That was the end of our park trip. He kept trying to venture into the parking lot and the street to get closer to the truck.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>After the park, we went to the Provo Library to catch story time before heading home to grab lunch. I distributed sandwiches and granola bars in the car so we could be on time for Mary&#8217;s kindergarten drop-off.<\/p>\n<p>Then we headed home for a &#8220;nap.&#8221; Mostly I changed Ammon&#8217;s diaper a couple times and Clarissa nursed. I tried to squeeze in some crochet, but that was pretty minimal.<\/p>\n<p>At the end, Chelsea surprised us by dropping off loads of beautiful produce from her garden! She is my hero, and I want to be just like her someday.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-13315\" src=\"http:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_6515-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_6515-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_6515-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_6515-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_6515.jpg 1632w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Then we picked up the girls and headed to the Orem Library to do homework.

Abe joined us at the end, much to the kids&#8217; delight. I noticed that before Abe arrived, the kids played on the park. After Abe arrived, the kids played<em>\u00a0<\/em>on Abe.

I re-broke my toe twice in the evening and it hurts today. Ammon stepped on it after scripture study, and while I was listening to Abe talk through his work stress, I stubbed my toe on the vacuum. I was too upset to blog after that, so I just went to bed angry. It is\u00a0<em>throbbing<\/em> today, so we&#8217;re having a more laid back morning.<\/p>\n<p>I am praying Ammon will learn to love TV. Right now he and Mary are in front of\u00a0<em>Fantasia.\u00a0<\/em> I know I&#8217;m supposed to minimize screen time, but with Ammon in his current state, I want to MAXIMIZE it. Sadly, he doesn&#8217;t stay put in front of a screen, but I am crossing my fingers today and hoping against hope Fantasia keeps him planted on the couch&#8211; and out of mischief!!&#8211;while my toe sort of heals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Wednesday we packed it in.
