thrive on adventure

I just noticed that it's been a week since my last post. It's been a fun, yet busy week. I took the boys shopping for spring clothing, I've been trying to keep up with housework and laundry, Connor had a friend sleepover, and we've been spending as much time as possible outside. The highlight of my week was the day I spent with my mom. It was an all day girls only day! It was so much fun and so nice to have an entire day to myself with no tag alongs! It did me a world of good (and I think the boys enjoyed their day sans mommy too as they spent it outside with daddy).

We've had some beautiful weather here that just had to be taken advantage of. The boys have lived outside this past week and I just looked at my pics and noticed that I didn't get one single outdoor pic all week. What in the world?


Connor had a friend sleepover on Friday night and all of the boys had so much fun playing together. Cameron said that he wished he had Coby and Cale as his little brothers. I told him to feel free to take them home with him!

After we dropped Cameron off at home, Cale had a devastated look on his face. When I asked him what was wrong, his lip started quivering and tears rolled down his cheeks. He said, "I'm so sad." It was so sweet and not like Cale at all to cry about someone leaving.

On another note, after church last night we went to eat at Panda Express. Cale wanted me to read his fortune cookie. I read what it said (which was Follow the advice of your heart) and he told me "no, it actually says I thrive on adventure!" Where does he come up with this stuff? It was funny to hear that out of our just turned three year olds mouth. However, I can can honestly say that if any of our kids thrive on adventure, it would certainly be Cale!

This morning Cale was eating a powdered donut that was leftover after Connor's sleepover. We don't usually have powdered donuts in our house unless we are having a sleepover or a special occasion because I love them and cannot stay out of them! Not good when you are trying to eat somewhat healthily. Anyway, Cale said "mmmmm...that is so good. That is soooo good for your body!" And here I've been trying to stay out of them!
