Happy Father’s Day

June 20th, 2010 by melissa

This morning Justin was up at the normal time but Nikki slept in. We had to wait for her to get up before leaving to get dad donuts for dad’s day. The kids had fun picking out the donuts-it is not something we do very often. They were super excited to surprise daddy. After a sugary breakfast I was just cranky or something. We were in a hurry to get over to swim lessons this morning. The kids are doing great. It takes Justin a while to get in the water (me too). Justin was so cold but stayed in the water for a long time. The kids had fun swimming from me to dad. Nikki has absolutely no fear of the water or enough trust we will save her quickly if need be. The kids were using their kick boards a lot and Nikki was jumping in and splashing. I needed to go take a hot shower as it was cold for me too. We gave the kids showers and headed home. After lunch we ran to the grocery store as I needed stuff for dinner tonight. Nikki and I shopped a bit while dad and Justin did some errands. Nikki brought her Dopey stuffed animal with her. Then we came home and the kids made some pics for grandpa and we prepped dinner. We got ready for the Brown gang to come over. It was a nice night. Nicole loved having T here and playing with her. I wish I could have another baby as Nicole would be such an amazing big sis but it is not in my cards. Good thing she has T. We had a nice dinner then the kids performed. They did shows and were really into bopping beach balls. I did some gardening tonight while the kids had fun playing with balls in the backyard. Two balls are now in two of our neighbors backyard. Kiddos went right to sleep when we finally got upstairs. I told the kids lets surprise daddy and get ready for bed…so that worked to brush teeth and get them in their jammies quickly. I am pretty tired.
