Sick Day

I love having these random sick days with you. I hate that you are sick but it is so fun getting to snuggle you and watch movies all day. This morning you woke up and came straight to my bed and we watched Jurassic World, Fallen Kingdom together. You've already seen it but I had not yet. It was so funny each time I cringed or felt anxious you would say, "no mom it's fine _____" then spoil the part for me. I never corrected you because I loved it. Through the whole movie you were trying to calm my nerves, but I also saw how you strategically stood up and and went to the bathroom or got some water when the more scarier parts of the movie happened. Love you my sweet and sensitive boy.

Fears

She does not like things that move and talk. We had a Mickey that didn't make the cut, even when n the closet she was afraid it would get out. This talking elephant has also haunted her dreams, but today I found her laying like this pushing his button and giggling. <3

Makeup with Friends

A little before bed makeup party with friends.

Midwest Fall

 On Tuesday it was 90 degrees and we were all wondering when it was going to turn to fall. On Friday it snowed.... snowed. Huge flakes and it lasted about 30 minutes. These two loved it, I kind of wanted to go cry in a corner somewhere. But I mustered up the strength to act so excited. They ate their dinner while looking out the window and they kept screaming "snow". I don't know why in the midwest we even answer fall when someone says "what is your favorite season". Everyone always says, "oh I love fall". Why? Why do we love fall. We don't even get a fall. If we do it lasts about 1 week.

Wildlife

 She loves to sit here and watch the ducks and geese fly by in the evenings before bed. Our home is amazing for wildlife here. We have 3 herons right now, probably about 25 ducks, and well over 100 geese. She freezes when she hears the geese start talking and runs to the windows and screams "geeeessseee", because she knows they are all going to start flying past.
