Summer Days Drifting Away, To, Uh Oh, Those Summer Nights


C: We should think about getting a boat because I have my crabbing license. Me and Jordan are saving up to get our own boat!



(6/30) Work day for me and Dad had the kids.  I'm all moved in to my new cube and have a veritable green house going.  Our agent suggested thinning the garden window down to just a select few plants, so I brought them all to work.  Dad took the boys to the Depot today and D told me it's too loud, but they got fun new stuff to clean with, so huzzah for that.


(7/1) Day off for me, and work day for Dad. Converted the twins to big boy beds today.  They have been getting out of their cribs for weeks now, and then J's crib broke when he was climbing on it today, so that was the final straw.  Bedtime just got more fun.  Sigh.  We did get out to the lake today to enjoy the sunshine, so that was lovely.  The twins are getting so brave with their swimming!  J still doesn't love getting his head wet, but he willingly goes in up to his ears.  


(7/2) Work day for me, but we were loosed early for the holiday.  I stopped by Starbucks for iced drinks, and then went and sat outside and watched the kids play at Sarah's.  D thinks their pool is way cooler because it is blue, but I'm thinking it might have something to do with the dome over it.  We stayed until J wore out our welcome allllll over said dome.  Thank you very much, J.  And then we went home for dinner, and to meet up with Dad. 


(7/3) C spent the night at Sarah's, and we met up in the morning to hand over Pokemon cards, and go to Zumba.  We stopped at the popcorn store (Ace Hardware) since they had umbrellas for sale, and they were out of popcorn (aka hadn't made it yet).  Deedles was crushed.  He told us all day about how sad he was that they were out of popcorn. C got to go out crabbing with Sarah's fam and they brought back 6.  Awesome!  

This not napping business is going well.
(7/4) Happy Fourth!  We're staying home today to make sure our neighbors don't burn our house down.  Dad worked until 4p and then brought home kabob fixins, which we had plus some delicious crab that Sarah dropped off from C's crabbing adventure yesterday.  I got Pop-its for the boys, but since fireworks are illegal in the city and it's been so dry, we didn't do anything more than that. 

Pop-its with Dad
Complete with cheese
(7/5) We were busy today.  Dad ran several loads to the dump, and we sent another load to Value Village.  I vacuumed, steam cleaned, and washed the walls.  We met with our agent today to talk about timing, and figure we're at least another week out.  We managed to get the twins to take a nap by separating them, but it still is taking almost 3 hours to get them down at night, nap or no nap.  Combo of the light and heat, I guess.  But ugh. I'm ready to put blackout curtains up... or bungee them to their beds.  

Zombie bebe eats brains for breakfast.
Tastes like cherries.
(7/6)  Work day for me and Dad has the kiddos today.  I have to work a full week this week.  I haven't done that in what feels like a looooong time.  Best get to it!
