On a good summer day of being a mom to 3 boys, this is what we did.
First, I did not rush us out of the house in the morning. Vincent and Tyler watched a hour of television while Crosby took a morning nap. I got our dinner into the crock pot, cleaned up the kitchen, and packed us a lunch for our morning outing.
Vincent got us free admission into the Burke Museum at UW by reading 10 books earlier this summer. He's been asking to go, and today was the day!
After the museum, we came home for a little quiet time. It took some rallying, and a little bribe of a possible ice cream treat, but we made it out for an afternoon outing as well. To the wading pool!
Crosby discovered grass.
And, tried to steal the pretzels.
And, tonight, at dinner, Tyler asked to say grace, or as he calls it, "prayer." He was thankful for the delicious looking dinner, and for the wonderful day with two activities. Very, very proud mom moment.
