twinning with my little guy and our 5 favorite things to do together!
Thank you to Reebok Classics for partnering with me on this post. Classic Reeboks are my favorite tennis shoes because they are the most comfortable shoe right out of the box, go with anything, and last for years! This design is celebrating 30 years of iconic style from track to street! Its big fun to get to match with my little guy in such a cool way that we can both appreciate! I LOVE white kicks because they go with everything...doesn't matter what outfit you have on these shoes will work. Which make them a smart choice for kiddos and busy moms alike.

Everett and I had so much fun taking these pictures which leads me to the 2nd part of this post....
scroll to the end of the post for our 5 favorite fun mother/son activities.
Squeezing quality time in with my little guy is so important, and much more difficult than I thought it might be prior to motherhood. The first thing I do is set a timer and put my phone down and out of reach. I don't want electronics to interrupt our time and I'm guilty of unknowingly picking up my phone. 15-20 minutes seems to work well for us and our attention spans.
1. Creative drawing. Everett loves to draw trucks, but not just ordinary trucks but 25 wheels, 8 doors, trucks that are pulling a endless train of different types of trailers. Coloring books are not interesting to him or coloring in the lines, but he's all about using his imagination. I have to admit is pretty fun to draw fantasy type vehicles.
2. Legos. What kid doesn't like legos?! It can be pretty cathartic for adults too! We enjoy following the directions to build something specific or trying put something back together sister took apart.
3. Physical activities. Being active together is one of my favorite ways to spend time with each other! From swimming, tubing, walking, running, playing catch or kicking a soccer ball. Plus I count it for exercise for the day! Win. Win.
4. Truck/tractor window shopping. At the ripe age of 7, Everett now knows more than dear old Mom about farm equipment and truck models. He recites the details and idiosyncrasies of each model year better than most adults. Taking a drive around a equipment or truck dealer makes his eyes light up!
5. Board games. Everett is obsessed with the movie Cars, and he received Cars Monopoly for his birthday. It's pretty fun and simple enough sister can play too! Other games we like to play are Jenga, Operation, & slap jack.
I have learned it's not so much the activity that's important, but the undivided attention and time together that makes us happy and brings us closer!

Wow, great outfits from the two of you.
ReplyDeleteAre these Reebok sneakers comfy to wear without any socks?
Well, it certainly looks better without...
Thanks! Yes, for casual wear no socks in very comfy, and I agree looks the "coolest" looking. If I were going to be walking all day, especially on hot days I would wear socks. Which is the same thing I would do with any sneaker. Hope this helps. Audra
