Lazing on a Sunday Afternoon

There isn't much to be said about our past weekend, nothing eventful with the exception of lazing. We don't seem to do this quite often enough. In fact, as I'm typing, I realize my definition is not correct. Sunday morning I had a soccer game with two forty minute halves. I had not done this since my days of youth, so that was not lazy. However, my ability to do yard work and shop at the G.A.P. for the girls may qualify.

Here is the proof of our lazing in the backyard.

Matthew was hard at work this weekend. Actually, he played plenty of online poker (shhh! I might not should tell this!) and . When he gets in work mode though, I tend to just watch and enjoy. We finally put together Laney's birthday present from Mickey and Bumpaw!

You know the general rule of thumb, with the first child you are overly paranoid, worrisome, and anxious? Well, I do this with Landry too. However, I probably would not have let Laney stick grass in her mouth, or sticks, or leaves. Landry had a great time experimenting with the wonders of the world.

Ready to Roll down her new toy...

And again Laney just kept going down.

Also, the abundance of leaves that you see. Well, they are gone. Okay, 25-30% of the leaves are bagged. Yes, I did yard work! I raked and it hurt my hands. I do not like yard work. I do not like yard work AT ALL. I could think of many more things I would rather do with my time. But it was a beautiful day and I had already had my dose of exercise. I suppose I could have worked on my blog outside.
