Since our October snowstorm, we've had a spell of beautiful days - sunshine and temperatures in the upper 50's - 70's through the first half of November!
On this Wednesday morning, Isaac met his buddies Jack and Oliver at a playground.
Here we are getting ready - Isaac in his cute new flannel shirt from Deedah, Jonah in a gorgeous sweater made for him by a very talented friend.
We have so many playgrounds in our neighborhood, that somehow we'd never been to this one before. The boys loved it.
Last year's pants...
Isaac always wants whatever food Megan brings...This time it was almonds. See how he is eyeing his next bite even while he still has one in his hand.
Jonah slept through the whole playdate.
But that meant Isaac and I had a lot of time to play together. He has missed me a lot, and after visiting with his friends for a bit, he just wanted to play with me. We drove the bus to school again and again, stopped for snack breaks ("watermelon" anyone?), sang silly songs, and crossed the wobbly bridge together. My mama friends kept an eye on Jonah for me so I could focus on Isaac - the best gift possible for us on that day.
How do you get a 2-year-old to follow you to the car when you already have a child to carry? How can my distractions compete with a fountain to play with? Isaac still loves water...and we eventually got to the car. Mainly, you just can't be in a hurry.
