Loving the Leaves
Today when I carried Aaron outside ... he squirmed to get down. He crawled straight over and sat himself in our leaf pile. It's so fun to discover the joy of simple things all over again with a baby!
Waiting for the Ice Cream Truck
After school Joshua dashed inside to grab his wallet and a book to wait for the ice cream truck he thought was coming. The truck never came...but I don't think he noticed.
A Girl and Her Pony
Elizabeth has a thing for ponies. She watches "My Little Pony" every day. (What other children in our family like the show at least as much as she does.) We've even all got pony names. When we got our swing set, the fact that is came with a pony was nothing short of miraculous. Elizabeth spend time out with "Twilight Sparkle" almost every day ... riding and feeding and talking to her.
She's most notorious, though, for her boots from Grandma Franson.
We even plan her Sunday church outfits around them. They are definitely her trademark look!
First Cider Mill of the Season
First trip of the season to a favorite cider mill...
The reality ... we accidentally got there after they closed! After seeing animals, throwing rocks in the stream, and a berry fight up and down a nearby trail we stopped at the grocery store on our way home to snag some donuts. Nights like this are definitely some of our family's happiest times together.
Monkeys in the Tub
Bath time is requested by these two kids every day! Aaron crawls turbo-speed into the tub and stands there making loud sounds to let us know it's what he's hoping for. Elizabeth loves it because she allowed to use one of her best skills ... spitting. (I find her out on the deck spit cleaning the deck furniture.) If only we could keep Aaron sitting down. He's fearless ... and especially loves sticking his face in the small stream of water coming out of the faucet for a drink.
Walking Partner
Making the most of the last warm days with my walking partner.
Having something to push makes it so much for purposeful!
