Dear Summer, I love you!

We’ve had a busy week around here.  Lots of going, lots of drs appointments and swimming and fun and well, we’ve just been busy.

This happens every.single.time we swim.  He’s the best 4th kid around.

I’m okay with being busy during the summer because even though we’re busy we’re still chillin’.  Everything is on relaxed mode and taken much easier.  If we’re out late, it’s okay, we just sleep in.  No real agenda.

I just realized it’s about to be July which means only one month of summer left.  Ugh.  I like summer.  Why do kids have to be educated anyways?!?!  It can’t be that important.

Since it’s summer, when I’m up at 5am the sun is already on the rise and I get to see this kind of sky almost every morning.  When winter hits…bring on the depressing darkness.  Boo on winter.  Can you tell I’ve got issues with winter and I’m already working through them in June?

Harper is going to be a bit bummed to head back to school.  She just loves to play and hang our in her jams all day.  She likes the lazy laid back summer agenda just as much as me.  And honestly, she missed her brothers during the school year.  She loves school, but loves her boys more.

This might be happening too often.  Maybe they’ll both just be more confident in their manhood.  They do make pretty little things.  #ToWongFoo

They kill me…no…they slay me.  Slay seems more…”Hey, I’m for real.  These kids are hy-freakin’-sterical.”  Yeah, I’ll go with slay.

I think Amon loves summer too.  Actually, Amon just likes a full house.  He likes the bustle.  He likes the attention and hugs and kisses and doting.  He likes his window sill warm.

Amon also likes that I am more distracted.  Keeping up with 4 wee Kelleys VS just 1 is clearly a different game.  Amon has more open windows to get into mischief.  He is the cutest little mischievous kid ever which doesn’t help my parenting A-game.

Insert throwback Thursday photo.  Different kid, same shirt, same location slightly different mess.

And yes, his hair is getting ginormously huge.  I just can’t do it…No way…never, ever, ever cutting his hair.  Ever.

So, I love summer.  The summer easyness is making some hard parts of life a bit easier.  The mellowness is rubbing off on me.  Now, I’m off to finish up washing/drying/folding/& putting away 5 loads of laundry.  4 kids and 2 adults make for a lot of laundry.  Who knew?!?!

Happy Thursday.
