Painting, Blowing Raspberries, and Laughter

You would think that after yesterday’s day of activity, all I’d want to do today was stay in bed and sleep. Well, yes, but… I didn’t. Instead, I wanted to go visit my daughter, son-in-law, and the little kids. When I went up there, guess what they were doing?

You’d also think I’d had enough of painting since I’ve done so much of it myself. Well, yes, but… I love painting. I love seeing the before and after and the colors of these walls were such hideous baby-poop gold and, I’m ashamed to admit, the same gold I had in my house when the kids lived with me. Oh no! It just occurred to me that they must have been in a hurry to repaint so they wouldn’t have to relive the horrors of living with me every time they looked at the wall color. Just kidding. They picked out a really pretty green-gray that is so relaxing. I can’t wait to see it all finished.

This was Cayden’s contribution to the painting.

While taking a break, I took some pictures of one of my favorite little men. Just look at this little face. Doesn’t that just melt your heart? He sure knows who his “damma” is.

And this video totally cracks me up. Seriously. I had just finished feeding Evan some broccoli and carrots so his face is still messy. And the background noise is his parents rolling paint on the wall. Check out what he does to my camera lens.

 

All in all, it’s been a great weekend so far, and now I really am going to get some rest.
