What a beautiful weekend! The sun was shining, the temperatures were warm and inviting...time for a trip to the mall!
We walked for 45 minutes to our local mall. Hayden skipped along beside us and Silas enjoyed the jaunt from the comfort of his stroller. It was so warm that we discarded our sweaters before we even left our street.
It was an uneventful but profitable trip. Both Hayden and I scored new shoes. He got a nice pair of Dr. Scholl's and I got a pair of Sugi's. I preferred the black and pink pair, but they weren't there in my size. :(
We had dinner at McDonalds (again, not my pick!) and had ice cream for dessert. Silas ate his in the stroller on the way home. After bathtime everyone tumbled into bed, happy and tired!
Today Val was back to work so the kids and I had the day to ourselves. I baked blueberry buttermilk muffins and an Apple Pie-in-a-Hurry, cleaned the kitchen and had a visit with our kids' nurse. Silas was on par with his development, if not a little ahead, so we were pretty pleased with that.
They have grown up so much, it's hard to believe it...Seems like just yesterday they were just babies. Now they're not even close to being babies, they're little boys.
Here's hoping tomorrow is as productive as today...and here's knowing I'll sleep well tonight!
I have never met anyone that loves his kids more than Val. He adores them. He's never too dignified to get on the floor and play with Transformers and Lego. Being a kid at heart, the boys relate to him and love him more than anything.
