lazy days

It is mid-summer.
The days are lazy. (if we let them be)

We sometimes stay at home
just hanging out
relaxing

and eating ice cream on the deck

because it can get pretty messy.


If we get too hot,

we take a dip in the little pool

out on the driveway.
Because its the only flat place on our property.


Afterward, we pick pretty pink flowers
to liven up our kitchen table.


And then we take naps.

Oh yes, did I mention Elijah graduated to a "big boy" bed at Grandma's house? The crib at home still needs to be converted, but that's a job for Daddy this weekend.
