Summer is finally HERE! So this week, no school stuff... I mean seriously I have done nothing for school, I told Kellin there would 3 weeks of this so I think I am doing great so far. So this week we joined a moms' play group which was cool and tried out the Open Gym for the Gymnastics Place. We already do library on Monday and each afternoon we are trying something together...building with Legos, the water table, coloring with crayons, digging in the garden. It has been awesome. I know this is a summer that I will look back on and cherish for many years to come. We still visit daycare once a week, cause Aiden misses his friends, so we drop in for a visit but pretty much its just the two of us Monday-Friday- GREAT!

We'd Like to take Credit

May 8th

June 6th

We'd like to think we have a green thumb, but really its probably all this crazy rain and sun and humidity we have been having....whatever it is our gardens are going crazy. The herb garden we decided we were tired of flowers that kept dying behind our big window so over Spring Break Aiden and I planted a little of everything; basil, thyme, fennel, sage, dill, cilantro, parsley, you know the usuals- now CRAZY!

Then the other garden, Kell's bday creation to himself. We started with little baby plants and some even at seed and now we have this....I think its gonna be a yummy summer!

Slide Purchase

So about two months ago I decided from Aiden's slide obsession since I am taking him out of daycare for the next 7 weeks to be with mommy, that in order for him not to hate me (since daycare has 3 slides) I had better find one for our backyard. So I knew I wanted to spend little to nothing and wanted it to be small enough he could fall off/not need me, but not so small that he was bored after a week. It has become like a treasure hunt....searching CraigsList each week or asking people around to keep eyes open for me, just for the right one. Then last week Kellin got involved....all of a sudden it was $299.00 ones he could have till he was 10 and ones that would be shipped to us and inflate! Too much for me. So I convinced him to let me go to one garage sale in a neighborhood by my parents house, we woke up early and first street we went on we saw this little faded LIttly Tikes climber. It was love at first sight (a new one would be faded by the end of summer anyway) Kellin asked, he said $20, I said SOLD! Now our little climber has a beautiful home with a crazy kid who loves already to slide and run for hours and a happy mom who can sit back and afford to buy herself a bottle of wine and toast to her slide treasurer.
