Anyone else up? C got up at 6. I’m not sure why but since we stayed up late binge watching 13 Reasons, I’m tired.
We have Tball this morning and then we are headed to the farm sanctuary with my cousin and his boy. After we are surprising C with a hotel room near there for the night. He loves hotel life and the of course.
So it should be a fun day. I just need coffee!

Hi wedding!! I'm also up, as are the boys. Colin is playing quietly(ish) and Chase is rolling around in his crib. I'm hoping he'll fall back to sleep because DH came to bed late and is still dead to the world, and I am headed to running group for the first time all month. It only got down to 76 inside last night. But I got the deck furniture out and cleaned last night, so we can eat meals outside. And I made smoothie popsicles for the boys and promised lots of time in the sprinkler and pool after T-ball. I'll probably be in the sprinkler even!! My sister is getting remarried today. I know we're not close and DH and I joke about how old her fiance is, but I hope she's as happy as she says she is. She's been through a lot over the years and deserves a good break.

Dd woke up at 5.15... not fun. It is 90 degrees over here and she’s apparently exactly like me, she does not like warm weather, she’s miserable. There’s a fair in Dh’s parents street and after ds’s nap we have to go. I do not want to, it is to hot, there an tons of people there I do not know or like and I’m no good at small talk.

I just pull out the bleach spray which is probably not great for the fabric. But neither is that green film that was forming... O also got up at 6.

I'm up. Everyone else is asleep, and I discovered Evie in our bed. Inside baby is also awake and kicking me like crazy! Like joelies we cleaned all our outdoor furniture yesterday. H had been using the screened porch like a workshop all winter and everything was covered in saw dust. It took him 5 hours to clean it all. We were both exhausted by the end of the day. My ILs come today. I'm going to get a pedicure and maybe lunch with my sister and let them parent for a bit 😉

It’s too bad you have a migraine and need to stay home 😉 Do you guys have air conditioning?

Nope no air conditioning . Things are tense enough as it is with the inlaws. I’m going the minimum amount of time needed, thanks for thinking in my best interest 😉.

Evie was up at 6:30. I'm not sure what our plans are. Last weekend, we discussed going to the lake one day with my mom, then to my dad's pool the other day. When I told H I made those plans, he seemed really annoyed.
I told him he gets to decide what we do, since he was out of town all week. But Evie knows the plans and is excited about all the swimming, so hopefully he wakes up in a good mood.

tgrimes how is H this morning? I just caught up on yesterday's thread. I'm so sorry you're still dealing with this! And e has a Hello Kitty bike. I think we got it for her 3rd birthday. She still loves HK, and it isn't overly obnoxious.

I know Evie is one of the bigger kiddos here, but I have a life jacket question. After we got home last night, it occurred to me that we needed to make sure he life jacket would still work for the boat.
She weighs 48lbs. Her life jacket is for 30-50 lbs. The next size, that I can find, is 50-90 lbs, which seems like would be huge. I'm trying to see if anyone carries like 40-60 lb. Ill see how the one she has works today.
She uses a puddle jumper for the pool and it still fits fine. I don't trust the puddle jumper for the lake and won't out a life jacket that has been in the lake, in a pool, so we have to have both.

I was exhausted last might so we went out for dinner. Half way through my daily dull headache turned into a full on migraine. I was seeing spots and almost vomited my dinner. I came home and went straight to bed at 7:30.. A brought the boys in for bed later and J was so loud I was crying from the pain which only makes it worse. I woke up at 3am and it was still horrible. I woke up at 7 and it was gone. It's 9 now and the boys have been up for about an hour. I'm letting A sleep in.

One day the gymnastics coach is going to realize he needs to split up Cadence and her little friends E and A. They are such little troublemakers when they are together. But dang it, they are also super cute together. LOL

Happy weekend! Everyone was up early. Hockey was canceled so we officially have no sports until Wednesday. We took a rare whole family walk including the puppy to the bakery for breakfast. Then DH took DS1 to the movies and I took the other 3 to Costco as soon as it opened. Later we are BBQing at my sister’s.

joelies have you thought about getting a portable air conditioner unit? We had one in our apartment since we couldn't have a window one. Here's and example (not a good one for this weekend since it says it takes 2-3 months. We got ours from sears I think.

Morning! I have to work this weekend which is especially lame because Memorial Day isn’t my holiday (so I have Monday off at least). This is at my regular job btw. I slept in this morning and have been relaxing. Tomorrow morning I’m going to go into the garden center for a couple of hours. DH took the girls on a cemetery tour this morning. It’s already hot as balls outside, high today is supposed to be 94. I’m so bummed to miss out on it, to sit inside instead. I plan on slacking big time at work.

chrisy01 - We could but it's a lot of money for something we'd need a couple of, then use only when the central air goes out. It's actually not too bad so far - the boys are playing in the pool and sprinkler, we're having a cookout for lunch, and they should be too exhausted by nap to care how warm it is.

joelies I used an oscillating standing fan at my Dad's since his ac was broken. Cheaper and easy to put away when not in use.

Colin's tee-ball game was hysterical. There were only 3 kids on his team, including him. There were 7 or 8 on the other team! He got to bat twice each inning instead of once, so he was happy.
Now he's running around in the yard and I can't get over how much he's thinned out.
