We've been going for walks everyday - thankful we live in a pretty big neighborhood and have been able to discover new routes and places.
We visited my mom as well as Nani and Papa from the driveway. S even made a sign to hold up. I think it was so good for the boys to see their grandparents. They had a really really challenging Monday. The entire day felt like one giant meltdown, but since then, things have gone well. There are scuffles and arguments, but I'm grateful the boys have each other during this time.
My mom came over yesterday for a "social distance" walk - she stayed outside and walked 6 feet behind us, but it was great to catch up while getting some fresh air. We ended up walking for over an hour. On the downside, Charlie still smells like a swamp after our walk - so gross!
We've done quite well with meal planning and I'm proud of us. W has surprised me with some of the things he's liked - mostaccioli, chicken tacos, and greek chicken with rice. I've made it a point to let him know that I'm trying new recipes and if he doesn't like what I make, we'll find something else for him. I think this has taken the pressure off in a way and he's discovered that he really does like different foods. A major win!
Work is challenging because I don't have the office conveniences and the boys do interrupt often. I'm just doing the best I can.
