The second week of summer break was long.
We still haven’t figured out the right routine for us and there were a few break-downs.
Both by children and adults.
But we tried to find a happy spot in each day.
June 9: Reading the Sunday ads in the only place his brother can’t bother him.
June 10: sweet little moments on bath night.
June 11: some time to read during nap.
June 12: Play Doh on yet another rainy day.
June 13: Getting out of the house and being good for errands = donut reward.
June 14: The boys make me a lunch of wieners.
June 15: Meeting the new guy.
Even though we are still trying to figure stuff out, we managed to have fun.
We had a playdate with fun neighbors,
made lemon cookies and homemade ice cream,
we held a new baby and played with old friends,
we read books,
we played cards and ate part of a 5-pound Hershey bar,
and we laughed a lot.
So even though patience was lost and frustrations festered,
it was a good week.
About Katie Sluiter
Why, oh why would any play food set have that many wieners??? That seriously cracked me up!!
listen, that wasn’t even ALL the wieners. It’s a total wiener party up in here.
Wiener lunch made me laugh!
And nekkid toddler with cleverly (? or !) placed ladle – love.
Have a great week ahead!
Wiener lunch was totally ridiculous. We had even MORE wieners than that. I had to stop Eddie at 8 claiming I could not possible ingest that many wieners–pretend or not!
And yes, the nudey buns running to give daddy a kiss while wielding a random ladle? So cute.
At least your lunch looks a little healthier than the “lunches” my kids have brought me.
I love donut shop donuts… they’re so delicious! Much better than the ones from the big stores.
As long as it was good in the end, it’s all worth it
The kids like to bring us plastic lunch all the time too, but I think we’ve lost most of our wieners.
