Animal Farm

We love Animals. We love your school. We love summer.

So, over the summer, for one hot week, the Weinsteins volunteered to go up to White Rock Montessori to let the chickens stretch their legs, feed the goats, water the ducks and vegetables, collect any eggs, and have a meltingly good time in the summer sun together as a family.

The results were epic.

We were running around like chickens with our heads still on...with actual chickens!

The ducks wouldn't get out of the chicken coup. The chickens go into their food can and we couldn't get them out. The baby chicks wandered off and we were playing hide and seek with them. The goats- Sally and Isis- were eating everything.

We gathered eggs, we shepherded the flock, we took care of your school, and we made it look good!

Disclosure. I was only able to do this with you guys for two days. You and Mommy did it for 5, I think! I'm so proud! Maybe you'll be farmers when you grow up!

Weekend Warrior

Aidan, we had ourselves a little 3 day weekend (thanks, US Presidents for doing something to get us a day in mid-February off of work!)

But, given the amount of things we saw, games we played, fun we had (and how well we slept), it felt like a 10 day weekend!

And you, my son, were an energetic ball of amazingness. You jumped, you ran, you scooted, you petted, you splashed, you played...in short, you were a weekend warrior!

You and your new friend, Red Balloon, went to Home Depot with me, and then the playground.

We took a hike around White Rock Lake, and fed the birds (you continued your trend of eating most of the bread for the birds, though..but you did feed a few fowl friends).

You watched a little movie and wrestled a lot with your friend, Brady.

Even Uncle Jeremy, me and Uncle BJ got in on the wrestling too.

We were super stars at Target:

Pirates at home and the park (pirates ARRRRR your new favorite thing, by the way. You  were telling us the whole weekend "I'm a Pirate!" "I'm a Captain!" "Yo ho ho mateys!"):

You loved on and played with your sister, who has started to play back! (She even grabbed your hair, much to your dismay!)

You played downstairs:

                            

Upstairs:

Outside in pajamas:

And outside in water:

We rocked the zoo:

We rocked some picnics:

And Rocked out in general!

You wore wet clothes, dry clothes, pirate costumes, witch costumes, pajamas with sneakers and pink sunglasses.

But most importantly, you wore us all out!

But...it was in a really, really good way. And, we can't wait to battle another weekend with you as soon as possible, you Weekend Warrior!
