Since the fence was finished we have been spending a significant amount of time outside
and every child should.. it's good for them.
We have developed a new morning routine in just a short amount of time.
Now, when Caroline gets up in the morning we still have a few ounces of milk,
but instead of following it with breakfast-
we now go play outside for about 30 minutes (give or take).
& since it's in the comfort of our privacy fence, we're in PJs or no clothes at all
[^Caroline of course, I'm fully clothed]
We play tee ball and we hit golf balls,
we play on the grill and make ketchup covered everything
(pretend ketchup... don't get crazy now)
we chase Ace and play with our shovels and buckets.
You name it, if we've got it- she's playing with it.
No toy gets left behind.
After playing outside, and only then, is she ready to have her breakfast
and morning dose of Disney Junior or Little Baby Bum videos.
No complaints over here, it's not a bad morning.
I even get to get some sun during this new ritual.
