weekend

>> Saturday, May 21, 2011

The day started with John heading out to paddle and fish with a buddy, the big boys munching dry cereal in front of cartoons while the baby and I slept in until 8:30 (!!). 

Eli and Axel never made it fully out of their pajamas, and I sipped my coffee all day long. 

This evening we all hung out in the front yard and I marveled at how completely Axel can hold his own with these guys. 

Bye-bye, Baby. 

I'm thinking it's a good thing John's the one home full-time now... I honestly don't know if I could keep up.

A full-time job has taken working for the weekend to a whole new level. 

I am relishing these lazy, boy-crazed days.

Happy weekend, friends. I hope you're out there doing what you love with your people.

Yes, yes. Working hard all week is merely a race to the boy-filled weekend finish line for me.

My favorite picture was all of them sprawled over the lawn, entertwined like boisterous puppies. Bliss.

Clarity in the Chaos

I'm a realistic optimist who relies on raw honesty and plenty of humor to navigate the boystorm that is my life. I am mother to three and wife to one. These are my stories.
