Mother's Day

Mother's Day weekend was quite enjoyable if I do say so!  It was Ann and Sid's day to have Monte Saturday so Ann met me in town at gymnastics and held Kit while I helped Monte then took Monte home with her.  Sid bought Monte a "pool" so when I got there later that evening Monte was in heaven "swimming!" 

Ann fixed ribs and we had a wonderful relaxing evening!  Monte played in the water so long his teeth were chattering and he couldn't talk but he still didn't want to get out! After the boys were in bed we sat outside and shot bows. 

Sunday morning I ran into Mertzon and dropped little gifts off for Mom, Penny, Sara, and Gran.  Gran and Papa ending up talking Sara and I into staying for breakfast!  We were there all of 30 seconds before Monte had EVERY toy dumped out onto the floor! Kit was fascinated with Papa and the noises he kept making and would stare soo intently at his mouth trying to figure it out!

He thinks I'm funny!

See, every toy!!

That evening Gunnar and I had decided to just be home with our little family and it was PERFECT!  We sat outside and Gunnar grilled me steak and poppers!  We had a baby goat for a couple days, and still have kittens so it was a zoo!  I cleaned out the tub we used for our chicks house and filled it with water for our very own LP swimming pool! 

ummm umm good!

 

Dad gave Gunnar a brand new grill he had gotten somewhere and Gunnar was so excited to use it!  "It just started right away without a lighter!" "It's STAYING lit!!" "There's a catch pan for the grease!!" As you can tell our last grill was a bit of a disaster! hehe

I love that Gunnar caught this moment.  Seems a perfect depiction of motherhood on Mother's Day. Helping remove a sticker and proving that kisses make everything better!

ahhh our carport is soo messy!! That is the top to-do list item this week and it already is a lot better BUT it was such a great evening!  Enjoying the weather, the animals, each other, our home!

We probably put Kit BACK onto the blanket ten times before just giving up and letting him go for it!  A much needed bath was the end of our evening!

I thought I'd let him see a kitty and I think the kitty might still be bitter toward me ;)

I love our little family and the three boys I get to call my own!   Truly blessed!
