or what are you looking forward to doing with them?


i love to take my kids to the park....mostly bc they love it there. me...not so much, but their little smiles as they run around make it worth it! lol. i also LOVE LOVE LOVE taking them to the movies. i know that may seem weird bc it is so impersonable....BUT i LOVE when they snuggle with me for 2 hours..... the last time we went i ended up with a 7 month old and 2 1/2 year old on my lap, and a 5 year old hanging on my leg. lol....see...that's why i can't lose weight, i NEED a big lap for movies.

Oh, the list is so long...

My absolute favorite thing to do with our children is to read together. We probably spend no less than 2 hours a day snuggled in a chair reading together. (That's why I find it hard to get my chores done!)

I also love taking them to the park...or doing anything outside with them. Right now we live in a town home with a tiny yard, but we make the most of it and take daily trips to the park. We roll out our standing sand box from the garage and fill our tiny pool in the grass. We'll make due until we can move - hopefully soon!

We also love going camping, visiting the library, and visiting the grandparents who live at the farm and at the lake. Great memories and great photo ops!

We love the park, too. We especially love parks with good sand for our trucks and sand toys. A lot of new parks have mulch or bark, which I guess is softer for landing on, but not much fun and for some reason my boys always want to throw it. Anyway, that's another topic . . .

We also love hiking, playing with water in either the water table or the pool, going the zoo (an all time favorite!), and dancing! Somehow we got in this routine of dancing around the living room after lunch and after dinner. I'm not sure how it started, but I cannot resist one, or both, of my sons grabbing my hand and saying "Dance me, Mommy!"
