my three little men: week 31

The rain and thunderstorm predictions changed our weekend plans from time at the lake to going to Kansas and just hanging out with family. My parents hometown was celebrating their Flag Day. Which meant a very small parade and bounce houses. It doesn't take much for us to have a good time!

Once the rain cleared off, we went swimming and "Grammy and Gramps Pool." The pool has a great baby pool and the kids even were brave enough to jump off the diving board. Not to mention us mom's getting a tan.

I heard yelling from the living room and came in to find this.

On Monday, I celebrated a belated Mother's Day with my mom and sisters. Our husbands stayed home and watched kids, while we hit the road for Silver Dollar City without kids! Rides were on the adgenda. Although I love going with the kids, I need a couple trips without them to really experience all the rides. It rained off and on while we were there, and being a Monday, it wasn't too busy. Even with the rain, we were able to ride all the big rides, and some several times! No one brought it a camera to document the trip, but we did get this sweet Old Time Photo. A keepsake for sure.

Grammy and Aunt Audrey stayed the night, and we spent another morning bouncy with cousins! Bounce houses never get old. Because I've either been pregnant or had a newborn strapped to me the past time we've visisted, I went all out this time and got my workout in for the day.

Jason worked the second half the week, so the boys and I have been chilling at home. With the rain keeping us inside, it was the perfect time to bust out some early birthday presents from Grandma Musgrave. Amos has been a new character everyday. He loves dressing up and fully takes on each character.

This is what Ivan thinks about him. Speaking of Ivan, he's hit such a nice groove. He's sleeping great, eating great and the cutest thing I've ever seen. He likes to snuggle and enjoys a good laugh. He loves watching his hands. And he's gotten good a picking up little things - like puffs. He loves puffs. Still no crawling, but he does try so hard.

 

His brothers are the best at making him laugh. He just laughs and laughs at them.

While Jason was busy working, I got busy too, crossing off some tasks off my summer to-do list. I painted over a our water spots on the ceiling - the boring job. And then I painted our front door green - the fun job!! I've imagined our door this color almost since move in day, so once it was done, it looked like it had always been like that. I love it!

I have plans for some outside painting too, but I've got to wait for some sunny skies for that!
