A crazy boy, a walk, a robot, and a spring day.

I want to start this post out with a photo that is just so Remy. He is really one of my favorite people ever. The child is brilliant! In this photo he has on his skeleton jammies that are like 2 sized too small, but he will not let them go. He loves the human body and these jammies are a favorite. With the jammies he has a camera, gloves, bear slippers, and a dino hoodie. Only Remy could pull this off!

This was on Friday Morning. Here he is later...playing ball with Reese.

On Saturday I took the boys for a walk. They took pictures of flowers, rocks, etc. The weather was great.

When daddy came home he helped them make a robot from a kit Remy got for Christmas from his Grandparents. He was so excited that he was shaking towards the end. Hee heee...

Sunday rolled around and daddy helped the boys tend to the rocks in the rock tumbler. It was finally time to do step 2. Word of wisdom, don't get a rock tumbler. It is so loud and annoying.

When daddy went to work we went to work on some of our "Story of the World" history. We finished up on mummies. We went back and forth on if we would mummify a chicken or an apple. And thanks to Sherri we used this site, along with books and stories.

Eli and Remy colored a page of pyramids and the sphinx.

And here we are to the current day. :) It was 75 degrees here. Perfect weather.

We got daddy off to work and then we had lunch and school outside. :) And now I see why the boys love it so much. From lunch until dinner we were outside. It was really an experience. I couldn't help but think of the hot days that will melt us and the biting insects in the days ahead. But for today, he was like the garden Adam and Eve lived in.

Even the birdie did school outside with Remy. :)

The boys BEGGED for swimming today. But the water wasn't even 55 degrees.

Signs of Spring were all around. New life is just waiting for the chance to jump out and live! I can't wait to see the trees with new leaves.

We are looking forward to the rest of the week. Daddy has off two days so we may not be around as much. Eli should finish off his core stuff in just 4 more days!

Oh I loved the jammie pic! That was so cute and had me giggling away. Your days sound wonderful. We are showing signs of spring here too! I can't wait. We took our little sunflower sprouts out of their cups and planted them in a bigger container and placed them outside. I really hope they make it. I wanna see some sunflowers in my yard.
