A Day at Our House

At our house, the days can be pretty busy or particularly boring, but either way, I love each one because they're spent with my three favorite people!

*

This is what we did yesterday:

Once I woke up, I started on chores--dishes and laundry, two things that are done daily around here! Then, Jackson woke up, the kids and I had breakfast, got dressed and went outside to play.

Jackson grinned from ear to ear the entire time we were swinging! Sarah had a blast playing too! She and I even did the teeter-tooter and see-saw together!

Then, I went ahead and popped Big J into the tub for a bath, we changed clothes, (even though we were outside at 9, we still got hot!), and went to the library. This is Sarah's favorite place to visit during the summer! Once we came home, Jack had a big cup of milk, then went down for his nap. While he was sleeping, Sarah and I baked cookies. (Luckily, the mixer and the vacuum don't bother Bubs at all while he's napping!) A few minutes after this picture was taken, the mixer started smoking and died! Bryan's mom bought us that mixer when we got married, and I've used it hundreds of times since then! I was so sad! I've already bought a new one! : ) After the homemade oreos were cooled and assembled, Sarah had to try one! She said, "love at first bite" after tasting it!

Then, she started reading one of her library books. Is she not the most adorable little book worm?!

Once Jackson got up and had his lunch, we started play time! He loves riding around in his car and pushing his dump truck!

Jackson also loves playing with all of his toys, banging on his pots and pans, and reading his books!

Then, Daddy came home! Play time stops momentarily and hugs and kisses begin!

Jack has been walking the majority of the time lately. He will still get down and crawl if he wants to get to someone or something really fast, but otherwise, he just walks!

After dinner and tucking the little man into bed, Sarah, Daddy, and I played Pictionary. We had so much fun! Sarah was really good at doing the drawing too--for "bermuda shorts" she drew the Bermuda Triangle and a long pair of shorts!!

Then, Bryan and I tucked Sarah in and had a "date." We snuggled on the couch and watched a Netflix movie together!

A great ending to a great day!
