Monday

It’s Monday, and a trip to Starbucks is needed. Austin had XC practice at 7am and it’s chilly! Feels like Fall.

The weather was awesome this weekend so we hid all laptops and declared it an outside only weekend.

There were grumbles at first but soon they got into it.

Well the girly always prefers outside, but the middle boys are lazy.

This swing gets a lot of use. We left our playset in Chapel Hill and I’m not sure we will replace it- this swing is way more fun.

Sometimes blurry pictures are worth posting.

We make a lot of pretend soup

We made a final decision about our house.

We are going to keep it a one story. We are waiting on the plans from our architect.

I’m so excited. I get to keep all my wide plank hand scraped floors throughout, true divided light windows, tons of french doors, and hopefully the pool will go in this year as well.

Plus I really have grown to love a one-story house. With a big front porch. And big back porches. And of course the basement where stinky boys can go.

We will total out at around 4500 sq ft, not including basement. So really about the size of the Chapel Hill house- it had no basement. I am hoping to get a studio over the garage, but that’s last on my wish list.

Blake gets his bandage changed today and a check-up to see how he is healing. I know he anxious to get a smaller (hopefully) bandage. This one is starting to itch.

Then tomorrow he gets braces. Poor dude.

Cole has to get them in a couple months. His teeth are so messed up on the bottom

Ok, time to get this day started!

Happy Monday
