I am sure a lot of mommies are in my shoes right now for several reasons.
Freezing weather not allowing your kids to go outside
+
Tiny (not kidding) apartment with no room for little man to run & explore
+
Little man is tired of all his toys
+
Needing to nurse and have him distacted (that is the only time he gets remotely jealous)
+
Richard being gone all day (12 hours) and needing to get things aroumd the house done

Sometimes I cave and let him watch "kids TV shows" on Netflix
Don't panic. He really doesn't watch that much. Relatively hardly at all. But still, today I decided I wanted to limit the dependence on Curious George and Blues Clues as much as I could. So we had fun doing other things during Brielle's naps.
Like playing with colored puff balls,
making finger paint and him painting with the paint we made

| He loved making it "squishy" (his words) |
We also cleaned the house (he had fun spraying things with his spray bottle of water and wiping it up with a rag), had a dance party, he helped me make dinner etc. I would say project "save his brain" went well.
While Brielle was awake, they had fun loving on each other and playing together like normal.

Today was a good day. Even though I didn't get a nap, I still got a lot done. It was so nice! I re-arranged the decorations in our house, deep cleaned, played with Liam and made a yummy dinner.
Even though it was Friday the 13th, it was good.
p.s. Wondering why I am posting on my blog so much all of a sudden? With the New Year I decided I wanted to take at least 1 picture a day and blog about it. I call it "Project 365" and I explain it more here
