Dinner on the Lake

There is something about the stillness of an early morning that I enjoy, even after being up all night with a baby. I woke to the sweetest baby grins and the children talking over a pile of Lego in the living room. Oliver ended up spilling his whole cup of juice all over the floor which resulted in a sticky floor and sticky feet. The dog snuck the babies breakfast of scrambled eggs and ended up moping in the morning sun after being caught. Ollie spent all day telling me that he could do "every stuff". He is starting to articulate his words so well and is sounding so grown up lately! As the children enjoyed their slush on the deck this afternoon a few of them started fighting. Ollie quickly jumped in with a solution,"Well be a wittle NICER!" It quickly diffused the situation as we all burst into giggles at the cuteness of it all. 

We headed out to the lake for the late afternoon and got in a few good rides despite the wind.

When the boys got in their hair was spiked straight up and wind blown. They always joke that they look like Bruce Wayne when this happens and in their best Batman impersonations they say, "Hi! I'm Batman." 

We enjoyed dinner on the boat in the middle of the lake. Tuna sandwiches and a big bowl full of berries did the trick!

It's always great to be on the lake together!

The children are growing up before my eyes and I wish I could freeze time!
