May 27th-June 2nd

D: SMILE!
He loves playing with flashlights and taking 'pictures' of himself
(5/27) Work day for Dad and me.  The kids normally go to Kathy's, but her boys were both sick.  BOO for germs!  Sarah graciously watched the twinsies for us, and I left work early to pick C up from school.  I then collected the twins & we spent a sunny afternoon hanging out.


(5/28) Work day for Dad, and I had the kiddos.  I am done volunteering in C's classroom (sniff, sniff) for the year, so the littles and I had Nanan over for a visit.  She stayed through their nap, and had dinner with us.  The littles decorated the back deck with chalk and hammed it up.


(5/29) Work day for me, and Dad had the kiddos.  I came home in time for Dad & C to leave for hockey, only there was no hockey.  Ugh.  So home they came.  The littles assisted with pizza-eating.  J, by removing the tomatoes, and D, by taking the olives off my slices and eating them.  They're so helpful!


(5/30) Work day for Dad and me, and Kathy had the kiddos.  We got a call to take in an extra kiddo for the weekend, so we hustled home, got dinner started... and then finished... and then the kiddos went to bed before she arrived.  We visited, got her settled, and watched part of a movie before turning in.


(5/31) Dad and the kiddos all were up super early, all except our extra.  She came down later, after breakfast had been made & inhaled. Nanan called and invited us up to have a picnic at the park.  That sounded perfect for a bright & sunny day.  We headed up, grabbed some lunch, and hit the park.  Wore everyone out, and the twins conked on the way home.  I put them down for a little bit of an extension of their nap when we got home, and they slept for another hour or so.  Enough time for us to finish the movie we started yesterday.  After they got up, we hit the spray park for some more fun.  D was his normal self, and was completely soaked within minutes.  J, though, was cracking me up.  He crouched down and reached out as far as he could to touch the water, then would run back to me so I could dry his hands.  LOL!  Neither twin enjoyed *leaving* the park when it was time, but D kept running off, and it was dinnertime.  We made pizzas when we got home and watched some TV to wind down from a busy day.  The twins were out within minutes of putting them down. C was not far behind.


(6/1)  Another early morning for the littler kids, and our extra again slept in.  After breakfast, I took the two older kids swimming, and Dad kept the twins.  We got home after the littles had gone down for their nap, so we made lunch and watched a little TV.  Then our extra and I went to Roller Derby!  That was awesome ~ I've never been, and neither had she, so it was a fun treat.  We got home late, but props to Walgreens for getting our pictures printed from this weekend so fast!  I hugged all the boys, who had already gone to bed.  Didn't get to spend much time with them today, but they reportedly had fun with Dad.


(6/2) Work day for me and Dad has the kids today.  C has school, and our extra goes back.  Sigh. But it was a fun weekend!
