Jack’s new favorite past time – stomping in puddles. It may turn into a soaked child, but the joy on his face is worth it.
We joined a MOPS playgroup at the local spray park… Jack saw the water turn on, went running straight for it, then stopped right in his tracks once he got close. There are several spouts that spurt up at different intervals and I think he was very unsure of them. He did find this one that was broken and only spurted out a short fountain. He, and all the other toddlers, liked splashing around in it.
Jack and I were waiting outside for Nick to get home so Jack could play with Breana and Nick & I could go out on a date for our anniversary. I think we were discussing fireworks and the 4th of July, and I’m not exactly sure what Jack was telling me, but I don’t think it was too terribly nice. 
I had been pretty burnt out with Jack this week, so our friends Tyler and Amber were gracious enough to watch Jack for an afternoon so I could go get my hair cut. I had some time before my appointment, but was at a complete loss of what to do – the first thought that crossed my mind was of all the errands I could run… but after a phone call to Nick who told me to stop being ridiculous and go do something just for me, I went to Ivanna Cone in the Haymarket and had some really yummy ice cream. After the afternoon was over, I felt a million times better. Why don’t mom’s (or rather me) do that kind of thing more often??
A fun morning at the farmer’s market – full of kettle corn, egg rolls, lemonade, and people watching.
Nick surprised me with this present for our anniversary. It took over a week to get here, but when it did, I tore into it and have not stopped reading since. I have always loved to read – and this will definitely help me to keep reading no matter where I am – it will especially come in handy during those late-night feeding sessions with the new baby. Isn’t my hubby the best?
Just hanging out, watching Jack’s new obsession – “Cars”. It warms my heart when he hangs out next to me and feels compelled to touch me and lean on me. So sweet.
And so… I think we are finally caught up! Now I just need to keep at it .
