Since I stay at home, our daily routine is pretty much the same be it Saturday or Wednesday, so I try to make weekend days a little bit different - a little bit special - for all of us. I have been working on getting the things that must be done - laundry, chores, paying bills, etc - completed during the week so that weekends can be more relaxing and reserved for things that get to be done - sewing, reading, sleeping-in, etc.
Like I said, I am working on it, and still haven't managed to enjoy a weekend without laundry. And grocery shopping - imagine wrangling two almost-three-year-olds and an infant into a grocery cart and then trying to fill it with groceries - it doesn't work. So, Sunday afternoons find me at the grocery store with a latte and a list and actually quite happy to be by myself buying groceries. Sigh.
Anyhow, this last weekend found us at home, for the most part, enjoying the warmth of our wood burning stove, playing with play-doh, following the Olympics, visiting with friends, sewing, watching "the lion movie" (Madagascar) multiple times, and Matt even got to shoot his bow.
My little Maser playing the piano. And not just banging and smashing the keys, but playing thoughtfully, swaying to his music. His song is called "A Different One". Bestill my little heart, I love this kid.

I love Soybean! When I open your blog page, the big image of Sawyer is first while the rest of the page loads and it was great! I really like the bird prints, I'm gonna check out the site. Thanks!
Reesie, great update! It is genuinely interesting for me to get to peek into your life and see these boys grow and change. You are very rich in love, talent, nesting and grooming children to responsible adults. Thanks for sharing the daily process!
