Trying to Walk Again

July 14th, 2008 by melissa

Well this morning I decided since the kiddos are liking the Bob stroller, I will try to walk again. Vena and I went. The kiddos did great. It brought back so many happy memories walking with the kids. I did it every morning for the first year of their life and they napped in the stroller. This time I had to bribe them with a trip to the park if they would stay in the stroller. They did great. Vena and I walked to Hick’s Canyon Park and the kiddos played for a bit. Justin and Nicole were pretty much on the see saw the entire time. We did play catch a bit too. On the walk back, Nicole was getting antsy but with snacks she did great. After we went to story time at Hush Baby at the District. The kiddos had so much fun. Instead of a little bunny they had a little doggie. So the the puppy bopped them on the head and gave them kisses, rather than bunny fu fu. It was cute. The biggest smile on the kid’s faces when the dog comes over. During the song, you’ve got the whole world in your hands, Justin and I clapped our hands together, so cute. Then he was so cuddly, so cute. Nicole turned around in her chair and faced me and wanted cuddles too. Justin got a yellow doggie painted on his hand and Nicole got a pink one. After we walked over to In N Our Burger for lunch. We had fun. We were on an end table, so people were waiting for tables behind us. Justin and Nicole loved entertaining the people, lunch wasn’t eaten too much but the kids had fun. We went into TJ Maxx for a bit and Justin got a new pair of jeans then Michael’s. The kids were so excited to buy glue. Looks like we will be doing crafts this afternoon. The kiddos watched Barney and Elmo’s World. After we went and met some friends down in Ranch Santa Margarita at some fountains. There was a Kohl’s there so I stopped in to exchange daddy’s pants. Can’t believe how long errands take with the kids, we had fun though. We had to ride up and down the escalators and look at all the clothes, hide in the clothes, etc. Then we went over to the fountains. The kids had a great time. I bought cups, water guns, and the tracor and the kiddos had a blast playing with all the toys. They both got really wet which equals lots of fun. We came home and the kids just wanted to play. They barely ate dinner, guess they don’t like my cooking-HA. Then it was craft night. We used their scissors-they like cutting although it does require us holding the paper while they use two hands with the scissors. Then we did stamps. I can’t believe how much they love stamps. Then glue. They both used up the whole bottle of glue, in their defense it was a little bottle but they loved it. We glued phone letters/numbers on the paper. It was great fun. Then bath. The kiddos are getting very splashy in bath. Water everywhere and we are wet. They were pretty tired tonight and went to bed pretty easily-we love that!
