Last night Sebastian asked me, "Ummmmmm, Mama? Can we have for breakfast tomorrow waffles and then go to the playground and play with the swings and then have chocolate ice cream? Oh, yum yum yum yum yum." Seriously, this kid knows what he wants. Our day began with Bas and I waking up to delicious smells emanating from the kitchen. Ben surprised us with a waffles/eggs/veggies breakfast... It was only right that we continued fulfilling the requests. We figured he had the perfect recipe for a Valentine's Day celebration and obliged him + added 2 playground stops to our outing.
The smile says it all! Here Sebastian and Papa are making their way to the 1st playground:
Fluffy clouds and a clear view of the mountain sweetened the deal:
Beautiful trees in Sugarhouse Park:
Rocky Road ice cream for the boys (I had strawberry cheesecake ice cream!):
Thoroughly focused on his treat:
Chocolatey, contemplative face!
The view of the mountains from the playground around the corner from our house:
Bas fully enjoying playground #2 (I had loads of fun monkeying around with him. This playground rocks!).
We were all smiles for a couple of hours, but he did melt down when it was time to go home. Poor kid would live on the playground if we let him. We ended the day with an episode of Caillou (he is so addicted right now... no more Sesame Street or Yo Gabba Gabba. He sure is loyal to whatever show he is into at the time) & a kid favorite dinner of mac n cheese with peas and corn, so the smile has returned. Mama is all smiles, too. Couldn't have asked for a better love day than time spent with my two fave guys.
