This week, Emma and some neighbor girls decided to start a
playdate switchoff, where each mommy gets a couple hours without kids to get stuff done. Tuesday was Emma's day and she said it was
great. She plans to get a lot of work and stuff around the house done during those hours. Running errands is much simpler without kids, too!
Today was our first day to watch the kiddos. Lelia & Jaydan, the twins from next door, came over for lunch and playtime. Jenga was out front on the leash, but I was able to come in and see the kids in action. (Emma blocked me off from the living room so the kids could eat snacks though- that was sort of a bummer!) I like those kids and am looking forward to seeing them every Thursday while their mommy goes to class. Beckett was somewhat possessive of his mommy, but otherwise had a fun time playing with kids his age. (He especially liked eating their snacks!)
Almost all our blog friends around here have already posted about our big snow day yesterday. Does it show that we're all a little excited? Jon tried to go into work, but after some near collisions decided to come back home...and we were excited that he did. He got to play in the snow with us! Beckett liked everything about the snow day except for wearing those gloves. He wanted them off! Cole was having fun throwing and eating the snow. We were all pretty impressed with Jon's snowball throwing and accuracy. He hit a boy across the street in the back! I had never seen snow before and was a little confused, but Jenga knew what this crazy white substance was and showed me how to run and play in it. I got to go out front with the family and play. Rebecca and Colin came over. He's a cute kid and he liked it when I licked his face! I headed out back so that Emma and the boys could go across the street and play with Cameron and Katy for a little bit. I hope it snows again. It was fun! We still have a little bit of snow in our yard this morning but it will probably melt away today.
