Messes and Dog obsession

I’m guessing Lily took these pictures to show why she’s been feeling frustrated about cleaning. She does so so much cleaning and she and I both cleaned a lot this weekend, and I’m sure her heart sank to see the below pictures on Monday:

Because Lily and I are planning to get one or two dogs in the not-to-distant future, Lily is still researching dogs like crazy and the kids are totally in a dog phase. We recently watched the secret life of pets movies (1 and 2) as a family and tonight the kids watched “Beethoven” while I caught up on work.

We know we want a dog or two, but we are definitely intimidated by the idea of even more messes!!

One other quick anecdote is that Ammon played and danced with the robot valentines box I made with/for him. It made me so happy to see him love something so much that we made together. Lily commented that she thinks he loves it so much because he loves that we didn’t it together. I love that boy!
