Instead we will be trading them in for picnics in park, days at the beach, and nights at the pool!
How could I not be excited?!?!
We you see, lack of a routine day throws my children into a wild downwards spiral...we then I have meltdowns, fighting, yelling, kicking, screaming and lots of tears!
So as much as I will look forward to not having to wake up to an alarm, I still have to keep some kind of "normal" schedule. Not easy on lazy summer days!
Tonight in point, it's hot and humid so I though it would nice to go to my parents for a swim when they came home from Dads house! Great idea, our house is sitting at about 33 degrees (I'm to cheap to run an a/c) well this was a last minute idea...not a good idea for future reference. They didn't have the best visit and Alex just wanted to go home and play on his computer (which is his way to unwind after visits or any stressful day)
But he went, he even went in the pool...for about 20 minutes!!!
Dalton and Nathan where in there for a good hour before dinner and for another 45 minutes afterwards!!!
I have decided they are part amphibian!
Blue lips, wrinkled toes & fingers but still had tears when I said it was time to pack up and head home!
So we are back home know, hot and sweaty again but tomorrow is another day...hopefully a cooler one!!!
Next time I promise to remember my phone so I can take pictures!
