This post should really be titled “weekly recap” because that’s really all I do on this little space anymore- but, such is life - I’m just glad to have somewhere to document our mundane and magical times as a family.
I surprised the kids last week and took them to see Christopher Robin- I left work a little early and we made the 4 show- it was a semi success. I saw some of the trailer and thought it’d be more like a paddingtom the bear remake - but this movie was definitely not “suited” for 4 year olds. Graham did just fine and watched the whole thing, but Thomas- welp, I basically had to hold him in my lap to keep him from bouncing around and moving the recliner seats 4297 times. (Totally different kids- Thomas just does not have the ability to sit still for a long time- takes after my side of the family ;-) ) Collins enjoyed it- and watched the whole thing, but I’ll say it wasn’t her fav either. All of my kids love the new paddington bear movies but this one just wasn’t as good.
The boys had their last camp of summer last week- love these boogs so much.
Mikey was gone Thursday and Friday night- we went to a friends and went swimming after work Thursday and ended up having a slumber party - no pics, but the kids swam for two hours and had pizza by the pool- I’d say it was a fun Thursday.
We chilled and had movie night Friday - we were all asleep early and everyone slept in my bed! Fun treat for the kids ;-)
We spent some time at the library Saturday morning- and came home with tons of new books!
After lunch, we headed out for our last lake day before school starts back- we had a super fun day and were all home asleep by 9:30. This was the first time we let the boys swim at sandy beach without life jackets- they did awesome!
My mom and I took Collins down to the dance studio on Sunday for some fun pictures they do every year- and then my parents came over Sunday early evening for a boat ride and grilling out. I am so proud to say Collins learned to ski!!! They all tried it- and G actually held on for a while, but just sat on the skis- was so funny. Collins has tried one other time earlier this summer and gotten close - she was SO excited to get it!!
