We Love Weekends
This morning we decided to start the painting of the fence. Bret got about half way done and decided to stop and have the guy that built it paint it. The kids painted at the same time. We gave them a big piece of plywood and they made a masterpiece. Then the kiddos wanted to go in the swings. Swinging them is not a peaceful event anymore as all you hear is higher, higher, etc. Then we decided to go to the Spectrum. The kids went on the carousal, of course. We went and had lunch at Red Robin. The kids loved getting balloons. We stopped in the toy store and pet store. The dogs were so cute. I ran to Nordstrom to do some girly shopping. We came home and the kiddos wanted to go see their new beds. We finished putting Nicole’s together (see pic). It is so cute and girly.
Of course we feel terrible that Justin’s doesn’t have a cute top. We may try to build one ourselves. After the kiddos watched some TV and took a rest. So we decided to make Justin a top out of PVC piping. Right now he has a ghetto bed, but we are hoping with the help of Grammy’s sewing skills he will have a nice top. He loved it though. He calls it his cave. We took the kiddos to Home Depot to get all the supplies. They love the race car bed but Nicole was full of tantrums today. Ugh. She is tired and still has a little runny nose, so maybe that just contributed to it. We played outside for a long time from scooters to bikes to catch, etc. After dinner, the kiddos took a bath. They were wild. They didn’t mean to splash all the water out of the tub but they were busy moving all around. After bath, more wild kids and I mean wild. They were jumping out of their beds and playing. Having fun but a bit crazy. Getting in Justin’s cave together. It was really hard to settle them down tonight. They did like brushing their teeth in the cave. We just rocked them and told lots of stories. Finally they are sleeping.
