Today was a no school day for Cannon and those are always my favorite days. I love the slower pace of the morning and getting to spend all day with Cannon. I can’t imagine what it will be like when we need to get both kids ready and out the door to school.
It was a beautiful sunshiny day so the kids and I decided we needed to go sledding.

We met a friend and felt so renewed to enjoy the fresh air and sunshine.

Both kids loved sledding where last year Emmy wasn’t sure.

They also played on the playground and it made me think about how we are going to tackle this crazy winter season.

I really want to read this book, but I have heard that one of the main themes is that kids need to be outside every day no matter what the weather. So I think we are going to be getting more cold weather gear and getting out!

Oh and I wish I had more time to sit and read.
After playing I had to run Cannon to the pediatrician’s office. He needed to get a flu shot. He was so brave and did so well, I was very proud of him.
Then we had lunch and quiet time, we got some good cuddles in.

Later we went to Target because Cannon earned a toy.

We use a reward system for Cannon where when we catch him being good he gets a coin. When he collects enough he gets to go pick out a toy.

He picked out a Hot wheels toy with a shark, he is very excited about it. We are now literally jumping the shark.
We didn’t feel like making dinner so we grabbed a pizza and ate it while we watched part of Finding Dory.
When it was bed time Cannon picked out the book “Mother Bruce”

It’s a very cute book, I love reading to him.
