Regular Ole February Life

Regular life is good life:)

Sawyer loves to look at books.  He doesn't love to be read to though.  He's getting better but typically he wriggles out of my lap and goes to the other end of the couch where he can hold his own book and look at it by himself.  One day he decided to read a parenting book by Dr. Dobson that I currently have sitting on the end table.  Maybe it will inspire him to be the perfect child?

If the piano bench is out, it's a sure thing you will see this at some point.  But I usually keep the bench pushed all the way in because it's also a sure thing that you will see one or both kids climbing up the keys to the top of the piano.

When you really don't want to wear the headbands that your daughter gives you but then you put it on and she says "You look pretty mommy!", you wear it for awhile:)  And then you have terrible indentations on your forehead when you finally take them off.

Spending the day in Indy with the four of us!  Cheesecake Factory, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, The Container Store, IKEA, and Portillo's.  Followed by some Olympics watching upon our return home.  Fun times!

And while you're in Indy and the babysitter sends you this picture.... this has never happened before!

Clown hat from circus day at the library toddler time.  I should have stapled the stem a little bit farther down:)

After about two months of Summer asking us if she could sleep in her big girl bed we finally gave in.  It's been set up in our basement for guests to use and she knew it would eventually be hers.  She loves it!

Oh and speaking of the circus, there was a small one ring circus that came to town!  We felt bad cause there was probably only 40ish people there, but they still put on a show.  And I got to ride the elephant!  Something I've always wanted to do but never did cause it's $10 for about 2 or 3 minutes of riding time.  But with elephants not really being in the circus anymore I thought it might be now or never.  So glad we did!  I grinned like that the whole time we were riding:)

The show was pretty decent too.  Good enough to keep this squirmy wormy sitting still for an hour!

Yep, regular life is pretty good.
