Bret was working late last night. I walked with a couple friends this morning. Dad played lots of games with the kiddos. It is so hot though! We all went to Costco this morning. It was getting a little crowded but the kids were really good. Nothing too exciting we got gas and lunch then headed home. The kids went in the jacuzzi while dad and I worked out in the backyard. They had so much fun in the jacuzzi, they used their floaties. We have been neglecting our jacuzzi and it needs some maintenance-ugh. After I gave the kids a shower. They love using the sprayer thing in the bath. Nicole let me put pig tails in and it looks so cute. They have been watching the trailer to Alvin and the Chipmunks and love it. They are saying Chickawow from the movie-Alvin said it. So silly. We fought turning on our air conditioning, so we decided to go to the mall. I needed to look at a couple things for the kids. It was so crowded at the mall; we should have figured. The kids rode on a little train there in the caboose. We came home and finally gave in and turned on the air conditioning. The kids watched some Seasame Street and dad rested. Then Paula’s kiddos came over. We were babysitting so Paula and her hubby could have a night out. Sarah and Nicole played really well together, playing baby and grocery store. They pretended to be hiding from the monsters. Katie and Michael played with the race track and Justin was outside helping daddy with sprinklers. The kids all loved eating dinner, Nicole said pop goes the bread and all the kids were cracking up. It was really funny listening to the kiddos. We decided to go on bunny path-we were hoping to see some bunnies. The kids had fun pretending to scare us. They went on all the stepping stones and had quite and an adventure. They all played really well together. The kids went to bed a little late but are sound asleep now. Bret and I cleaned up and we are pretty tired, maybe it is the heat.
