Ok, back to kid business.

The boys and I went on a little adventure this morning (that's right. church smurch). We walked to the little Pearl Street Farmer's Market.

It's a great little market. It's smaller than our normal Saturday Cherry Creek Farmer's Market. It has all the fresh goodies, but no Biscuit Bus :-(. But, as a bonus, all the fun little Pearl Street shops are open.The boys got their faces painted. Eli made Amos go first. He got a mouse.
Eli wanted an elephant (in honor of Harry), but the face painter wasn't feeling too confident in elephant drawing, so he chose from her sheet of options.
A baseball. That's random.
We had just arrived and he was already fading. But he perked up after some water and snacks.
I just love boys in stripes.
We came upon our buddies Luca, Elsa, Courtney, and Fausto! While Luca was sidewalk chalking, Eli thought he might get away with stealing his lovey monkey. No such luck.
Then we walked to Illegal Pete's for lunch (seems wrong to leave the Farmer's Market to get lunch, but we walked there, had breakfast, walked almost home, and by that point we were hungry again and it was almost noon).
Eli had an excellent sweat-hawk.
Amos scored all organic farmer's market duds because I didn't change him out of his footy pajamas before our walk and it got hot real fast. He looks so cute.
Fading again but almost home. That little thing there is a genius invention. It's a car shaped fingernail clipper. Eli let me clip his nails with it for the first time EVER without a fight.
It was quite a lovely morning. Now two boys are asleep on the floor (Amos and Eric) and one in the bed (Eli). Good Sunday.
