Almost

 These days are pretty near perfect. Sure there's fighting and frustration, but there's also sweet little moments of peace and contentment if you look closely. Watching Ollie run across the kitchen bursting with excitement at the sight of his Dad first thing in the morning is a treasure. Finley followed a few seconds after, crashing into Daddy's legs and wrapping his arms tightly around them in a squeeze hug. It melted my heart to see it.

 I braved the grocery store with these three monkeys this morning. They were being so cute as we got ready to leave that I couldn't pass up a picture! 

 We spent the rest of the morning in the kitchen making monster cookies! I love that they have no flour and are jam packed with m&m's and chocolate chips. 

 I lost count of how many pans came out of the oven. It always makes a tonne! I threw half in the freezer for school lunches, knowing they wouldn't last long in the cookie jar.

 This sweet boy almost made it to his bed at nap time. Ha! After tucking Finley in for his afternoon snooze I peeked in to check Ollie and found him sleeping like this. I scooped him into bed and cozied him up with a warm blanket. He was pretty tired!

 I started a batch of artisan bread last night before bed and put it into the oven while the little boys were napping. 

It doesn't always turn out this nice looking, so it had to be documented. I love listening to it crackle as it cools on my counter! We enjoyed it with our white bean chicken chili for dinner. Yum!
