Fenced Yard Envy......

Ok so today has been another beautiful day.....So sunny and nice...I love it....and on a day like today I totally have Fenced Yard Envy....from the girls bedroom window we can see the yards of our neighbors....its true we can people watch w/o really being seen....anyway so after nap time I got Kiara up and she was looking out her window.....she could see one of our neighbors yards.....she saw a little girl about her age playing in a raised sand box with the mom relaxing on a blanket in the sun....She ask me "Mom what she doing?" and pointed to the girl...I explained that she was playing in her backyard with her sandbox......Well Kiara then blurted out "Kiara Bear want a backyard!"....."Kiara Bear want sandbox".......I laughed and replied "So do I"....she said "Mommy being funny"....I told her we would have a fenced backyard someday and maybe a sandbox....she said "Ok Mommy"...in her usual cutie Kiara voice....So today I totally have yard envy....I so want a fenced backyard....we have a patch of grass next to a super busy road...not exactly a place for the kids to play....We do have lots of parks...but alls I can picture is me trying to take the girls and Lila, the girls running in opposite directions, not listening and me trying to chase after them...Its challenging enough when Shawn and I take the girls to the park....especially when they don't want to leave the park....which is every time we go....

We did go on our walk again today....It was so nice, and I had us go a little further so I could get a good leg work out....I think I would get a decent work out if DB didn't have to stop and potty eight times...and No, I am not exaggerating....she totally ruins my momentum....but I would feel like a horrible dog parent if I didn't take her on our walks.....I do know that I won't be taking her when I start running....which is this weekend....I know Mother's Day...I think its perfect....

So tonight was our last night eating spaghetti, it probably was one of my best batches...I make it the same way every time but it always comes out a little different....I must say the girls have been good sports, eating it over and over....usually Mikiah won't eat repeat meals.....lets just say she is not a big fan of leftovers....of course unless its blue box mac n cheese.....but you already know of her love for Mac n Cheese.......

I am off to finish watching TV....I love Grey's Anatomy.....and Ugly Betty is always good for a laugh.....
