spring (cleaning)

Spring is in the air. Spring training, march madness, flowers, daddy's fantasy baseball league draft.  We did a little spring cleaning this saturday afternoon...spring cleaned the boys room...it's time too plus Brady has strep throat & an ear infection. Poor little guy.  He was just out of sorts all day Friday, grammie noticed he was pulling his left ear sometimes, and just wanted to be held. So to the doctors we went this morning and sure enough he was sick.  So while we were waiting for prescriptions to be filled, we took some old bread with us to feed the ducks at Chestnut Memorial Park. I didn't bring my camera. But as soon as the ducks, geese, swans saw riley walking with 2 french loaves, they started honking and following him along the fence line. They acted like they were starving.  After that we picked up the meds, and lunch and headed home.  After Brady woke up from his name in a puddle of barf - I knew it was time to get the buckets.   While I was cleaning the boys kept coming in and out of the room - riley with lots of "why" questions.  Nothing like a fresh clean room.

       

I was trying to get a picture of Riley's bed and the amount of pillows he must have on his bed. He uses 2 to lay on then we must make a cave around him before he goes to bed. When we first moved him to his big bed he didn't want to be under the covers - he just wanted his train blanket to cover him up. The same train blanket that grammie made bridget years ago. And maybe around riley's 1st birthday, Bird gave her blanket to riley because she knew he loved thomas. well that train blanket has been well loved. He still has to have it "cold" every nite.  And of course riley wanted to know "why" i was taking pictures he just had to get in the picture.  And there is a happy brady in his 3rd outfit of the day. He was happy because we got to stand on the ladder. I didn't get a picture of his bed since we were washing the linens (he also has a well loved train blanket made by Grammie). But I did get a picture of his picture and letter "B" which will get painted someday.

I will be back to update more on life in general, a recent newborn session and updates on the boys.  Right now it's time to make some brownies since Daddy is now home from his draft.  Then when the boys go to bed - it will be time for Twilight. Eddie rented movies on his way home and surprised me with this one since it just came out.  I have read 2 of the 4 books and can't wait to see Edward & Bella in real life.

happy saturday!
