Before last week happened we had happily been like a boomerang going from day trippin’ outings with friends to back home again. This weekend and today we’ve stayed extremely close to home. Today I sat down to look at the images from some of our latest antics….
Lara & Marc got some new chicks and we jumped at the chance to join Cole & Caroline to see them. Maggie was delighted and wasn’t the least bit scared to touch the little birds. I, on the other hand, was a bit skittish.
Being in a ‘playgroup’ with Lara, Nicole, Krista & Erin is so easy. It isn’t quite convenient with all of us spread out, but when we get together the kids have a ball and us girls do too. (But Marc, it is a play date….not a girls weekend.)
Back home, Maggie has finally figured out how to open our backdoor on her own (only if it ‘s unlocked, so don’t go worrying too much) and constantly is letting Sydney in and out. More often than not we’re also ‘invited’ outside with Maggie to stomp in the puddles, get into the gardener’s shed or balance on the wall.
We’ve gotten to a point where she can get her own boots on and will drag our (either my or Barry’s…sometimes both) shoes out of the closet too. We last about 30 minutes before she starts saying “Burrrr” and rubbing her arms. That doesn’t necessarily mean that she always wears shoes…or a coat, but we try. This and that don’t seem that far off.
Tomorrow we’re boomeranging up to A-Town to take some pictures of some friends and do some other business related things. Will you do your sun dance for us because we don’t like to take rainy pictures…
Hope your week holds some friend-filled adventures…
