Mondays, ugh. I let the kids watch TV this morning for a bit. Then we headed out. We stopped at Target to get some birthday presents. Then we headed over to a birthday party for a kid from pre school (Arya). It was at the lagoon. The kids had a great time in the lagoon. They were loving going down the water slides. N&J pretty much played by themselves the entire time. We were there for a while and couldn’t stay much longer. The kids missed ice cream but we made it up to them tonight. We came home and the kids were driving me crazy. So I finally let up and let them use the Christmas train. Unfortunately that caused fighting then they needed Santa hats. Now I regret getting it out. I did laundry today and tried to relax a bit. I am just cranky due to this time of the month. We went out front to play. I gave them rockets to play with. That kept them occupied for a bit. Then dad came home, they ended up getting the furniture mover and car d0lly out and took it down the driveway. They wanted them hooked together which was interesting but seemed to work. They had so much fun playing outside. After dinner the kids and I went to get ice cream to make up for not having cake at the party. We brought it home so dad could join us. The kids thought it was great I had to park on the other street and walk down the greenbelt. They are re-paving our street tomorrow. So funny the little things they like. We had ice cream then headed upstairs. We played cars for a bit then read books. Lots of snuggly time tonight. I acted out Nikki’s animals with her. I am sure they will wake up early with all the noise of the street being torn up.
