Rainy Days and Playdough





I was really bummed when I woke up this morning to the sound of rain. Now in general I love the rain. But with 3 little ones, not so much... I really wanted to get out the backyard pool again today for them and let them run their energy out! But that didn't happen. Our morning was a typical morning until Jack went all bipolar on me. We were having breakfast and he was telling me about his cousin's birthday party and then out of no where he starts sobbing. It was SO weird. I couldn't calm him down for the life of me. Eventually I put him in bed and he fell asleep. I wanted to let him sleep for a long time but then our whole day would have been out of whack so I let him sleep for 30 min. And after he woke up he was totally fine. I guess too much birthday excitement for him last night.

We then decided on some playdough time. I love playdough, and I really love the smell of it. I think it brings back memories of being little :0) Playdough is great because it really doesn't make that much a mess, at least not with my kids. And they played HAPPILY for almost an hour and a half! Bliss. We don't do playdough stuff very much so they still get excited when we get to do it. They played in the basement for awhile until lunch and now the house is finally peaceful. Time for my nap too I think!
