A few things... -We're going over plants and seeds! My oldest absolutely loves helping in the garden. Right now she's observing a bean grow in a mason jar. Each day we take down a few notes and discuss the transformation of the bean. - I planned an event at the park! It was wonderful.- Paint and bubbles in the park. A few moms showed up with their little ones and we all enjoyed the nice weather and chatted. -I've been making shakers for my littlest one. She's moving and grooving. She's a very active baby and loves to shake things. Using an old cinnamon candy container, food coloring, and noodles, I was able to create a simple and fun shaker.  -My littlest one is now 8 months. I'm continuing to nurse her and she's exploring pureed foods. Her favorite is a squash with brown rice.  -Our oldest daughter loves reading to us now. She's so wonderful and we enjoy the time that she reads to us. Childr

This day was simple and sweet.  Surrounded by my loved ones. I enjoyed it very much.

 I'm embracing these rainy days. Ah, the smell of rain.- So fresh. Perfect weather for a snuggle, a cup of coffee, and of course for the little ones to splash in rain puddles. We've been having a few thunderstorms late at night. Today it has mostly been a light sprinkle. - I'm enjoying this very much. Currently -Baking an apple coffee cake in the slow cooker. -Piles of books lay on our living room floor.  -My oldest is singing. She enjoys this very much. And of course, her little sister can't stop smiling. -A warm cup of coffee awaits me in the kitchen. -Rain is coming down. It really is relaxing. -I've started a load of laundry. Something about doing laundry on a rainy day... -Math lessons are set aside for our oldest. -We'll get to them later this evening. For now... We will enjoy our time together on this rainy day.
