2 weeks together

I survived my first week at home with two kids and no help during the day. Yay!  It actually went really well and the only rough times were when Aurora fought her naps.  Luckily she's usually pretty good and does take a nap most days--2 hour long naps lately!  So nice!  But I still haven't had much time for blogging because I'm either napping when the girls are napping, or my computer time is taken up by working on my church calling responsibilities.  So the blog gets neglected, not that I don't think about blogging :)

It was so very nice to have Darwin home with us for two weeks, and we all loved that time we had together.  We spent quite a big of time relaxing, but we were productive in a lot of ways too.  Here's some of what we did:

 Our neighbors had already claimed most of the concrete with their chalk drawings, and look what we found!

 She loves for me to trace her hands when we're coloring, but having the neighbor kids trace her body on the sidewalk was 10 times more exciting!

Prepping the garden for planting - 4.4.13
Papa gave Rori her very own rake for helping in the garden! She was in love :)
