A Mellow Brick Road...: A Beautiful Sunshine-Moonbeam Day

Happy 32nd Birthday Aunt Ti!!! What a beautiful day for a beautiful birthday Momma! We love you :)

This morning Mommy had plans to mow both of our yards. I called Grandmoo to see if she wanted to play with you two while I mowed, but turns out, Grandmoo mowed most of our yard on Leeds for us last night. It got too dark and she couldn't finish the back, and as a result she couldn't move this morning :( Poor Grandmoo, Mommy doesn't know why she does things like that! So, Mommy asked Daddy what he preferred to do, stay home with the two of you, or go finish mowing the back of our Leeds Street house (still for sale, ugggh). Daddy opted to mow ha/ha Mommy went outside to load the mower for Daddy, but Daddy was in rare form and pretty much all but pushed Mommy out of the way to load the mower himself. You two decided to sneak out of the house and were playing on the porch in midst of the mower chaos. After Daddy left, we all enjoyed the porch swing together and then went inside to pick up your guy's play-doh mess and get dressed.

Once Daddy returned, Daddy started mowing our yard. Mommy yelled at him to stop... we have a fun routine to get our yard mowed and he was hogging the mower, sucker! Daddy left the back for us. You two ate a bagel on the back dining table while Mommy mowed and pulled weeds. Afterwards you two played in the sandbox, golfed, did some Yoga moves on the big blow-up ball ha/ha, and played volleyball with Mommy. While we played and enjoyed the beautiful weather, Daddy made some homemade mac & cheese :) We then ate lunch outside and while eating you both again noticed that the moon was visible. You two always go nuts when you can see the moon during the day. It was a Sunshine/Moonbeam day :)

Mommy then got you both down for your naps and started in on some additional projects that Daddy came up with. Daddy joined you two for an afternoon nap while Mommy worked outside. Boy it was a perfect day, not too hot, but not too cold. Bodhi, you maybe napped for an hour, and you heard Mommy come inside to clean my paint brush and I heard your pitter patter footsteps upstairs and then down the stairs. You told Mommy that you wanted Mommy to turn your tv, but I wouldn't hear of it, I told you to go get your pants on, you are going outside with Momma. You had a big smile on your face and said, "Oooooh boy Momma!" You played for a good hour in your sandbox, but then you went moon rock hunting, and sat and watched Mommy stain our fence. You kept saying, "Ooooh Momma, dat's pretty." Mommy loves when you join Mommy for projects.

GiGi came by while we were outside. You were super excited to see GiGi and you insisted that she come up to your room to see something... the poop in your potty, YIKES! HA/HA! Jude then awakened from his nap and joined Mommy outside. GiGi helped you two ride your bikes, and chased you around the yard. She was wore out after an hour of chasing the two of you ha/ha It looked as though it was going to rain, and we felt a few rain drops, so we went inside. You two were hungry and Mommy didn't have anything to make quickly, so we ordered a cheese Pizza King pizza a couple of blocks away. While Daddy picked up the pizza, Mommy gave you two a bath. Mommy loves fresh bath babes! You two loved your pizza and watched, "Finding Nemo." Mommy loved the beginning of the movie, but had to go into the kitchen to clean up some. Daddy had enough of the two of you, especially you, Jude, once you started to pour a bottled water on the couch, Mommy had to step in and take the two of you into the kitchen with me. Daddy went to sleep and we had a party in the kitchen ha/ha We blared some Counting Crows, danced, sang, and cleaned the kitchen. You two suckered Mommy into some more chocolate milk, but then we headed upstairs to brush your teeth and tuck you into bed. Nighty night my sweet babes!

Mommy packed your stuff up for Aunt Ti's tomorrow. Mommy is working in Lafayette and you two will spend the day in Greentown with Aunt Ti :)
