The Morgan's Movements {Week 30}

We started week 30 with a sweet brother "sleepover" :) 

I tried to give Maddox some snuggles but he was not interested. Oh well! 

We played a little dress up. Astronauts...

  

Firemen...

Storm Trooper....

Monday morning Mason went to speech and then to his first day of Ocean Camp and while he was gone, our neighbor brought over these. I mean, is there a better way to start a Monday?!?

Maddox and I were buds in the mornings because Mason was gone to camp. 

Monday we hit up the grocery store. :) 

Tuesday was a good day and when I headed to work, Matt and the boys had a cookie and milk snacks. Everyone was happy about that! 

  

We made it to Wednesday! Maddox was NOT interested in pictures with me but I still tried! 

They're blurry but hey! He's smiling! 

Pure silliness! 

I tried to catch Mason at camp and the pictures weren't great but he was enjoying it so much that I've want to share for memory's sake. 

Wednesday's afternoon nap brought EPIC bedhead! 

  

Thursday morning, Mason told me "Mom, I'm making a booby trap!" 

While we waited to pick up Mason from his last day, Maddox and I enjoyed another grocery store stop. 

The wind was blowing his hair like crazy. I loved holding his hand and watching him walk like such a big boy. 

Smiling after a fun week at camp. He wanted to take his picture by the umbrellas and the cat. :) 

  

Maddox interruption! 

  

Thursday night pizza day with Daddy! 

Mason took his picture like this because "this will make Momma laugh"! 

Sleepy heads...

Love seeing these boys together. 

 

Peeked in on him using his BIG imagination! 

Saturday morning, Matt tried to give Maddox a few yogurt bites but Maddox just grabbed the whole bowl. 😂

Daddy took the boys for a walk. Maddox is fussing because Mason was annoying him. #Brothers

On the way home from the walk, Mason asked to stop in our neighbor's yard to pick up sticks. I love his heart for serving.

Conversations With Friends by Sally Rooney {A Book Review}

Oh my word.  After reading the synopsis of this book, Conversations With Friends, I thought it sounded fun to read. However, I absolutely loathed this book. I did not enjoy the way Conversations With Friends was written. There were very few quotation marks which made it hard for me to follow. 

Aside from the whole quotation mark issue, I didn't care for the story at all. It was not easy for me to follow nor was it enjoyable. 

This author is from Ireland so I do recognize that her writing style may be cultural. Regardless, I didn't like it. 

This was my least favorite read of the year thus far. Womp Womp. 

**I received this book from Blogging for Books.**

Edited to Add: here is a link for the Amazon listing so you can read more. I know this isn't my best review. I just don't have much else to say. 

Favorite Children's Books {2} Biblically Focused

Continuing on with some of our favorite books today. I'm sharing some of ours that are biblically focused. We have these books in a basket right on our dining room table and we read many of them daily. 

Say & Pray Bible: This book is great for kids about the age of Maddox. It's simplistic yet introduces some of the core bible stories like Jonah and the Whale and Noah's Ark. Each story has pictures labeled as well as including a verse as well as a prayer. 

Treasury of Bible Stories: Rhythmical Rhymes of Biblical Times: This book is hilarious!! The stories are presented well yet they are all rhyming and the pictures are comical. Mason LOVES this book! 

Our Daily Bread For Kids: This book was given to us recently for Maddox's birthday. It is a bit advanced for both of the boys but the devotionals are short enough that I can still read them to both boys while they eat. This book has a scripture along with each devotional as well as a few fun biblical facts. 

Our neighbors gave us these devotionals for Mason's 3rd birthday and we have read both of them. They are great to cover both Old and New Testament. These have great illustrations and hold Mason's attention while I read the devotional. 

  

These are some of our favorite resources right now. If you check them out, I hope you enjoy, too!
