Today over supper, we asked the kids what they were thankful for. I just thought their responses were adorable enough to share with you guys. Dekker said he was thankful for mommy, salad, and mustard. When we asked Laela, she just said “Oooooh baby!” So I’m taking that to mean she’s thankful that there’s another baby on the way? Yes, thats about right.
We had a pretty relaxed day today, again. The little lady crawled so much that she got rug burn all over her little feet!!
We spent most of the morning downstairs, then had an early lunch so we could go play outside before lunch. Laela played on the deck and posed as the little Gap model that she is while Dekker and Brady took off somewhere with the wagon. We never see much of the boys when we got play outside. I actually love that. They love each other.
When we got back in, the kids went down for a nap and Brady tilled the garden, which is the final step for our yard being ready for winter. Ugh. I’m not looking forward to winter. BUT I’ve decided to anticipate it happily as “mukluk months” rather than winter. Positivity, right?
We had a plethora of leftovers for supper this evening, and didn’t accomplish much this evening. I finally put the laundry away from washing it all on Saturday, but thats it!
Dekker went down really hard. I HATE disciplining him before bedtime, but I hate more the thought of always letting things slide at the same time. Doesn’t that set us up for a disaster every single day?? Anyway, going down was rough but its done, and I’m so ready for my bath.
Fun side note, though! As my acid reflux gurgles up in my throat, I’m reminded that I have a very important ultrasound this week!! Just for kicks, I thought it would be fun to give some details and see what people’s guesses are, like we did with Laela. Almost everyone voted “girl” for her, since my pregnancy was so different from Dekkers. I was positive I’d know immediately this time around because of it, but I have NO clue!!! I’m so curious to see, so lets all root for a cooperative baby! Maybe I’ll make that tomorrows post. I’m already looking forward to it 🙂
Since the holiday weekend is officially coming to a close, I wish you all the happiest of thankful evenings 🙂 Sleep deep!
