We ended up leaving on Sat (instead of Sun) because Daddy's tourney got rained out. We left around 11 am and got in around 11 am. Not bad time. The kids did OK. C did very well. K--well that's another story. She thru a fit at least twice and did not want to get back in her seat. Poor thing. I can't blame her. She and I colored, did puzzles, watched Elmo, listened to music. I was just as tired as she was. And of course she only slept for about 20 minutes.
Sunday we grilled out, played outside some, the kids went swimming again, and we found some baby bunnies. K loved the pool. She did not want in the floaty, but did not want anyone to hold her. She was ready to take off on her own. C did really well. He could actually touch the bottom but was brave enough to go under and swim around. The water was so cold though. They all came out with chattering teeth and blue lips.
Monday the men worked on siding one side of Mom's house. It looks really nice. The women tried to set up this tent thingy. It kept collapsing every time the wind blew too hard. We also made homemade ice cream. Yummo.
After dinner we had a small party for K's birthday. She got more Elmo stuff and a tool set from her Aunt and Uncle and kids. She thought the tools were for her to do her hair. Her uncle made a very nice Elmo cake. Then there was a Wii tourney before the relatives went home. It's kinda funny to watch. Even Grandma was getting into it. Aunt was jumping up and down when she did good. K found a remote for a recliner and was "playing" Wii with that. So every now and then, there goes the chair way up in the air or way back to the wall. That was funny to watch too.
Tuesday we went to see Grandma Great. We spent the day there and the kiddies were soooooo good, even though there wasn't much for them to do. We even visited another friend of Grandma's for a few minutes. On the way home we stopped at Wal-Mart for a few things and the kids got to pick out a toy for being so good. Daddy and C also got Yankees shirts to wear to the game on Saturday.
Just a funny story about my 2 kiddies from Tuesday morning. Monday night the relatives left and went home to sleep in their own bed, so I put both my kids in the same room so: A) I could hear them both and B) so K wouldn't be scared. Well Tuesday morning before 8am (at home they usually aren't allowed up til it's an 8) C came into our room and told us K was awake. I told him to go back in there and talk to her until it was an 8. So back in he goes. "So what do you want to talk about? You want to talk about the Hulk?" Daddy and I quietly laughed so hard the bed shook. We just laid there and listened to them for awhile. It was so funny.
As of right now, that gets you up to date and that's all the good stuff that I can remember. I'll try to touch base probably this weekend and get caught back up.
