Justin woke up at the crack of dawn this morning. I laid down with him and cuddled. He finally fell asleep again. But every time I went to leave he kept on moving closer to me. I decided since I was up I better go out and go for a run. It was nice to get out but I have lost a lot of my stamina. I was tired after running for 5 minutes. When I got home Justin was downstairs. Him and I just played-it was really nice. This morning the kids and I walked to the library for a story time/craft thing. Walking is always an adventure. Dad stayed home to get some stuff done. The kids had to pick out good/bad food from grocery ads, of course the cutting and the glue were most fun. Dad picked us up and we picked out some new library books. We got some lunch and headed over to check out soccer for Justin. Tomorrow is the younger kids, today seemed overwhelming so hopefully it is much more mellow with the younger ones. Dad read some library books and I got some books ordered from Scholastic. The kids played outside for a bit. They took their crayons outside on the picnic table. We took the kiddos to the park. They had a great time, playing Chip and Dale, shoveling/throwing sand in the air, going down the slides, etc. The weather has definitely changed-it is getting cooler. We stopped at Ihop for dinner. The kids loved it. They tried all the dif’t flavors of syrup and got pancakes for dinner. What could be better than that. So cute, such a great place to take the kiddos. Even though we were pretty much the only ones in the place. When we got home I worked on editing pics while the kids watched some TV. Finally we went upstairs and read books. Nicole came in to say goodnight to Justin but Justin said he was too tired to say goodnight. Needless to say he fell right to sleep, we still hear Nicole babbling up there.
