We stayed home for a while which was nice. I felt like we haven’t been home for a while. We met some friends at a pumpkin patch. The kids had a great time. Justin and Mikey played a lot together. Nicole hung out with Christy and Lexie. In fact when I came to Nicole she said “I want to stay with Christy”. The kids went in the jump house and all the coin rides. Justin and Mikey were pushing each other in the bouncer, but it was innocent play as they were laughing. Nicole fed the animals. It was a nice morning. They were running around and screaming through the haunted house. Not scary screaming just playing with their friends. After we met some friends at the bike park. We just love it there. The kids were hungry but chose to ride their bikes first. Finally we had a picnic lunch. Justin had so much fun at the park he asked when we could go back. I am thinking about doing a little pre school birthday party there for the kiddos. When we got home the kids played a bit. But then Nicole broke Justin’s track and he hit her. He knew he was wrong and quickly apologized, but Nicole wasn’t wrong. We read lots of books today. The kiddos have really been into books today. The kiddos took a bath and Justin stayed in the bath forever. Glad he had so much fun in there. Nicole kept on bringing him toys. We played upstairs for a while and organized some books. Dad came home and we made dinner. Dad read lots of books with Justin while Nicole helped me in the kitchen. She was so excited to set the table, help me cook, and even put things in the big recycling bin. I hope she is always this helpful. Her favorite thing is getting a new apple juice in the garage. After dinner the kiddos watched TV for a bit. Dad got the mail and my new lens came. Oh my god it is so cool, I can’t wait to go take pics. We went upstairs and the kids played more. They rolled this paperweight ball around. They did the usual pretend that they are the pre school teacher, etc. Both kids wanted us to hang out after lights went out. I love that time but I also want to get some stuff done.
