Birds, Bees, Frogs, and a couple of Kids

I for some reason was exhausted today. The kids seem to be too as they were very low key today.

Eli wanted to go outside today so we went out. At first he wanted to do bubbles but decided chalk was his choice of play. So away we went to play with chalk.
All he seemed to want to do was count and stack them which was fine we worked on counting.

Lilliana was content to watch her brother and the cars go by with that silly finger that has been in her mouth since birth it seems

I should add that that dress is a 12 month dress!!! Although I do question the size I still can't believe it fits her.

We also have pumpkins growing in the cracks of our sidewalks.


Eli decided that he would move it to another crack. I was going to have to pull it at one point but was interested to see how big it would get.


I took some pictures of some bees. We also have a huge pine tree next to us and I realized today most of the birds live in it. I walked over and they all got super mad and went crazy. I saw bluejays, doves, cardinals, robins, and some other ones. The two doves were in the backyard. I did not have my telephoto on just my prime lens so this was the best picture I could get.



Eli decided to start being a goon. He is talented.


He is just hilarious and been doing some funny things. You know that picture you see of the kid sharing his ice cream with the dog? Well Eli had a moment like that today. He was eating lunch and had his spoon in his yogurt eating and then his other hand was dipping into it feeding it to Kenya. I failed to get a picture only because it was at the table and I had already told him not to do it so I did not want him to be ok but it was a brilliant thought after the fact. Lilliana of course fell asleep while I was getting lunch.


We all took a much needed nap. Anthony was able to get home early tonight so he helped with dinner. It was so nice. He found a baby toad outside so I went and took some photos of it.

All in all it was a pretty boring day. I did get a lot done including some more baby food and my car cleaned but other than that nothing too exciting. This next week will be super busy but I am looking forward to it.

I just have to advertise for a friend of mine. She just recently got an embroidery machine and I wanted some cute bibs. Lilliana drools a lot so I wanted something that was not the typical in the store look. So she made me some and they turned out great. You can check out her Facebook page here. She makes some great things but I am partial to these. So thank you so much Jessi! I think these will be a hit!
