I Love Our Backyard





Lately Leah has had a more consistent nap schedule. This is great for planning, but has its ripple effects. One of her naps is in the afternoon, which interferes with our afternoon pool visits. When this happens we turn to the backyard for water fun.

The backyard faces east and we get afternoon shade from the house. That means Avery and Zachary can play with the water table and the sprinklers and I don't need to apply sunblock. Today they were content for more than 45 minutes, the baby got an awesome nap, and I got to relax on the lounger with a magazine.
