We played this morning. The kids had fun playing with my special scrapbook scissors. Justin is cutting properly now, yeah! I am a proud mom! Dad played Memory with the kiddos. Nicole helped me a bit with my scrapbooks. We packed up to go to snow day at the Great Park. It sucked. Getting in there was crazy, we had to park in a staging area then move the car again. The snow area was tiny. Nicole did go sledding down the little hill by herself, so cute. Justin and I grabbed a “snow” ice ball and threw it at daddy. We went over to the little snow area. The kids had a great time but it got really crowded fast. It was so funny Justin was randomly throwing snowballs at people. There were so many people there no one could tell where the snow ball was coming from. His exact words “I just bonked that guy”. Dad got the great idea to break the ice ball and pretend it was snowing on the kiddos, so fun. Nicole told daddy she was going to throw a snowball at his penis, crazy girl. After the snow we went and did some crafts, the kids made snowman out of modeling clay. The kids sat in the fire truck and we finally ate lunch. Nicole was starving at lunch. Justin wasn’t starving at lunch but then he ate a huge dinner where Nikki barely ate. We ran into a few friends at the Great Park. The kids saw one of their friends with cookies/cupcakes. We gave in and got the kiddos one. We walked around a little more then as we were heading out an ambulance came for the kiddos to look at. We stayed a bit longer and Nicole was really interested in the ambulance. It sounds as though she wants to be an EMT rather than a police officer now. At home the kids wanted to drive their cars. We played outside for a bit and did some gardening too. The kids were very fighty for some reason. We decided to give them some down time and they watched Curious George. Justin wanted to watch Thomas too but Nicole didn’t. So Nicole and I played doll house. Then it was bath time. Separate baths again. Justin pretended he had a lemonade stand in the bath this time. Nicole pretended to be a dog while we gave her lots of commands. Dad raced cars with Justin for a bit and we had dinner. After dinner we played Memory. Justin is really loving that game lately, I think he played it about 5 times today. Nicole was wanting to get married. Upstairs I got my wedding dress out (it still fits) and Nicole put her Cinderella dress on. We played wedding. Dad put on a suit. Then it turned into dress up. I put on my witch costume and pretended to scare the kids. The funniest was Nicole had me put on daddy’s clothes, it was so funny. And Nicole put on one of Justin’s outfits. We were really silly tonight and we had fun. Luckily the kids went to bed pretty easily as we hyped them up a bit tonight.
