We had a lot of fun moments this summer, but it was also a challenging one with Scott being gone so much. I had to remind myself that our children are . . .
(times by four)
Especially when they do things like this on Scott's and my birthday. Thanks Rigby! Bread, flour and jam on the carpet; not exactly the birthday cake I wanted. Loving my carpet cleaner though! I think Scottie came home to eat dinner and help me with the kids for one hour that day; not a great day for either of us. Oh well, could be worse.
Many days they looked like this: Adeline not matching and wearing Reuben't pants, Peter still in pajamas, and Rigby sporting the underwear look (at least he is not naked). I promise I dressed them when we went out in public.
But amidst the craziness there were some fun and cute moments that melted my heart.
The boys love doing soda pop bottle experiments. Here they are with one where we watched the yeast and sugar produce CO2 which caused this balloon to blow up.
The kids enjoyed making these chocolate mustaches and lips with my mom.
Grandma Stewart also spoiled them by getting them some fun pajamas.
We did a lot of fun activities and earned some "brag tags" (little plastic tags) to put on their key chains:
Roller Skating
Lego Building Workshop
Scooter Ride
Library Reading Program
(12 hours of reading or being read to)
By the way kids, I do expect some BIG returns someday like lots of grandchildren and taking care of your dad and I when we get elderly. Love you all so much!
