The face of a mama who has the whole weekend off, with her honey, no less! Happy anniversary to us!

A fort + stars + handsome little boy.

This year of pre-kindergarten homeschool has not been easy. It's been difficult to find a rhythm amidst frightful teething toddlers, vengeful nap skippers, and enticing time wasters. But, for now, we're back into that place where everything seems a little more under control, and we've resumed our daily lessons. And we're finding that we really, truly enjoy it.

This book was Judah's favourite at this age.  These two are so alike.

(27/365)

A still from one of our truly epic dance parties. 

(26/365)

Inspecting their pinhole masterpieces. 

(25/365)

"I'm just going to hide under dis again!"

(24/365)

He truly is a long-suffering beast.

(23/365)

Playing in pyjamas all morning, sending hotwheels shooting down the stairs. It's a pretty sweet gig.

(22/365)

A three-year-old in his snack time element.

She climbed onto one side of the bench by the window, crawled carefully across to the other end, got down, trotted over to the other side, and did it all over again. Numerous times. Only to be interrupted by her need to give me a great big hug and kiss.  It may be overstated, but it truly is the simple things you treasure.

They simply must watch Grandma drive off in her red car. Every. Single. Time. <3

 It was a "stay-in-pyjamas-and-maul-the-cat" kind of Monday.

(18/365)

Apparently, "tickle Daddy!" means "give his beard a good, long scratch!" 

(17/365)

The post-lunch wipe down. 

(16/365)

Quiet time activities: drinking "blue juice" and colouring. Lydia's naps are a dying breed, so we're enjoying these moments as much as we can. And then onto the next adventure! 

(15/365)

Not gonna lie, I've been anxiously waiting for the day that I could do cute things with her hair. 

(14/365)

He's found the perfect perch: far enough away that he doesn't lose handfuls of fur at a time, but close enough to receive the occasional, affectionate nose-touch.

(13/365)

A busy little Lego mastermind at work.

(12/365)

Still fighting this blasted cold.  She  has all of her comfort items. "Beah", check. "Doodah", check. Fingers entwined in hair, check.

(11/365)

Judah "reading" to his siblings. And, please to be noting Lydia's obviously stylish style.

(10/365)

A tender moment between Benjamin and his chicken "little" soup. 

(9/365)

Bath time. <3 

It kind of melts my heart when Lydia has to copy Judah and go on her tummy, too. 

(8/365)

Post-nap grogginess/pick-me-up-and-squeeze-me-ness. 

(7/365)

Trying to warm up on the register, and Little Sister won't leave him alone. Typical.

(We're still fighting fevers, manufacturing snot, and hacking up our lungs over here.)

(6/365)

We're all down for the count with a mystery illness. So. Today is for a whole lotta Netfilx and a whole lotta cuddlin'.

(5/365)

Just sit down wherever you fancy.

(4/365)

Blissful silence in the back seat on the way home from a busy, wonderful week away.

(3/365)

Flight simulations with Daddy, the big kid's "nap" time.

(2/365)

When they get to see him, they soak in every minute of him that they can.

(1/365)

Breakfast, with an extra side of glee.
