More from the aquarium. Almost done, I swear.
I’ve been trying to get up earlier so I can be up before the kids and give myself some time to wake up. It’s working better,too and I hope to get it to be 5am. Slowly.
After we took David to the bus, Nathaniel did his share of playing and exploring while I worked. He’s drooling a bit and teething a lot.
When David came from school, he wanted to color and sat at his table. Nathaniel immediately went over to see what was going on and to watch his brother (and take the markers away of course.)
so he had to go sit at the big table.
and Nathaniel moved on to other toys like the wrapping paper my mother in-law had brought over to wrap Jake’s presents. (look at that hair!)
Don’t you love that “what, I’m not doing anything” look….
David and I practiced smiling some more. We’re not making a lot of progress. I am not sure what to do.
And then Daddy came home and they both rejoiced.
We all rejoiced. We love Daddy so much.
Once the kids went down, Jake and I got to go out again. We saw “inception” which I’ve been wanting to see for a long time and I was not disappointed one single bit. Loved it. Came home, finished my layout and I am now off to bed.
Three Things I’m Grateful For:
1. I am grateful to get to go to the movies.
2. I am grateful for a three-day-weekend.
3. I am grateful that I will hopefully get some crafty time this weekend.
Three Things David’s Grateful For:
1. Coloring my brown bear at school
2. Meme’s present (a book)
3. Seeing Mommy and Nathaniel at lunch (we dropped off some paperwork there so we stopped to say hi to David.)
Tes photos sont merveilleusement belles et j’adore toute la tendresse qui s’en dégage, on le sent dans chacune de tes phrases!
Enjoy your three-day-weekend!
Bisous
I love your photos. They always bring a smily end to my day. Your sons are beautiful and have such expressive faces.
About smiling practice, we are at exactly the same stage with the little man (who will be 5 in November). I have given up trying and trust that the school photographer will get the best out of him. So far, he has managed to get smiles we could not have had in a million years. The little man literally beamed on his first year photo. He didn’t smile so widely on last year’s but at least he didn’t look like a troll (which is a vast improvement on all our recent family photos!). I think that faced with someone other than a parent behind the camera, the children really want to impress and give their best. I’m sure David will surprise you on the day.
well we’ll see, the day is today 🙂 I find the school photographers aren’t that great. but it doesn’t matter. i have a lot of photos of him 🙂
