Mack’s been wearing his hat sideways and going around saying “Cool Dude”. I think his brother taught him that!

Sean’s been loving riding his tricycle around the circle we live in.
Mack’s a little upset he couldn’t go too.
I *think* I have a trike for him to ride as well.
(Must find where that box is).

We played with chalk in the driveway today. Ahhh, I love spring.

This is the best activity ever. I love it. Keeps them entertained for a while & the mess is contained outside (no inside clean-up) and they get fresh air. Can’t ask for anything better!

Sean loves drawing happy faces. He just learned how.

The contractors seem to be doing their work on time, and I think they’ll be out of my hair by the weekend. I like this. Not too much else going on around here, getting stuff organized, keeping up with the spring cleaning, trying to organize plans for Mackenzie’s 2nd birthday, knocking stuff off my to-do list including wrapping 3 birthday gifts for 3 upcoming birthday parties, so that I’m not scrounging around the morning of the party (or an hour before) trying to wrap the gift to find out I don’t have what I need to wrap it). Feels good to cross stuff off your to-do list. Ahhhh! Yes.

Off to go crawl into bed & continue reading as much Spin as I can before I fall asleep.

Another fun no-mess activity is to give them a bucket of water and a couple of paint brushes so they can "paint". I'm telling you, they LOVE it!
