give me a break...

I needed one.

A time to do nothing with Ben.

Nothing but...
Read books.
Watch too much T.V.
Watch digger videos on You Tube.
Walk the block comparing puddle depth
using a variety of methods
including falling
face first
into the deepest one you can find.

Get some vitamin D...
boy did we both need a little sunshine.
Or a lot.
If you think 4 hours out and about is a lot.

Also lost all of mama's photos,
found the photos,
reorganized the photos,
bought new shoes for the dude
ate Pho.
visited with Auntie K who came for a sleep over.

And now for the big "do nothing" finish...
Dude is potty trained.
Asking, going, accident free since Saturday.
Out and about, in the car, restaurants, etc...
Still in pull-ups for sleeping, obviously,
but big boy underwear rule at our house.
And half a week of the break left!
