We have had just a quiet weekend. Unfortunately dad’s back isn’t better yet so he has been home bound (poor guy). It has been hot. I ended up taking the kiddos swimming. The pool was a bit cold but we had a great time. Thank goodness for the warm outdoor showers. After I let them go over to the park. For some reason we rarely get over to the Meadow wood park. The kids had so much fun. They met a little girl who played with J&N. They all played freeze tag and were running and running. There was a cool spinny thing that the kids hung from and spun. When we got home we made dinner. My steak didn’t come out so good, the garlic bread saved the dinner. Nikki was asking to go for a walk as a pretend dog. After dinner we ran into Zoe the dog and family. Then we walked to Yogurtland. I held two leashes and pretended to walk my dogs. A little embarrassing but the kids had fun. I need to get back on my diet sometime soon but that frozen yogurt was really good.
Sunday morning Justin came into our bed. He wanted to sleep with no diaper. I feel bad because it is not his fault, he is a deep sleeper plus a boy. I just need to find a better way to do his bed so I don’t have to keep washing it. I needed some stuff so the kids and I ran to Target. We ended up buying a glittery green skeleton. I can’t wait to decorate for Halloween. We played all day. We did water balloons, did puzzle, potato heads, cars, we went from one thing to another. Finally we decided to watch a movie, Alvin and Chipmunks Adventure or something like that. The kids loved it. It was more playing after the movie. Justin got the Geotrax out and the kids played together for a bit. The kids have been asking for popsicles that we make. So we put apple and orange juice in the freezer. Then I wanted to wash my car. However, I felt bad for dad with his back that we washed his car first. The kids were so excited to surprise daddy with his car looking all clean. It was getting dark but I chanced washing my car. Tomorrow I will notice all the spots I missed. The kids were wanting to go in the car for a ride without car seats. Since they helped with the cars I took them around the neighborhood. We noticed people are starting to put up their Halloween decorations, yeah! So we grabbed daddy and walked over to them. At least we got dad out for a bit. The kids decided to have a picnic on the stairs. They were having such a great time together. It allowed me to put some laundry away and make Justin’s bed. We bought some waterproof liner thing to help with Justin’s bed. I can’t wait for that to come in a few days. We read lots of stories and off to bed the kiddos went. Justin was really tired.
