Bret should never answer the phone for work on the weekends. Bret had to re-build a server. This morning the kiddos just played and played. Dad brought in a ladder to check something, so the kiddos climbed. Big smiles when they got to the top. We also played trains. I took the kiddos and went to the grocery store. They were so excited to ride in the car cart but that didn’t last long. The cart has two seats up top so they both sat up there. They were so good in the store. They love helping me shop and pick out things. The box of Curious George gummy bears amused them. When we got home we had lunch. Then we played. The house was a mess so Nicole helped me clean a bit. Then we cleaned out some toys they never play with. We got drawing things out, race tracks, cars, and the little people cars. The kiddos watched TV. Shocker-Curious George. After TV dad was still working. We played outside. We played frisbee, the kids painted with water, swept, and pretended to clean my windows. Dad was finally finished. I was watering plants and the kids helped too. Then we were in the vegtable garden. There were a few carrots that were ready. The kids loved washing them off and eating them. I was proud-the first carrots I have ever grown.

We ran out and did some errands. Got a bookcase for the kids and some little toys to bring to Henry and Meghan when we go to Canada. Nicole was really into drawing on her drawing thing. She learned how to make an X.The kids played some more after dinner and we got the house all cleaned up. The kids ran around the downstairs in circles while dad took care of the baby dolls. I was making sure a DVD worked, so the kiddos watched CARS. Justin was loving it. Nicole said bad things happen in the movie, the cars crash, hit each other, and they don’t stop at the finish line. We went upstairs and the kiddos jumped on books for some silly reason. We read some books. When we left the room Nicole was looking to talk to Justin but he falls asleep so fast.
