Flashback

These boys were such delightful companions all day. We get up early, 5am, and I hoped we would be quiet enough that they would still sleep. Joneaux didn't wake up until I got back from taking Hannah to seminary. That was still pretty early!  Deo did sleep until I had to wake him to hop in the stroller and walk Grace to school.
We got everyone off to school and then I "let them" pick a movie so I could clean up and shower. 
Around 9 we headed out the door and went to Apollo Park. An old favorite. The lunar capsule was gone:( and the play equipment was different but we had a great time. The weather was perfect. The boys were complete monkeys, the geese were mean and we saw airplanes land and take off. What could be better?!
We stopped for lunch on the way home. Anna told me they love in-n-out. Nope. J even refused to order. Oh well no one was starving. 
Deo took an afternoon nap. J played Legos and dragons by himself so quietly for two hours! I couldn't believe it. He's a smart little guy and very funny. It's fun to have him around, he reminds me of Ethan when he was little. Deo is a snuggler and a giggler and just enough baby that it melts your heart. He's sleeping in our room and I love waking up and peeking over to see him laying there so angelically. 
These two little polar bears braved the chilly water for some diving and swimming fun. It's nice for Grace to be the big kid and she played patiently and happily with the boys all afternoon.
We had Mimi club. We read "no girls allowed" the Bernstein Bear book about the boy cubs building a fort that Sister couldn't go into and then Sister building one that the boys couldn't use and then in a surprise twist ending Mama stepped in and helped them see how much better it is to share. Then we built our own super cool fort.
J loves E. They played tic tack toe.

Tonight we went to the scouts court of honor. I only took one picture because it turns out that 2 year olds need a lot
of attention at courts of honor, oh yea.
The house is a bit of a tornado but we had a lot of fun.
