…and not much to write about. But I took some pics and figured I could write something about them, and I am sure someday when I’ve forgotten about this post, it will be a sweet thing to be reminded of.

Yesterday I took my two older boys swimming. I do not own a swimsuit right now, so I sat on the sidelines. But they had fun anyway and it was a blast for me to just sit there and watch them splash and try to do cannonballs – they practically step off the edge and barely grab a knee or two before they hit the water! Its adorable. I hadn’t realized how EASY it is to have only a 6 and 3 year old. My gosh. I could actually sit and watch…no chasing or yelling or wondering why the heck I chose to do this!

And this is what I did:

No really. I sat and watched (and of course clapped and laughed and took pictures) and dug through some of my old Martha Stewart Kids and Martha Stewart Baby magazines for some new project ideas and inspiration. It was bliss.

Today’s funny pic is of Rocket (my eldest) as I stepped outside to see what he was doing, I was a little taken back by what looked like a modern Tom Sawyer running away. So I ran in to get my camera and had him pose again for the “candid” shot.
