No school today. Teacher planning. And we've been stuck home all day. First, waiting for the cable guy and then hanging out while the cable guy was here for FOUR HOURS. (And it's still not done.)
For the bulk of the morning waiting we played outside.
Like most suburban homes we don't have trees. We've landscaped the front so we have short palms there but in the back there's pretty much nothing. I say pretty much because there is one small scrub oak. And today, after living here for about a year and half, the boys discovered that this tree was good for something other than a pee target.
Yes, they pee on the tree.
But today Blue squirreled his way up into the tree. That's Kaden and Toby standing at the bottom wondering what happened to their brother...
Oh. There he is!
It took him a long time to figure it out, but finally Kaden got up there too. Then the boys asked for bananas. It was as though being in a tree brought out their inner monkeys. Whatever. I got them each a banana to snack on while in the tree.
Meanwhile Toby went back to the sand box and aquired a beard. I let him keep it for awhile even after he came inside.
These boys. So talented.
