This pic is actually from yesterday when we celebrated with family. We all stayed up way too late and are dragging this morning. Nothing on deck today except house chores and naps! DD1 wants to swim in her little splash pool but we will wait till this afternoon/evening when the shade hits that part of the house so I can weed too. Despite my lack of green thumb I grow weeds well.  |

Happy 4th O17!  We had a fun day over here. It was LO’s first swimming lesson, and he did really well! He loves the water, just like his big brother. Baby took an awesome nap afterwards too. He was working hard! DS1 ate all his American dinner like a champ, and I dressed him in red white and blue. Gotta represent 😁 Hope all the Americans here have a great day celebrating! |

Happy 4th of July! We have a pretty busy day today. Costco, dog to the groomer, and then the farmer’s market. The farmer’s market has a kids program where each week kids between 4 and 12 (they have to be 4 by October and DD turns 4 in September so she just made the cut to start this year) get a token to spend at the booths along with a recipe. The token can be cashed in for fruits vegetables or plants, it’s to encourage healthy eating. DD used it for vegetables the first week and got a whole big cucumber and tomato! Last time she used it for a fruit and got an apple and a bunch of cherries. I wonder what she will get today!

I am celebrating the miracle of DS2 sleeping so much better than i expected. I did doze off twice in the glider in our room at the beach house with him, but that was all of his wake ups, which is phenomenal for him. Maybe i need to give him a blanket at home. I forgot his fleece sleepsack, and with the box fan he needed to drown out cousins getting ready for bed and fireworks the room got cold, so i gave him the blanket we keep in the car.

All activities in the area have been cancelled due to weather. Lots of rain since last night. So quiet day indoors for us.

Boring day here, with nothing planned. Maybe we'll take the kids to the beach this afternoon. I need to fold laundry. Exciting stuff  S is 8.5 months old  |

Happy 4th! Currently visiting my mom with the kids, they haven’t seen her since my sisters wedding almost 3 weeks ago. It’s stinking hot today so we’ve already done the park and now enjoying the AC and catching up.

@doddlemommy the token is such a fun idea! I love it! It’s sponsored by local businesses so it’s free! They get a little bag and everything! And today’s kid’s activity is a bouncy castle. It’s pretty close to home so we try to go every week we are around! Fingers crossed for no rain! |

Here’s LO showing off her teeth. Both of them!  We aren’t doing much today. I took big kid to get ice cream. He and DH are going to fireworks tonight and the baby and I are going to hopefully have a quiet night. I might make some popcorn and watch A Very English Scandal. I keep starting the first episode but never have time to watch it all. |

We're at my mom's. This is how I found LO when he woke up from his nap. Apparently he can sit up on his own now! We knew he was close. He's so close to crawling, too.
*poof*

My big one fell into the water at the beach today. He was standing at the edge throwing rocks in, then he must have lost his balance or something because he suddenly was in and under the water, and he is an extremely cautious child. Fortunately FIL was close and got him out very quickly. I was much more shaken up than he was. The little guy loved the fireworks, but I'm now fighting overtired with the power of my boob.  |

So scary, glad your little guy is ok! |
