Anyway, summer's almost over! I can't believe that. I have truly enjoyed getting to be here with the boys. What a fantastic opportunity! Sure, my nerves get shot occasionally by the constant and very different needs of 2 little boys, but that's what wine is for. :) We tried to do at least one "fun" thing every day (something small like popcorn and movie, building a fort, playing in the sprinkler, sidewalk chalk, etc.) and tried to go do something "special" once a week (like going to the movies, visiting Nana and Popaw, Chuck E Cheese, etc.). Did it ALWAYS happen? No. But I tried to make the summer fun. I do still want to go to the Ft. Worth Zoo. But it's so damn hot and all those other kids will be there. I'm thinking a September hookey day is in order for that. We'll see.
Today's fun thing? Sprinklers. Trenton had a blast. Carter was interested. He liked watching Trenton. He and I even went through the sprinkler a couple of times. But when the water hit him clear in the face and surprised him, he burst into tears and that was it. We watched from the shade of the front porch from then on, lol. And after 20 minutes or so, Carter was sleepy, so I put him down and went back out and played with Trenton. Did I mention this was in our front yard? Lucky, lucky neighbors. Nothing like a chubby florescent white woman flouncing around in the sprinklers. :/ I think our property values sank while I was outside.
