I changed Eve's diaper the other day. She ran out and hopped on the swing before I could get a new diaper and pants on her. Eve is my free spirit. She potty trained herself back in February, and she is now back in diapers. It's like she purposely decided to forget how to use the potty because she really doesn't care to know how to use the potty anymore. So, I could be upset and try and force her to wear panties. Then I would be cleaning up pee all the time. I've chosen to be okay with the situation and just let it go. I'm fine with her being in diapers again. I know that when she decides she's ready to wear panties again, she will go back to keeping panties dry again day and night without any problems. But, Eve has to decide that she wants it for herself.
For lunch the other day, I pulled out some whipped cream to dip strawberries in. The girls could hardly wait for the strawberries. They started dipping their fingers and hands into the whip cream. When I served them their lunch, they were dipping their sandwiches and chips in their also.
I just had to laugh. A little whipped cream with lunch won't hurt anyone. They had so much fun licking that white, yummy goodness of their fingers and food.
I love this picture. Looks can say a thousand words. Eve's saying "What?" Alison is saying, "Hey slow down, don't eat it all."
Somehow I have become the lawn mowing wife. I actually like to mow the lawn. It's a workout, and I think our yard looks so nice when it's mowed. Aaron gets home from work later in the evenings, and I would rather he spends that time with the girls and me, so I mow the lawn during the day.
Recently, Aaron took a lawn mowing day off of work. I mowed and he edged. The girls were following me around the yard as I mowed the lawn. Aaron got a few pictures of this funny moment. It was like mother duck and her little ducklings. I'm sure the neighbors chuckled at the sight.
We visited Great Grandma Davies a couple of weeks ago. I'm so grateful that my girls have been able to build a relationship with their great grandparents. They love to visit Grandma because she always has a treat to share.
The girls took me out to dinner for my birthday. We had such a great time.
Aaron took off work early and totally surprised us at dinner. He crept up to our table and scared me to death when he whispered in my ear, "How's dinner?" It was a wonderful birthday.
Alison still talks about the silly birthday song the employees sang to me. She thought it was so funny.
