Labor Day
This morning Nicole woke up early but Justin slept in. We are just happy that daddy is home today. We made waffles and eggs this morning then just played at home. The kiddos wanted to go outside early. We played in the backyard. The kiddos wanted to swing in their swings. Of course swinging isn’t just swinging it is going higher, kicking the tree, and calling Justin a leaf picker. I decided to do some hedging. The kids liked watching. Nicole sat on the deck box and watched. Once I got the broom out, the kids started helping me sweep. Then we headed to Hush Baby for story time. Bret was finally able to go with us. Before hand though we stopped at Michael’s craft store. We got some new Halloween decorations and more stuff to finish Nicole’s tutu. It was so not crowded at story time and the kids loved it that way. They were participating and having fun. They both got dogs painted on their hands, a blue one for Justy and a pink one for Nicole. And I think I found another diaper bag I like….Then we met Grammy for lunch. We all went to In N Out Burger together. Justin loves french fries. They had fun playing along the way back to the car. Nicole was trying to climb the poles of the umbrellas, silly girl. On the way home the kiddos fell asleep in the car. Bret and I just sat in the car in the garage talking about how we can re-organize our messy garage. It was kind of nice just hanging out and talking. After nap, the kiddos played at home. I read books to Nicole while Justin played around us in the futon room. He got out all the Lincoln Logs, so I would read a book then build a house with Justin then switch. Daddy took a cat nap in the chair. We all went outside and played. We tried to work in the garage but the kiddos needed us to much. So dad worked and I played. The kids pushed their umbrella strollers then drove their cars for a bit. We put together our old tent to sell, so the kiddos had fun playing in it. We used the rain cover as a parachute, very fun. The kids loved going under it. We came home and made dinner then just played until bath. Justin took the bowl of bones and pushed it with the dog toy that you shake and make it go, silly. It was bath night and the kiddos really needed a bath. Justin didn’t want to stay in the bath too long. So he was all over playing wanting to go to his room. He loves playing with my clock since it has the time on the ceiling, he likes moving the projection around. We read a ton of books, and are now hoping the kiddos go to sleep since they napped.
