It’s Been A Banner Day

And by banner day I mean Libby both

ate dog poop

and swallowed a penny.

We also had to go to the shoe store.

I hate going to the shoe store.

Why are there never carts?

And everything is toddler height.

And loads of stools and mirrors.

It’s basically a free carnival without the benefits of fried anything.

The only picture I may take today is me going to bed early after a startling amount of hot chocolate.

It’s fine. It’s fine.

At least not all days are like this.

Most days Libby only eats actual food.

See, fine.

So, I make my kids play outside.

Even after they make arguements about how much time they spend outside:

{ALL DAY!}

walking to school: 10 min

walking from school: 10 min

recesses: 45 min.

I did the math, roughly one hour,

out of 12.

But when else would they get to do fun things like…..make up dance routines on the front porch.

SEE?!

We’re doing something right.

  4. I am glad I'm not the only one who has a gross baby. Lily puts everything in her mouth, including when she was playing in Eliza's poopy toilet water with her binky and then repeatedly put it her mouth cause it was so delicious.
