I woke in a decent amount of pain today. Being that we had nothing scheduled today, I was gifted a morning in bed to rest my body. Cher had some plans reschedule, so she came and joined me. Brady made us scrambled eggs and toast, and we enjoyed breakfast in bed while we watched funny YouTube. It was super relaxed and felt great for my body to not move.
We did eventually surface, however. Brady went to do some work downstairs once the little ones went down for naps. Dekker got invited out to a friend’s house, and Laela helped in the basement.
My mom popped by for some things she had forgotten the other day, and ended up taking Laela along for her last errand for the day.
Cher and I took the kid-free opportunity to sit outside on the step in the sun. It wasn’t so toasty warm but fresh air was worth our time. We talked about warm weather, yard projects, gardens, trees, etc. Throw your BEST front yard tree ideas at me! Bonus points if they bear fruit!
Eventually, they all began waking up and being all cute.
We have kept a super low profile all day, and I think the evening will look about the same. Except Brady will likely do some more work in the basement still. Just you wait for the next basement update! Its SO close!!! I mean, no ceiling, but give that a year or two still. That will come after the yard and fence. But besides that, we’re SO close to being done in the basement!!!! Eek! But I’ll give that its own post 😉
We got a maple tree and I love it! The maple leaves are so beautiful and it’s the one that gets firy red in the fall.
I think it’s called Amur or Aspen maple – can’t quite remember.
I like the sound of that! Do you get extra maple bugs?
