The boys went to school and had lots of fun on Thursday, and they begged to play with the hose in the evening. We had an early dinner of chicken spaghetti, salad (not for Beau), strawberries, and toast, and then we spent a LONG time spraying down the backyard. They filled up every bucket and planter, they washed all of the chairs, and they sprayed the swings and slide. At some point they figured out that spraying water into a bucket filled with bubble mixture would make the best bubble soup, and that kept their attention forever! They were super wet and grimy and happy to show it off!
Shame on Mommy for trying to take a picture of them mid-spray! When I got in really close and said, "Hey guys, look at Mommy" I got a face full of direct spray thanks to Beau! Not my best look!
We got all cleaned up, and Lincoln wanted to open the birthday gift that Jack left for him at school. It was a super fun Lego project that he got super serious about right away. He spent about an hour getting the pieces out, checking out the instructions, and beginning to build his project. Linc has completed a few small Lego projects, but this is his first larger one.
We had to pause the Lego building for baths and bedtime, but Lincoln was ready to pick it up first thing Friday morning. He couldn't even finish his super yummy donut because he was so focused! Pops texted me this picture of him completing his project still in his pjs and donut barely touched, but Lincoln was determined little guy!
It was a Nana and Pops Friday, so they went to gymnastics, to Whataburger, and worked on a super important recycle bin for Lincoln's class at school. We all met up for chicken tacos for dinner! The boys were looking super happy while getting all cleaned up in the tub, and they were talking about how they had a super fun day!
Our normal bedtime routine is bath, book, hugs, and prayer . . . Linc had the idea to have a Pajama Party instead of a book. What a great idea! They watched a video of Jump Up Wiggle Wiggle and danced like crazy, then we watched a video of the Frozen song Let It Go and sang our little hearts out. It was a fun and silly change from reading a book!
Lincoln was glad that his idea of a Pajama Party was so fun and that we got two great songs. He did lots of singing and dancing!
Beau wasn't sure what to think of this spontaneous Pajama Party, but he got into it after a bit. He said we should take turns reading books and having a party . . . sounds like a good idea!
Two little boys all cleaned up and smelling great in their pjs is the best way to end the day, and the dance party was super fun. This really is the good stuff in life . . . maybe everyone should have a dance party in their pjs once in a while!
