This morning we were supposed to go to a friend’s house but they cancelled as they were sick. So we were in the car so I dragged the kiddos to the grocery store. The kids were so good at the store and had fun pushing the carts. I let them look at books for a bit. We came home and just played. We got the house ready for the carpet cleaning. Our carpets looks so great. We meant to get them cleaned after potty training but didn’t do it until now. We were supposed to have a swimming lesson today. I got the kids all ready but the swim instructor didn’t show up. Oh well we had a great time at the pool anyway. The kids love the pool. We went in the big pool and the kiddie pool. They both went under water, so cool. They are growing up so fast. We were at the pool for the longest time. We were almost ready to go home but then the kids saw the swim team getting ready. They were full of questions, such as why are there lanes? Why are the kids lined up? etc. N&J were so excited to just sit there and watch. We came home and the kids played. Dad got home and the kids played outside. They did chalk and then Justin wanted to drive his car. He wanted us to run next in front of the car while he drove. Nicole sat on the back of Justin’s car and he gave her a ride, totally cute. We got a video. Then the kids went in the backyard while we bbq’d. They were in their swings for a while and then just played. Our friend Arthur came for a visit and is staying with us for the weekend. We all had dinner. After dinner the kids went upstairs. They took their little stools upstairs and loved looking out the window. They were playing so nicely. When I asked what they were doing they said reading books. Then Nicole asked me back what I was doing. We got out the new Aerobed for Arthur. The kids thought it was their trampoline. They had a blast jumping on it. It was funny. We went upstairs and it is 8:30 and the kiddos are still awake. We read some books and said goodnight. The kids were wild. They wanted us to keep their stools upstairs but we knew better. I did go up there once and they were playing in their closet. The light was on and we heard their toys. Nicole had to go poop and all of a sudden she looks at her poop and says it looks like corn dogs. Nice.
