It's hard work...

Mowing a lawn must be hard work when you're Noah's age! After Noah and I finished mowing our lawn we jumped in the shower and afterward he just looked beat. He was sitting in the bathroom wrapped in his towel in a daze and I asked him if he was O.K., he said yes, and then said "Mommy, I want to lay down." These words never come out of his mouth so I thought it would be a 15 second nap, well I was wrong! It turned into a 1 1/2 hour nap on my bathroom floor! What a sweetie!




So now that I'm talking about hard work, my poor husband worked a full day (on his day off) and then came home and cut a tree down. That's right, another tree has fallen! What is the deal? Luckily it didn't damage anything. Although Ryan wouldn't say poor me in this situation, he was itching to cut this tree down since we've moved in! Men and their tools! I'm sure he was secretly doing the grunt inside! (Tim the tool man grunt) :)

oh that is so cute...Noah I mean. I have several of my kids in the same situation. My favorite though is one of my oldest when he was 8 months. He was sitting in one of those walkers (you know before bouncy seats-yes I know I am old) and I had just got done feeding him and I turned around to get a washcloth and when I turned back around he was asleep sitting up. Those are the most priceless pics. Thanks for sharing.

Doesn't it feel great to be productive! I'm in the yard right now trimming my insane bougainvillea...ugh! It's a good thing your getting Noah to help with the yard work- never too early to start training him:)
