it was sunny and on the warm side (60s) so i could open the glass sliding doors and let madelyn play outside while i worked. she spent almost the entire work day outside. she only came in for meals, snacks, and the times i needed to put mason down or get him up from a nap (she isn't allowed to be outside or alone with the dogs when i am upstairs). mason does not get to enjoy that same freedom and was glad that he could at least see and call the dogs over for an occasional kiss/lick. he is so cute just watching everything going on. the standing is kind of new and if he pulls too hard, the gate swings open and he ends up on his bottom.while i prepared lunch the kids were watch a cartoon and when i saw mason's head pop-up i knew i needed to get the camera. aren't they cute?
mason didn't really take an afternoon nap so we were all together most of the day. madelyn spent hours blowing bubbles for the dogs to chase. she also drew with chalk, played in the sandbox, and kicked around a ball. she has so much fun playing with the dogs outside. and i am so thankful for the safe play while i work. it helps me not feel guilty having to keep her inside on
a nice day. she crashed as soon as she sat down on the couch while i was making dinner. she does that every now and then when she doesn't take a nap for a few days. she just can't get over that 4 or 5 o'clock hump if she has the chance to close her eyes.we had to wake her up from a very deep sleep around 7 so that she could get a shower before bed. she was very, very dirty and had been requesting a shower instead of a bath since yesterday. after a thorough shower she went straight to bed without dinner; at her request.
now we will see how we fare the rest of the week as the rain moves in... love.
