Rainy day activities



Here's what we have been up to during all these rainy days... The boys are really into having tea and cookies in the afternoons. Its a comforting treat, even when its still a bit hot outside for my Seattle blood. They are eating some delicious gluten-soy-dairy-egg free banana chocolate chip muffins. Jake is not so crazy about the alternative grain baking, but I'm determined to get them more accustomed to it. Not that I would have picked gluten free baking as a top choice for ways to use my free time and money. But it really helps little Sam, AND its pretty healthy, so lets all make the best of it!






Homemade stilts. My husband likes to give me a hard time about saving lots of empty containers, its a genetic trait passed down from my father for sure. But these here containers have provided hours of free entertainment!







The boys thought the washer and dryer would work perfectly as deep sea submersibles. They came up with this all on their own.








Last but not least, poor little Sam has been struggling with a high fever for several days. His favorite comfort has been to snuggle with Daddy for hours on end. Jake and Ben, being the compassionate big brothers that they are, had very pure intentions when they tried to help snuggle Sam too. Here is the result... I love the expression on Sam's face- it says it all!
