Weekend Update

1.  We went to a BBQ/bonfire tonight at David and Mattea Whetstone's house.  It's so great to enjoy awesome food with good friends.  Also, Jack is afraid of small, harmless dogs but is NOT afraid of fire.  Go figure.

2.  Jack took a break from movies/videos this week (and by this "week," I actually just mean "three days").  We don't have tv, but I've been letting him watch YouTube videos, like Thomas the Train and Mickey Mouse, way too much lately.  Isn't it ridiculous that going three days without watching anything is some sort of an accomplishment here?  With winter coming, I definitely need to come up with more/better indoor activities for him.  Suggestions??

3.  Here's a recipe for lemon bread that I've been digging lately.  I usually double the amount of glaze on top, though, because I have something of a sweet tooth.

4.  Jack, Brooklyn, and Morgan have settled into a really nice routine during the weekdays. Morgan and Brooklyn have been taking two naps during the day at roughly the same time, which leaves me with one-on-one time with Jack.  This week we've been playing in our yard/garden/sandbox and getting as dirty as possible.  I took all three to the park, and the babies loved the swings.

5.  And just in case anyone is worried that Jeremy isn't getting enough air-time in this blog, here's a little morsel:
Just another night at home...playing a wood flute in the hall.  


That's all I have for tonight.  Our life isn't exactly glamorous, but it sure is good.

  1. Nora and I watched half of Finding Nemo this morning. Gotta have something in reserves for when I'm having a rotten preggo-tummy day! So don't feel bad. I think we all use the TV a bit more than is ideal. We've been playing outside a ton, too. Dirt is FUN! :)
