Hmm let’s start with today… in the morning after a nap for Emanuel we took the boys to Superstore to get diapers and whatever we need for tomorrow… then in the afternoon we headed off to the public pool. We were there over an hour playing. I swear Emanuel is my merboy… he was adament he had to go into the deeper waters… life jacket for him next time! The other two are much more content in the shallower end. Karyn managed to come up for it too. It is always nice to have another set of hands. The Bleaus and Daveys were supposed to come but the guys had to go to the city to get some stuff from their car business moved. We are meeting with them tomorrow. After swimming the boys were totally worn out and had a great nap. It really was fun and great timing – we got there at 1 when the public swim started and by the time we were out and it was hot and ucky the boys were off for a nap. I think we hit around 30/31 today.
On her way back to the city Karyn had some car trouble and had to wait for a tow that took her only to the nearest town so Ken went to get her and take her the rest of the way. So since she missed most of the birthday party she was heading to Ken and her went to a movie… so that leaves me… you guessed it… home alone with the boys. Course the twins are fighting sleep saying "I’m Done" over and over and Emanuel is out like a light. The apartment is FINALLY cooling off so I took the chance to turn on the oven and bake the half baked buns for tomorrow… I am trying to get the boys to sleep, the buns done, some tidying done (not that you could ever notice for all the clutter ARGH) and do some quiet activity….
That leads me to last night – Ken gave me my birthday present from him and the boys finally! Turns out he has been saving since March when my brother came to visit with his – a Ninetendo DS Lite and since it does not come in blue he got me the pink one! I am so going to have to get a bright pink bag to carry it in! He also got me a game – Animal Crossing Wild World. It is so cute and great to learn how to use the touch pad! I feel so spoiled! He stood in line on a busy night in Walmart to get it for me!
I finished two more cross stitches and am onto the one for my dad and his wife… so many more to go but the finished ones are stacking up. I do have two babies to be born right away – Alan and Xinny’s in August and my cousin Amber’s first in a matter of weeks. So I will have to do those soon too.
All in all a pretty good weekend so far!!!
