They have recently gotten into coloring. Which I'm okay with!! I don't mind them sitting at the table for a few minutes at a time and give me a break. We have been doing lots of fun things this summer...like the splash pad, playgrounds, we have a new little play area in our backyard that is sticker free, playing with our neighbor Maxx who is 7 months younger, and other random fun.
Keith switched the kids playroom and bedroom....it has been interesting. I can't decide if I like it or not. The kids have been helping a lot more around the house. With what?
-They put their shoes away
-Laundry (they put it in the dryer and washer for me and starting to "help" fold)
-Put their dishes in the sink
-Cleaning up their spot at the table (They now sit in the adult seats...not more high chairs!)
-Helping empty the dishwasher
-Cleaning up their toys
-"Making" their bed
- Putting their dirty clothes in the hamper
Yes I am putting these kids to work!! In August I am going to start a chore chart because they fight over doing different things (laundry, dishes, feeding the dog and cat)
Ashton has become a big boy. He will dress and undress himself and won't let you help. I'm okay with that. He has also become our best picking up the toys helper.
Keegan has become more insistent with things he wants...even if it makes no sense and when he doesn't get it...we hear about it....loudly.
Presley has also become very picky about what she wears...I pick something out and she says "NO!" and then proceeds to tell me which outfit she wants to wear. Sometimes she gets her way sometimes she doesn't
Ok here are a few recent pictures thank you to Monica Smart
