Lazy Days

 Wyatt and I have had two days to ourselves to enjoy while our neighbor kids spend time with their mom on her days off. I always look forward to these days and seeing what fun we will have together! Yesterday while folding laundry Wyatt decided he wanted to wear his hat, a scarf, and a bib. It made for a cute ensemble :)

There has been so much on my mind lately I am having a hard time getting it to settle. I have been busy trying to engage the kids and find fun things for them to do every day. We spent a lot of time this last week going to the park and playing with play-doh, stickers, and crayons at home.

A few weeks ago we went to the local animal sanctuary to say hello to the bison, wolves, birds, and donkeys. That was a lot of fun!

I have been wanting to get out sledding or cross country skiing, but I am not sure about the logistics of taking all 3 kids out at once, especially since the two little ones may not be ready for sledding and I would have to haul all 3 in the sled for skiing. The lack of good snow and the right temperature has also held me back, although maybe I shouldn't let it. It suddenly became a lot more challenging when I added 2 children to my daily life!

As it is, we enjoy our days playing and learning, and I can see in little bits and pieces the progress we are making together in learning to share, learning new letters, and learning new words. God is good and I am so grateful for His many blessings!
