A Day at Home in May

I started out the day taking pictures of David playing in his new firetruck with a real working hose that my Mom bought David for his birthday present. (His birthday is not until Aug. but my Mom couldn't pass up the great sale price on this "perfect for David" gift; so he got his present early this year!). Then when Rachel and David went outside to play with the firetruck and water the plants their cute exclamations of surprise at seeing the first lily of the year open was so adorable, then they were so cute working together watering the plants, one pumping and the other one using the hose, taking turns. Rachel found a lady bug and showed David and then let him hold it, he was excited but a little scared too when it started climbing from his thumb up to his wrist when he stopped being scared and said, "It's ticklely!" Mean while Julia had decided to make ginger bread cookie men. Rachel read David "The Gingerbread Man" and by the time Rachel was finished Julia had the cookies ready. I have felt so busy all the time lately, always having something I have to go do; but this last Monday was a day I was able to just stay home all day and enjoy the sweetness of my three youngest children: such a blessing.
The first video is of David telling Grammy thank you for his firetruck. The second one is of him eating his gingerbread man:)
