The best

The other night we were laying in bed watching a movie - and can I just say that a full sized bed doesn't leave a lot of room for two adults, a 7 year old and various animals, I'm not sure where baby girl is going to fit when she gets here! - and I thought to myself "This is one of my favorite times of day".  And then I realized I say that about 10 times a day.  :)  So I thought I would share some of my favorite times of day with you.

-  Davie and Eduardo have been working on their English.  I love listening to them talking along with the teacher on their video.  They are so cute!



Eduardo working on his English while on vacation - no break for him!

-  I love listening to Davie and Eduardo in the mornings when they sing together.  They'll be downstairs making breakfast and Davie will sing and Eduardo joins in.  I love it. 

-  I love hanging out on the back porch, me in the hammock and Davie and Eduardo and Bella just sitting around (one day maybe we'll have more furniture out there :)).  Davie and Eduardo will be sharing an orange like fruit that they just picked from a tree.  It's very relaxing and peaceful.

-  The other day Davie, Eduardo and Bella left the house to pick avocados.  I stayed and cleaned up the kitchen and put the clean clothes away.  I loved it - it felt very domestic and homey and I love that we live in a place where we're able to pick fruit from trees that grow 20 feet from the house.

-  I love making dinner with Davie helping and Eduardo hanging around talking with us.  The other day Eduardo told me in English "We are a family".  I loved it. 

I will say, it's not always "best" moments.  :)  For example, Eduardo is currently in his room watching a movie on the tablet because he doesn't want to be with Davie and I - he's being a little grumpy today!  He's already had one crying fit and another whining meltdown.  Living with a seven-year-old is fun!  But that's life, right?  And that's why I love that there are so many moments that are my favorites.  And I'll keep noting them when they come - to give me something to remember when the meltdowns / fights happen!  :)
