Sunday Afternoon

 

 

This is how yesterday afternoon went down:

-I was playing in a “fort” that I had made with Joseph.

and I started to get bored (a white sheet over chairs can only hold my interest for so long, you understand.)

Then, I started thinking about all of the things that I needed to get done around the house.

Perfect time to pass on the Joseph-baton to Brian.

But, unfortunately, he was busy doing this.

So, I started singing “Cat’s in the Cradle” by Guns and Roses until he closed his laptop. (Isn’t he so lucky to have me as a wife?)

and then I told Joseph to “Go Get Daddy!”

They moved it on out to the backyard for some home-made slippin’ and sliding.

And I was un-bored and got the house clean.  (While watching the cuteness from my air-conditioned kitchen.)

What a perfect Sunday afternoon.

how do you not overdose from all the cuteness every day?

Looks like Brian was having fun...probably a lot more fun than with the boring computer!! Cute photos, thanks for getting back to your fans, Caitlin.

Very cute and very cleaver!

It was never easy getting Brian off the computer even as a child, but it's worth the effort to see both of them having such a good time. Way to go Caitlin!

Adorable pictures! Looks like both Joseph and Daddy had a great time.

Isn't it great watching dad fill in. Of course sometimes getting dad to clean is even better. LOL...

The home made water slide was great.

Whose job is it to mow the lawn?
