Glimpses
It has been raining here again, all day. I really don't mind the rain, but it is hard on the kids. So today I decided to let them go outside in the afternoon and play anyway. It wasn't pouring, just sprinkling at that point, and they had so much fun. It still wasn't enough time outside, but...it was something.
Aside from today the weather in the last week or so has been nice. Sunny, cool days. Just right for taking walks.
I don't really want to take pictures in the rain, but on a sunny day I love to do it!
Guess who has been my most cooperative subject lately?
I can get pictures of Michaela, but she has taken to making faces at me when I have the camera out.
I don't know where she gets this from...ideas anyone?
I love her fleece, and I looked for one like it in my size but there was nothing. Grown-ups can only buy trendy, stupid-looking, frumpy, colorless clothes right now. Well, unless they want to spend a lot of money, which I do not. I love the stripes. I'm Christina and I am a stripe addict.
They stay so busy when we are outside...they don't stop moving. They dance, and jump, and wiggle.
We've been to a couple of different parks and the kids always love to watch the ducks.
Add climbing and some more jumping...
I enjoy watching them...it's much more fun than staring at the five loads of laundry in my living room that won't put themselves away.

Is Michaela growing out her bangs or do they just need a trim?
Technically they do need a trim! But since she's growing them out, she's suffering through it! That's why they're clipped to the side, poor thing. I tried to warn her...
I agree, lots more fun than washing all that laundry. If you ever find out how to make laundry put itself away be sure to let me know!
I like your shadow photos. Very fun! And I'm a stripe addict too. I think it's because I like order, plus colors.
Chandra-Yes! I like patterns. I like order, yet my life is so disordered. Why is this so?!
Mommas Soapbox-I'll be a rich woman one day if I can figure that out. The best I can come up with so far is to call on a sweet lady from your church to come over and babysit your daughters, leave with your son, and return home to find two loads of laundry folded on your coffee table. It's not put away yet, but one step closer to it!
