Hi there! Happy Tuesday (I think?!)!
Just popping in to say hello 🙂 Anyone else feel like their house is a constant disaster during this whole thing? I feel like I cannot keep up with the “projects” that Brooke begin…and then there are the dishes. Let’s be honest, the dishwasher is the real hero in our house.
Thought I would just share some random things today. Basically, I am procrastinating unloading said dishwasher 😉
The other morning, I realized how much our fish, Zoom Zoom, really loves when the morning sunlight streams into his tank. He flutters all about looking gorgeous. I like to think that is how I look when the sunlight hits me in the morning. ha.
Last week (I think-seriously, the days just seem to roll together at this point), Ken got a new toy. Meet our new skid steer. I feel a lot of projects coming on 😉 It is also intended to move snow in the winter. Yes to an enclosed cabin and heater. Woohoo!
The melt-off has been real this past week and that has made for some squishy runs. New look for the pants? I kinda like it.
Brooke found a paint stir stick in a bag and naturally transformed it into something awesome.
We have played Chutes and Ladders about 78 times. I have lost 78 of them. Apparently I am a very terrible spinner.
Brooke has her heart set on a certain toy. I told her it is $90 so she made a chart to count down all the numbers until she gets there (by earning money doing chores). She did it all on her own. I counted that as math for the day 😉 (and yes, she did complete it on the back!)
Legos have also become a very important tool for learning. She could play with them for hours at a time!
Making sure to utilize the nice days for quality outdoor time. Her snow mound has shrunk substantially!
Ken just out “doing stuff” in the skid steer (I think he just likes to drive it).
Brooke got in trouble the other day. This was her apology note. Creative kid.
Spring in Steamboat=WIND. Like, gnarly, gross wind. Luckily, it makes it pretty fun to fly a kite. Isn’t this how most people do it?
We lucked into some warm weather (50 degrees!!) last week and I never wanted to leave the dog bed after my run. So warm!
She loves Prodigy. It is a math game where they have to do problems to go up in levels. Whatever works!
Did some Easter Egg coloring.
And played in puddles. The snowsuit and water gun clearly go well together.
Pretty excited to see some grass!!!
It was cold this morning (5 degrees-blah, I am ready for Spring!). Brooke didnt care. She decided to work on her golf game.
She got some new clothes delivered (mega sale!) and decided it was best to pair these two pieces. You do you, kid.
As far as workouts go, I have been a little unmotivated this week. Part of that is because I got in over 10 hours of biking and running last week and am tired. Part is because the weather is uninviting. And part is because my guess is the only event I am training for will most likely be cancelled. Sooooo, I am giving myself a couple of days to rest and then will hop back in. Luckily, I love to workout, so that isnt going to go anywhere, but also, I want to make sure to keep it fun. If there isn’t a specific event, I will keep mixing it up with running, riding, weights and maybe even some yoga in there!
Alright, kid is trying to drag me outside to play….she’s crazy. It’s cold.
