8:30am {fun, but I’d rather be sleeping}

2 boys awake at the crack of dawn, breakfast cooked/served/cleaned, shade, shaving cream and a mom running out of ideas….

I recommend unscented shaving cream. All my boys love to play in it and the clean up is easy if they are in swimsuits.

Our oldest (5 going on 17) was smart enough to still be sleeping.

Evidently I didn’t give him enough to drink with his breakfast.

For those of you disgusted by the picture above – I disinfect our hose each morning after I dust, vacuum and clean windows. I also have some ocean front property in Arizona, from my front porch you can see the sea. (You’re my new best friend if you know the legend those lyrics are from.)

And clean up…how cute are those shaving cream footprints?

All that fun, yet I really wish he did THIS in the morning instead.
