It's Saturday!

Saturday mornings are some of my favorite times... especially when all three of us are home and we have no where to go. And with the recent snowfall, it doesn't look like we'll be going anywhere too far too soon!

Most Saturdays we attempt to sleep in... which means we sleep as late as Charlie allows us. Thus, it's really not much of a sleep-in at all. Needless to say, it is nice not to have any alarms set.

We start the morning by singing, "It's Saturday... It's Saturday...It's Saturday!" It's not a specific song, it's just a little family jingle!

We have decided to make it a tradition to make a big morning breakfast on Saturdays...  Or just make something fun for breakfast. This morning it was blueberry oatmeal pancakes... yum!

After cleaning up breakfast, we typically head to the living room for play time. Jimmy and I enjoy just sitting and watching Charlie play as we chat, read or watch cartoons together. Jimmy savors his cup of coffee while I typically just sip my juice!

It's just nice to have a morning as a family where we can all relax and enjoy one another. So I'm thankful for these Saturday mornings we get together!
