Old School Play!!!

Papa Ric helped build the box with Brian!



Brian and I talk often about our childhood days digging in the dirt. We were entertained for hours and hours. Emmi has loved digging in our flower gardens, so to finally put a stop to that her daddy finally decided to build her a sweet sandbox in the backyard.

"It may be the sweetest sandbox you have ever seen", Brian would say. It is 8x8 and has a bench surrounding the entire box. It doesn't entertain Emmi for hours yet, but she will sit in there and play for a good while. In her words....."I love it Daddy".

P.S. If your at all saying to yourself "what about the cats?" My answer. I remember as a kid coming across that random piece of cat poo and that stench of pee, but we dug it out and kept on playing. And I am still here to tell about it. I'm not too worried. That is why I call it OLD SCHOOL PLAY!!! We didn't worry much about stuff then.

Awesome sandbox!

Oh, and the 3 kid thing. . .Ah! I don't know if I am quite ready to tackle it, but we wanted number 3! It hasn't really set in yet. I haven't felt great, but definitely better then the previous 2 (other then then fatigue is way worse. . .I'm sure that has nothing to do with 2 little ones at home:) I get my US in 2 weeks (but we aren't finding out the sex).
