This week we ran in a 5k with good friends (well, I ran behind the good friends. 🙂 )….
We didn’t worry about messes, instead we built train tracks….
We decided that we needed a tent & it became our “book nook.” We did story time, we went on a “bear hunt”, & we even moved the train track under the tent (and baby sister crawled herself in there too!)….
We went for a walk & gushed over how cute our newest addition to the family is….and we joked about how my new motto is “The bigger the bow, the better the mama!”….
We did tummy time in the backyard & watched big brother play in the sandbox….
We did finger painting too & made another huge mess. But, all the messes were so worth it.

I love her bows!! And sometimes the best fun is had when you ignore the messes.

And the messes are usually the best memories!

Thank you Alison! I think so too, but then again I’m biased.

Thank you! I’m loving the bows, even though I swore that she wouldn’t wear them! Typical boy mom thing to say I suppose.
How’s the running going?!
I can’t believe how big they are getting!
And that bow is adorable.

I know–they are getting big waaay too fast!
Looks like lots of fun. And yes, the bows are irresistible!! 🙂
I’m obsessed. I really, really am! 😉
I love the messes! They look like you guys had a great time. And that’s way more important than being clean, right?

Trains are WAY more fun than cleaning messes! And baby sister sure is a cutie!!
