Picture Catch Up

I’ve been slipping with my daily blog updates! We’ve been hanging out at home, keeping cool, staying busy and counting down until we head to the woods. 

I slept in on day and check out this amazing family selfie they took without me! I am going to photoshop myself into it somewhere! 


Possibly even more fun than the pool is making mud puddles around the yard to jump in and then wash off in the pool. At one point, the pool water was BLACK and I was worried the neighbors were going to judge us for how cruddy it was.

Saturday was Xander’s buddy Skylar’s 5th birthday party. Most of the kids are back to daycare and I was so happy he could see everyone and also sad that we aren’t back to normal yet. It made no sense for the boys to go back for June, leave in July, go back in August and then switch to their new pre-k in September. But I am sad that the boys don’t get to play with friends every day.  It was nice to see Xander run around and socialize. Augustus and Nate had a special daddy/son trip to the park while Xander and I were at the party.

When we got home, we played some “floor is lava” which is a new show on Netflix that the boys are super into. We made our own at-home version and they enjoyed it.

Xander is still working hard on his new chore chart. He has a very expensive toy picked out and he has been doing all kinds of tasks to earn stickers towards a reward. He does really well with a goal and is very motivated. 


We woke up to pouring rain this morning and I just couldn’t bear the thought of a long day stuck inside. We got ready to go right away and headed to Inneractive, which is an indoor play place. They had so much fun and came home exhausted.
