Blanket blobs… and a few other pics from the day

This one is for you, Mema! This is why I was giggling through our phone call.

The video is long and boring and of course I turned it off two seconds too soon. Moments after I turned it off Eve hopped her way directly into the wall! I fell over laughing so, of course, she did it again! Funny girl. Funny kids!!

We had a slow, but productive on my part, day today.

quiet

Chillin’ together in the office. They spent a lot of time hanging out together today. It was sweet.

mail

New school supplies! I love these bento boxes. I bought them years ago when the kids were going to daycare. Lex has used his for lunches the past two years. This year they each got new boxes (so I could have the old ones for spares/backups!) and Eve got a carrier. Lex has a good one still from last year. They were SUPER excited when the mail lady arrived today!

texting

Texting with daddy. She sent a message to him for me and then decided to send her own as well. Mine was a grocery list, hers was “I love you. Love Eve.”

painting

Eve and I painted some clay objects we made earlier in the week. She has a butterfly and a bear cave, I have a flower. Lex spent much of the afternoon working on a secret message on the tablet. I have another blog post coming someday about his tablet messages. (they are blog worthy because they are all love notes to me!)

baking

Here’s what I did with most of the day. Eve was very helpful in the beginning, while Lex worked on his paper Transformer, then they both went off and played together while I finished up. We made two loaves of bread, Pineapple Sunshine muffins, oatmeal raisin cookies with dark chocolate covered raisins, and chicken parm (no cheese) for Alan.

blanket blobs

Blanket blobs creeping (not so) quietly through the kitchen while I was on the phone.
