Our New Normal

It's been awhile since I posted... I was looking at DIY wreaths the other night on my computer and boom! My laptop was instantly infected with a virus. WREATHS! UGH! Geeksquad fixed me right up for a fee of course and now I'm back with some cute Grant photos. We are adjusting well to life at home, literally. Our days are filled with comings and goings in the mornings, naps in the afternoon and planning meals in the evening. I had taken an extended hiatus from cooking while working so it feels great to be back in the kitchen and Ron sure does enjoy it. I have always been the type of person who likes to stay busy as in, extremely busy. I don't like to have a lot of time on my hands, so I'm constantly seeking out programs and activities for Grant and I to enjoy during this brief unemployment time. Here's what we've been up to:
Grant started a Mom's Morning Out Program at the local Methodist Church. This allows me a few hours on Monday to myself, it's amazing what you can get accomplished in such a short time without a toddler in tow.
Grant loves his backpack.
We go to the YMCA at least four days a week and Grant has done extremely well adjusting to that environment. After zumba on Tuesday, we both enjoy "storytime" at the local library. Grant delights in getting up to point at objects in the books he recognizes and can say.
We also sing songs, have organized activities and coloring at the end. Do you spot my little man at the bottom of this photo? He spotted these beach balls at the beginning of storytime before they pulled them out. Needless to say, Grant did not listen to one minute of the story this week, he was in the corner pointing and shouting, "Ball, Ball!"
We also enjoy many playdates with Savannah and her new little sis, Scarlett
On rainy days we visit our local bounce house, Kangarooz. Grant loves bouncing and running and this place allows him to get some much needed energy out!
Cheeeessssseee!
We also spend ALOT of time outdoors
We now have some fun things he can climb on in the backyard
and of course, there is always golf lessons with Dada
