more outdoor fun

Oh man I needed this sunshine today. I have been the biggest crabby patty to my family. I feel so worn down taking care of everyone and I feel like all I do is make a meal, feed everyone, clean up, and then repeat all day. And the squabbles and answering questions all day looooong.

I changed my work days to work all weekends for the month of April. Normally that would totally suck, but since everything fun is cancelled anyway it doesn't really make a difference. And that way Doug can work from home Monday thru Thursday while I watch the kids, we have one family day on Friday, and then I work Saturday and Sunday while Doug watches the kids and we can give our parents the month off to avoid potentially exposing them to anything. So it stinks to only have one family day, and to not see our parents, but safety first!

Pictures from last week:

Am I the only one whose child prefers to line up, or in this case stack crayons, instead of actually draw/color with them??!

My favorite icecream shop is closed, but McDonald's sundaes are a nice substitute. I think this is his first one!

He loves to look at this old book in the car, but it's not really a funny comic book so I often have to explain these more complex emotions and goings on. 

Today we finally had a sunny day, and we went for a walk to the park. 

Hopefully this sun sticks around, I know it won't, but I see things starting to bud and grow and it's a bit of joy and hope in a couple weeks of gloom and bad news! 

Something for us all to remember, there are still good things ahead!
