A Day with Madi & Carson!

Steph. called me on Monday and asked if I would be so kind to watch her kids on Tuesday cause she was in a pinch and didn't have a babysitter (did I just say "pinch"? Yep, I believe I did). So I said- sure, bring them over. It was fun to see their bright, shiny faces that morning. We had pancakes for breakfast that Madison helped me make :) Ummmm... Yummy!





After breakfast we played inside for awhile, and had a snack. Sam and Madi thought it was so funny when they were showing me their snacks! Their skills impressed me.




Carson and Max played next to each other all day, which I expected. Occasionally they would stop what they were doing and one would walk over to the other to give a kiss. They were always ready to love each other.



We headed outside to the backyard so they could get some sun. The swings were a big hit as was the dirt and dump trucks. Madi even played in the dirt with Sam, filling up the trucks and dumping out the dirt! This was really the first time that Sam & Madison have played together. They have always played next to each other not really engaging. It was fun to watch.






After Lunch Sam, Max & Carson all took a much needed nap. This gave me an opportunity to paint and play with the play dough with Madison. She is such a little artist!


This is her princess bracelet that I made for her.



After naps, we headed out side for a Popsicle. I found these great Popsicles that are so little- the perfect size for little hands. They also have gelatin in them so they are slow to melt.




I had a great day with the sly kids. These kids are so special. Madi is just so content- never complaining. She says such funny things and is incredibly creative. Carson is much more feisty but such a little cuddle bug, which is surprising because he is extremely independent. I could just hold him all day.
