Hearts, paint and sailboats

Breakfast of heart studded pancakes, picking up paint samples in the afternoon followed by some chalk sailboat drawings! You were such a delight today. You didn't run around like a mad man at the paint store and were more than willing to talk to me about what colors you think belong in the house. Black, green and blue.

then your sailboat drawing, you wanted me to take a picture of you with it. So cute!

and a little video. You said this the other day and I giggle. "Mama, I cried and cried and cried" it was too cute to miss.

Uncle Darrows

Some brunch on Sunday before we start out day. You just liked the powdered sugar!

Puzzles, Pirates and Pieces

This morning was all about imagination and brain power. You busted out your legos and wanted to make houses for all your animals. Once we had houses for the horse, goat and cow you made a car for the sheep. Lucky sheep!

I knew you loved these small 4 piece puzzles at school so I hunted down some cheapies (5 bucks!!!) and took them out today. It came with 4 total puzzles. You spent a good amount of time on them over and over. When it was time for lunch you brought them downstairs with you. This is always a sign that you LOOOVE something. You won't let it leave your sight.

After Lunch you dug into the puzzles again. I think between the puzzles and pirate book I have read a million times (on loan from school for the day) we blasted through the remainder of the morning.

Off to nap you went with one more reading of the pirate book. Ahhh the simple things. Today was a great day with you.

Quick walk

A quick walk after school turned into two walks. On the second lap You slammed on the breaks when you saw this and jumped out if your car to grab it. I am pretty sure you made a good wish!

Putting them to bed

The last few days you have been putting the wonder pets to bed. You find the mats, line them up. Give each pet a drink of milk. Kiss each one good night and tuck them in. I love how orderly you are with it and how sweet the whole process is. You even run back later to wake them up.

Humpback Whale

I was giggling this a.m. We watched "Go Diego, Go!" and they were saving a Humpback Whale. You were really into it and talking about it for a few hours. Mama, you be Deigo, I be the Humpback Whale. If I didn't watch the show with you. I would have never known what you were saying. Here is how you say Humpback whale.
