« My favorite kind of gift for kids | Main | Now they've been worn! »

Valentine's Day

I know I've mentioned how busy I am. It probably gets old. But I'll say it again. OH MY I'M BUSY! Sure, the kids keep me busy, but my husband is also on week 3 of not being able to walk or drive. So that's fun for everyone. The kind of fun that's no fun at all. I'm spending a good portion of my day driving people to and from school and work. Then of course there is all the feeding, rocking and cleaning. Have I mentioned the cleaning? Whoa nelly. And let's not forget the laundry. I currently have about 4 loads to fold. When I find a spare moment. Possibly next week.

Well yesterday the house was semi clean so rather than let my blood pressure rise while watching the little tornadoes mess it up I took them outside for the day. The thing I love about our neighborhood is that there are parks and playgrounds a plenty. Good ones too. Our neighbors have backyard swing sets but I can't imagine why we'd possibly want one. We spend a lot of time at the perfectly lovely park a block and a half away from our house. It is beautifully shaded so on cooler days we keep on walking. There are 3 or 4 other playgrounds within a half a mile so it's an easy jaunt for everyone.

Yesterday we hit up this one.

(seriously, who has time to take off a helmet when there are monkey bars to be conquered)

Baby was doing this in the ergo while the girls played.

Then we picked up my husband for a totally romantic dinner for 6 at In-N-Out. Oh yeah.

Photo
(see all those dishes I didn't have to wash? PERFECT! And yes, there is a dissenter who does not like cheeseburgers so she had a taco from that taco place next door)

So, all in all, it was a great Valentine's Day. How was yours?

P.S. I'll be doing another review from CSN Stores. Whenever I figure out what I'll be getting this time. Any suggestions for outdoor toys?
