Here are some things we've done together over the last two weeks, with varying degrees of success.
Bath in a clear bucket with bubbles = A giggly happy success!
Eating a lemon and reading books under the lemon tree = completely lovely
Shower with mama in the morning = enough time for me to wash, blow-dry hair, put some makeup on and get dressed = WIN!
Sticking pipe cleaners through a colander = 5 mins = Not so great but I felt all righteous and creative so totally worth it
Pulling dozens off pegs of self = 5 mins = meh but pretty cute
Trips to the park = always a success especially if there is a cafe nearby
Trip to the beach = surprisingly...a big fail! Don't let the lovely nostalgia Hipstamatic filter fool you. Almost an hour away, no shade, grumpy toddler who hates his hands being sandy, gritty sammies, a short sleep in the stroller...not quite the glorious montage of events I had visualised.
Painting = I so wish this was as lovely as it looks. Actually it was. For about 2 minutes until you noticed your hands were mucky and started freaking out. Fail.
Jars with dried beans, flour, popcorn, oats, spoons and muffin tray = 20+ mins of total concentrated joy = YAY!
More ideas for filling in these glorious but sometimes relentless Groundhog-ish days?
