Home Again

by flowers on October 14, 2009

After an exciting and fulfilling trip to Boston to celebrate the boys’ birthdays with family we are back home again.

Home

The boys spent the entire day in pajamas yesterday. We turned our heat on for the first time and everyone was happy to just hang out at home.

After a full day at home we were ready to venture out. Stone continued a client’s project he’s working on and we headed to Miranda’s house to play and visit (and eat yummy homemade soup) with our fabulous unschooling friends.

Sol was taken with their pet gerbils. He picked them up, played with them, kissed them and got angry with me when I suggested he give them a rest. Miranda has offered to let us borrow them, but I’m not sure I’m ready for that yet.

Gerbils

Can I nurse my two-year old, support a newborn’s head and supervise Sol holding the baby. You bet I can! (photo courtesy of Miranda)

Multi-tasiking

Koala kept saying, “Bock, bock, bock” and finally I realized he was doing his best to make chicken noises. He loved their little house.

Here Chickens!

E was happy to catch one for them and we were able to say hello up close.

Chicken

It was a gorgeous fall day and I am happy to return home to a community that is so very wise and kind.

(P.S. Check out my guest post over at BreastfeedingMomsUnite. I reviewed my favorite Bravado Nursing Tank. Melodie has a great community over there and I always appreciate the support and encouragement of a larger breastfeeding community.)

Great pictures! I love the chicken and E! It was great to see you today. Oh, and I am not sure the gerbils are ready for that yet either! ;-)

Oh I know! I felt my first resistance b/c and then tried to see if I could be open to it, but after watching I just felt like we would be that family where the dreaded “accident” happens. Maybe when they are a little older. Maybe ;-)

Miranda! And E & A! And fall colors! And ….the heats already on??? I’m SO looking forward to making our way north next *summer* to visit (and meet!) you all.

Love that first photo up there. And your multi-tasking one. Mama’s got skill. ;)
