What A Drag...

...having to go INDOORS when the weather is like THIS!





I've literally had to drag my kiddos inside. I mean, we do need to bathe and sleep and accomplish a FEW things each day. :-)


I should point out that our backyard is considered "common area," so the possibilities of my wanderlust children wandering off is pretty high...as is getting into other people's business.

LOOK! I actually caught a moment of peaceful existence on film!



It's nice to take the referee jersey and whistle off for a moment or two.


Rest assured, as soon as I snapped these photos and walked into the next room it was 'game on' again.
How do you convince a 4 yr. old that pinning her brother on the floor til he squeals will one day come back to haunt her?
Time to go back outside...

LOVE this post. The beauty in the photos...the truth in what you wrote.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who wears the referee jersey...all the time! Meghan does the same thing pinning Evan down till he cries...and after he cries. BUT he is an instigator, too!

These pictures are BEAUTIFUL!

I'm starting the referee phase already...and Gracie is only 8 1/2 months old. She LOVES her big sister's hair and will grab 2 big handfuls of it. And while we are walking in the double stroller, Gracie has started getting into Hannah's space and making Hannah squeal!
