A Day With My Bean

I'm feeling sad because summer is almost over and soon I won't be able to spend all day with my little Bean... So I took advantage of today and REALLY enjoyed my day with Arabella today.  We went to the library and played and read books in the cozy nook... then we went to the grocery store where Arabella got to push her own cart... thanks to HyVee for getting these cool new carts for kids - she LOVED it and we got through the store without any fuss!  
After the store, we came home and went for a walk... a short lived walk because it was a heat index of 105... ugh.  I prefer to walk, not swim through the air.   We had a nap together (boy am I going to miss naps when school starts up... do ya think my fifth graders would support the idea of naptime after recess???) and then went outside to do sidewalk chalk.  Here are some of her creations... 

This is (from left to right) Daddy wearing a hat, Mommy (wearing a very short skirt), Arabella wearing her crown, a man-eating snake (that is allergic to children according to AB), and a butterfly lady bug.  I absolutely love how creative she is... she is such an artist!

"Mommy, what should I draw next?"  "Well, could you please draw me a rainbow?"  "Sure, but all rainbows have clouds because they only happen after it rains and rain comes from clouds, so you'll have to have clouds if you want a rainbow."
