Work Day

What a beautiful day it was today. The weather was gorgeous and Paul didn't have to work thanks to his 9/80 schedule. Although really he worked all day, just at home. He has been working really hard lately at getting projects done around the house before the twins are born. Some of these projects were started before Jack was born, so obviously we aren't super productive with babies in the house. Today Paul patched and re-coated the driveway (it looks really nice) and he painted up a batch of base he hopes to install tomorrow. Since Paul spent most of the day outside working, Jack spent most of the day outside playing. And I spent time scrapbooking, resting and sitting outside. Toward dinner time Jack got a little antsy for Paul to be done working so he could play with his Daddy. So Paul had the fun idea to let Jack "help" by doing a little painting of his own. It was really cute and Jack thought it was great. We just put some water in a paint tray and let him "paint" away. He even got his own piece of trim. I'm pretty sure that Paul is Jack's best friend and if things continue this way Jack will be Paul's best helper one day. I love the bottom picture here. Jack is so looking at Paul to make sure his Daddy sees what a good painter he is. And yes, he's wearing his "tractor" boots with his shorts, his choice. It was very cute.
