Mejias Family Quarantine

Miguel and I almost never write about ourselves. Today, we thought we’d take the time to show a little bit of what’s been going on in our home during this stay at home order.

We have two little boys. Lucas, who is almost four, and Jonah, who is two. Taking care of two toddlers at home all of the time has been quite the daunting task, but we are making it work with lots of new activities for the kiddos. I think their favorite so far has been baking banana muffins. Both of these boys are OBSESSED with bananas, so I knew it would be the perfect baked good to make with them!

The muffins were a hit! Of course, both the boys inherited my sweet tooth. The often ask for cake.

While we may not have been able to go anywhere for Easter, I still took the opportunity to dress the boys up. We did a fun egg hunt in our backyard, and the boys ate way too much candy.

Another activity they loved was chalk art on the driveway. I remember being obsessed with sidewalk chalk when I was a kid, so it was a blast to see my boys enjoy it as much as I used to. Not gonna lie, I totally spent a ton of time playing with it too!

But my favorite times of all have been the quiet times. Miguel reading to them before bed. Us cuddled on the couch watching a movie. Lucas and Jonah playing nicely together for once. Those are the memories I’ll carry always.
