Morning play time

On the weekends, Tim and I take turns getting a little extra rest in the mornings. On Saturday, Tim sleeps in and I get up with the kids and vice versa on Sunday.

In lazy Saturday fashion, we leave our pajamas on and head downstairs for some breakfast. Maggie starts asking for food almost immediately after getting out of bed. She usually wakes up telling us that she has pooped (says, "poop" and points to her diaper). About three quarters of the time she has actually pooped, the rest of the time, she just knows that it will get us out of bed! As soon as that is taken care of (or maybe even while that is being taken care of), she is generally telling us "hungy" or "num num", to let us know that she'd like to eat! On our way down stairs she starts saying "seal" for cereal or "ba" for bar (because a many mornings on the way to school they get some sort of fruit bar or Cliff bar or something).

After we finish breakfast, it's right downstairs to play with the toys that they kids hardly get to play with during the busy week! Every time it's a new adventure, but on this particular day we pretended we were animals by putting on the masks and then we decorated cupcakes. I don't love that I have to leave my children every day, but is sure does make me appreciate these early Saturday mornings! :)
