It's technically the last week of "school" and we are over 2 months into this very weird time. Things are starting to feel a little more normal this week, so I'm hopeful that we can cautiously ease back into things.
Here are some more scenes from quarantine...
backyard haircuts
a donut drop off from friends
a family puzzle
a few preschool zoom meetings (What a weird life!)
checking out the cute baby ducks
a pizza picnic in the truck and watching the Blue Angels fly overhead
dance parties
A sleepover! (boys to Mumsie and Popsie's house; Georgia Kate to Perry's house)
"adopting" a KHS senior in our neighborhood
backyard fun
baking
exploring new walking trails
ice cream!
Mother's Day
smores
dinner poolside
a socially distant driveway visit to meet baby Annabelle
facepainting
a bag of 200 dum-dums to use for all forms of bribery
chick-fil-a picnic
a virtual birthday party (There's a first for everything!)
walking the neighborhood lake
a stop at the neighborhood snow cone truck
washing the car
We "raised" tadpoles! This is definitely a highlight of quarantine for the kids. We had about 30 tadpoles and kept them for close to a month. During that time we were able to watch 5 of them go from tadpole, to froglet, to tiny frog! We recently released them all back into the pond, but it was a fun experience!
and SO. MUCH. WRESTLING.
A few common themes:
lots of cousin time
lots of sugary treats
the kids wearing the same clothes on repeat
This is certainly a time that we will never forget! I'm thankful for the simplicity of life over the last couple of months and excited, but also a little anxious, about things starting to get back to "normal".
Very familiar scenes- from the sugar, to the cousin time, to the wrestling!!
