~A Week of Sun Brings on the Fun~

Highlights From the Week:
Monday
-waking up to the chirping of birds and sun shining through the windows
-Kids had amazing attitudes through school work and chores
-Watching Travis on the trampoline with Lily and Avery (we didn't get it up last year)
-sneaking out on a quick run
-Aaron's bedtime surprise of cleaning the upstairs! 
-Carrying both my boys to their beds while they pretended to be asleep/snuggled extra tight

Tuesday
-Finding out my dear cousin just had her second child pass away :(
- Discovering Disney's new sing-a-long that they released during this quarantine time 
-Snuck out on another short run and got a better time
-Having Avery fall asleep against my chest at bedtime, sucking away on her fingers
-Finally got some quality time with Travis (which almost never happens now that he's running COVID hours) 
-Both boys insisted on being able to help clean up the house and put the girls to bed before bedtime so they could have me come downstairs and snuggle them for a show; I showed them Sabrina the Teenage Witch and they fell in love~ 

Wednesday 
-Most HEAVENLY weather of the season thus far... 
-Kneeled down in some Nala poop, as well as got it all over my shoes... long story=dumb dog
-Having the boys "Briar Rabbit" Addie in order to keep her off the tramp! "Addie whatever you do DON'T go help mom brush the dog..." and then she'd coming running back to help. 
-Maddix being so responsible and fixing the kids lunch and all of them behaving while I took the puppy to the vet. 
-A quick trip to HyVee with Travis; a mini date
-Travis took the boys mountain biking to Lime Creek
-Talking to my best friend the entire time I went for a run
-Helping Aaron try out his rollerblades for the first time (he's been hesitant to try them and be no good at it)
-Snuggled the boys for TWO episodes of Sabrina before bed

Thursday
-Watching all the kids get carried away on their rainbow art projects the school sent to us
-Finally worked my run time back to an 8:01 avg pace! 
-Listening to the boys be so responsible and fun with the girls on the trampoline for a solid 20 mins
-Seeing Maddix light up to talk with a few different friends on the iPad for the first time in 8 weeks! 
-Both the boys got to enjoy having Gpa Vaughn call to read his book (and her the treats he sends) before bedtime
-Snuggling Avery on the front porch swing for a good 30mins before life came calling to us to get back at it. I love that baby so so much! 

Friday 
-FINALLY had a speedy checker while grocery shopping, AND there wasn't any line at check out! 
-Addie's movie night was Pocahontas, and they had popcorn

Saturday 
-Travis took the boys on a biking adventure to Ingawanas for the afternoon
-I took the girls and the dogs for a walk then we played outside
-CLEANED and fought back the house... but in silence since both the girls crossed over on naps and the boys were actually not at the house; I thoroughly enjoyed those hours of cleaning by myself! 
-Travis's co-worker came over with her daughter and gave Travis a haircut
-Travis and I had a little date with late night ice cream and fell asleep through our movie

Sunday
