, too. Taking stuff out, destroying stuff, etc..
And he’s been playing with the doorstops lately again too. Partly cause I have been using the gate so he can’t venture too far.
After they ate and we played, I started working on a piece of art for my brother in law and his wife and the kids played together.
Jake came home early thankfully and fed the kids and did everything while I did my art. I love that. I love him. The kids are tucked safely in bed now and I am going to do a bit more art before I start getting ready for date night. Yey!
Note to Self:
Still feeling a bit more sluggish than I’d like but getting there. Getting and feeling more productive. Fewer conversations in my head. Thinking about July already and whether I will do a month long project or not. I am thinking I’ll go back to my art journal which has been neglected. Any other ideas for July?
Oh and, one of the items on my list for 52 Things and for this month is to make items for my etsy shop. I am in need of ideas. Any ideas? Anything you’d like? I’m not sure I’m interested in selling things but I wanted to ask just in case there’s something someone might like to have me make.
Three Things I’m Grateful For:
1. I decided to take today off work and just relax and I’m grateful that I did. It was nice just to be with the kids, work on projects, read and snuggle up. Good to take a day off for no reason every now and then.
2. Grateful for date night tonight. I was inclined to stay home and work on my embroidery but I know I will enjoy date night a lot.
3. Grateful for my amazing husband who’s always so kind and patient with me and so good with the kids. We’re all so lucky.
Two Things David’s Grateful For:
1. daddy.
2. and daddy again!!
