How can it be Thursday already?
Time just needs to stop for a bit so I can catch up with, well everything.
This is pretty much a review of the past week, the weeks run into the weekends when you have a wee one and you kind of just lose track of time. I remember this happening with Bennett so I know I'll get my sense of time back eventually.
Anyways...
Somehow I had an allergic reaction in my eye which caused pink eye. I wasn't contageous but it hurt like none other and I sure looked awesome/swollen/red. My vision is still a tad bit blurry but other than that it has healed nicely.
I made this strawberry rhubarb crumble with rhubarb from our backyard...it was so good.
I'm pretty sure I had the world's largest rhubarb leaf:
finished product:
(Chris isn't a fan of rhubarb so I've slowly been eating it up by mixing it into my oatmeal in the mornings)
(I think he's missing out)
we snuggled:
we went to our favorite pizza place American Dream:
(they have the best pizza/breadsticks ever)
Buckley started smiling:
(he's the sweetest little thing)
and we had more snuggles:
yesterday Kira and I met up at Salt and Straw.
I actually didn't get ice cream for once, but I did have an amazing mocha plus B and I split a couple of their super tasty house-made pastries:
(he was more interested in watching the cars drive by)
Buckley slept the whole time:
(I forgot how nice it was to take a kid out without them being crazy/toddler-like)
B had to have a piece of candy that he saw when I was paying,
strategically placed right in front of his face.
I wasn't willing to put up a fight:
at least he shared it with Pearl:
(sorry Kira)
Yesterday we hung out in our (very overgrown) backyard and Bennett decided to have a conversation with the bees. He's never been stung so clearly, he didn't understand when I told him to be careful.
This is him yelling "hey bugs you hungry? Talk to me!":
and we also got a sneak peek into the amazing pictures that Abi took a couple weeks back:
(amazing might be an understatement for Abi)
She captured his sweetness perfectly.
I can't wait to show you guys the rest!
It's finally naptime for all of us...
Happy Thursday/Weekend Friends!
I'm pretty sure Pearl will love Bennett forever :)
I love your family updates!!! Oh, and I will need to get your numero anoche in order to bring you a little din-din.
Love, Anna
Haha...I love the bee conversation! Very similar conversation went down with the zebras this weekend.."Zebra, come over here! I wanna see you!"
