Rain, rain go away

Trapped inside with a toddler for multiple rainy days in a row is so not good. The Peanut really needs to get outside to run off some energy and it has just not been possible the past couple of days, nor does today look good for outside time. I'm running out of distractions in the house! We've made a fort, painted, played in soapy water, read bunches, did puzzles, played with play-dough, etc, etc, etc. I'm trying to come up with something brilliant for today but I'm drawing a blank. There's always the library but with an infant going out in a downpour is challenging and the library isn't so enjoyable when you're wet. On the plus side the garden is looking awesome; can't wait for some delicious tomatoes! Guess I'll just have to hope Pinterest can help me!

The Beginning

Apparently I'm in need of an outlet after 6 months of being a SAHM.  There will surely be ramblings, hopefully coherent, and stories of the wee ones and their antics.  The Peanut is a very active, funny 2 year old and the Squirrel is a sweet but sassy 4 month old.  Also, the word squirrel looks so wrong when written - I've had to check myself multiple times.

This week the children have been opting to sleep way less than I would prefer.  As in they both have been up at night and taking short naps during the day.  I am feeling less than coherent, but oh so pleased that they are both napping right now!  I'm giving the dual nap time another 15 minutes max since I'm trying to eat lunch and do laundry and blog and then try to nap myself.  They'll never allow it, they definitely plot against us (myself and the hubs) already.  Sibling bonding is good, right?
