Ok, so I’m sure you’re tired of hearing about it by now but that weather yesterday – killer, right?! I’m not sure how yesterday afternoon could have been any more perfect. I need to find someplace that’s 75-80 all year round, little wind and low humidity. Where, oh where, would that be, do ya know??

Daddy had a really short sale yesterday so Sawyer went with him and as soon as Wryder woke up from nap, he and I headed straight back outside.
It’s nice to have one-on-one time with each kid from time to time. Wryder’s usually going 100 miles an hour and I’m usually attempting to keep him from hurting himself, his sister or just general mischief and outside time is so nice just to let him be a boy!
He’s a bundle of energy and joy and rough-and-tumble goodness! We washed about a pound and a half of dirt off of each kid last night come bath time…usually an indication of a good day.

We’ve talked about how Wryder is moving upstairs so as part of that process, I’m getting his room all ready, just for him. I’m not real big into themey rooms (Mickey Mouse or Disney Princesses, etc.) but I caved the other day at WalMart and bought the boy a John Deere curtain.
I had been online looking and looking and looking for something I liked and hadn’t found a THING. Bleh. In the store, I wandered over to the bedding to find him a pillow case that matched his toddler bed comforter and I stumbled upon John Deere, uh, everything.
The curtain was the perfect color combo (with some good ole green thrown in) and I just couldn’t resist it. He was THRILLED! He held it in his lap for the rest of the shopping trip and proudly held it up and shouted, “TRACTOR!” to anyone who’d listen.

The dresser upstairs is his new room needed a little face lift to look a little more boyish and a little less like this-used-to-be-mom-and-dad’s. I kept the frame the same off white color but made the drawers a little funky!
I had bought some wrapping paper in the dollar section of Michael’s the last time we were in Denver and with the new John Deere curtain *ahem* it was the perfect accent piece to tie everything together.
Wrex cut the strips to size, we mod podged them on and voila – “new” dresser!
I am soooooo in love how with how it turned out and I have a little bit of dresser envy…

Little man is down for the count right now. We got a surprise visit from Aunt Deb (whom he adores) over lunch and now he’s catching some zzzzzs before he’s up and at ’em again.

Love my little man…
