Day 3 & 4

I am posting about day 3 & 4 of our "30 Days of Fun"

Day 3 turned into a "movie theater" day, mostly because my pink eye was killing me, haha, but we still made it fun by making fake movie tickets, laying out blankets all over the living room floor, and enjoying some popcorn and juice. Wyatt picked out The Prince of Egypt so Wyatt, Porter, and I snuggled up on the floor and have a movie day.

Day 4 was a "Just Like Daddy" day. Wyatt loved this, but then again he is at the age where he loves being just like dad :) He got dressed in his work clothes (or as he calls it, his "MetLife clothes). He put on his white shirt, black pants, and elephant tie. I asked him if he wanted shoes and he laughed and said "I don't wear shoes at work"

I set up his desk in the playroom to make it look like his office. He was using Andrew ipad case and pretending it was a real ipad. He had my old phone that he was making lots of calls on. He was setting up appointments and kept taking breaks to call grandpa and asking him to come play hot wheels. I set up a sign on his desk that said "MetLife Financial Adviser" and we used his Monopoly money cards too. He absolutely loved playing daddy for a day. When Porter got up from his nap he joined us and Wyatt was making him be his assistant. Porter wasn't doing everything that was asked of him so Wyatt told him that he needed to go to time out for not listening. Oh goodness, these boys are too cute.

30 Days of Fun!

So I came up with this idea that I am calling 30 Days of Fun. I wrote out a list of creative new things that would be fun to do with the boys. Things that you can easily do in your house or backyard. So every day we will have something fun and new planned and after that 30 days I will re-write another creative list. I incorporated fun, math, science, art, and more! So we have completed the first 2 days. Day one was making monster puppets and putting on a puppet show. Day two was setting up a vet clinic in Wyatt's room (complete with waiting room and exam room) I will post our new adventures every day so stay posted :) I think this is a great way to have something new and exciting each day and it keeps their little minds going! I'm excited about all the fun things we have planned!




The waiting room...







Rain. Rain. Rain

I love when it rains, mostly because it never does rain so it's such a nice treat! Over the weekend it rained like crazy and hailed. The boys were loving it. Wyatt was playing in it and Porter kept saying "wus at" (what's that)

Porter's 1st Birthday!

I will be saying this every year that get older but I really can't believe Porter is 1! It sunk in more to me when I got to hold my nephew Walter just how big Porter has gotten. There are lots of pictures so bare with me....

The boys and I took a little trip to Target with their gift card and got a Little People batman cave, a chunky wood puzzle, and some race cars :)






Here is the birthday party (Wyatt was sick that's why his nose was so red!)






















Here are some pictures with Walter. He is so cute and so sweet! I can't wait till we see him again... and next time we won't be sick next time!








And last but certainly not least (my favorite picture) This picture is perfect because it's reality. This will be a great photo to show these boys later in life.
