Through the Eyes of a Mother

a little bit of this and a little bit of that

Great way

To cool off. A pool and a freeze… Oh what I wouldn’t give to be a kid again.

Beautiful

I have made a goal to at least make sure I post a minimum of 1 photo per day for the month of August. So I may not be able to take anymore for the rest of the day since I am going to the water park with the kids and the phone and water don’t mix well but we were crossing the bridge and the lake looked so beautiful and inviting 🙂

To bad I dislike the beach. Lol.

Doesn’t that just look amazing, especially on a hot day like today.

Well gotta run the water park awaits 🙂

Escape artist…

Little miss is crazy! I had to tie the gate closed because she figured out how to open it, and it isn’t an easy latch either. Ugh she is driving me crazy.

We also put up the fence so she wouldn’t be able to get out but now I’m not so sure it even matters.

I guess we didn’t build it high enough. She can’t quite get over it but I’m assuming in the next week or so she will be able to scale it like a pro. Lol

Night night… Master chef time

Squatter in the shed

Without us knowing it we had someone move into our shed. I say someone when really it wasn’t a person but a rather large insect. We noticed it the day before yesterday when Mr. B went into the shed and found this gigantic web, the spider was hiding so we had to wait until it came out to truly see the hideous thing that made the web.

He couldn’t wait any longer so he found a beetle and sacrificed its life just so he could see it and then in turn kill it.

It wasn’t one of the biggest spiders I have ever seen but it was still to big for my liking 😦 yuck.

Anyways of course like the weirdo I am I still had to take a picture 🙂 so here it is for your viewing pleasure.

Unwind… What’s that

I just really need time to myself, time to relax and unwind… Clearly with 4 children that happens almost never. Even as we sit outside I can’t quite relax as I am constantly on my guard making sure baby k doesn’t eat something she shouldn’t or little miss doesn’t escape from the yard, but on evenings when the grass is green and the sky is clear and blue, I can feel the stress of the day slowly ease away.

About 2.5 more hours and I can really be kid free as they sleep in their beds 🙂

Storm

Is rolling in.

I live how the grey(gray?) just looks like its swallowing the blue up. And it did rain and probably still will. There was lightning and thunder 🙂 the kids love it.

Evening, it was nice and cool and with baby k crawling she was loving being able to explore the back yard 🙂
