We got out early this morning for a trip to Orchard Park. We had a great time. I had so much fun playing with the kiddos. We played in the sand for a while. No fighting, just playing nicely together. The kids played in the swings for a bit. Then they were sliding down the slide a zillion times. I would high five them or tickle them when they came down, they were laughing so hard. Then they were playing chase each other. Nicole loved it when Justin chased her rather than the opposite. The weather was perfect and we had a blast. We came home and we just played outside in the yard for a while. The kids had fun with the rescue pack, bubble, sand box, etc. We had lunch and played upstairs for a bit. The kids had some quiet time in our bed and I did some ironing while they relaxed and drank water in our bed. We went down to their room for quiet time and read books. This afternoon we went to our My Gym class. The kids had a blast there. They follow everything Neil does for circle time. Also they actually let Neil do some things with them, usually they say I want mommy. Justin and Nicole taught all their friends (Ashley and Jordon) to jump in the ball pit. They were just cracking up while jumping in. The kiddos have become so independent at the gym. They loved playing with the balls and then there was a bubble storm. Neil was teasing the kids as to when the bubbles were going to start and you should have seen Nicole’s face she was so happy when they started. They had fun popping them and chasing them. We came home and I had two tired kids. We had dinner and then went upstairs. We gave the kiddos showers tonight. I think Nicole’s bladder infection is much better. She was able to wear underwear all day with no issues. Luckily we caught it early enough. So we had a mellow night, reading books. Nicole wanted me to read the same book over and over again. We put them to bed a little earlier and I had to tell them lots of stories. But they are sound asleep.
