Here it is Sunday night and I am sitting and enjoying the peace and quiet. Adam is at softball, Maddie is at Bill & Holly's house playing a video game with Steven, and the boys are both sleeping upstairs. Even the dog is asleep. It is so nice when it is quiet and I can get alot accomplished in a short about of time. We had a good weekend. Yesterday we spent time getting odds and ends done around the yard and inside the house. We finally let the kids get in the big pool. Kinnick screamed the whole time and so he did not stay in for long. I think it will just take a few tries with him because it is something new for him and so it will take some time for him to adjust. Here is a picture that I took of Maddie and Carter in the pool...
After we got Kinnick out of the pool and dried off he enjoyed himself by writing with sidewalk chalk and running all over the place, including out of our driveway and onto the gravel road. Adam and I were both outside with the kids but he still managed to get all the way on the road before we caught him. We scolded him numerous times because he kept doing it. Nothing mattered to him. He was determined to play on the road. It is amazing how quickly they can run when you look away for a split second.
Today we all woke up and got ready for church. We were walking in...........WAIT A MINUTE..........I AM WATCHING SOUND OFF WITH KEITH MURPHY AND JUST NOW THEY STARTED PLAYING ELVIRA........I LOVE THAT SONG!!!!! AWESOME!!!! Okay, back to church this morning, we walked in during the first hymn. I guess we were officially late. We walk into church and the first thing Carter says is "Where is Grandma at?" Of course he said this in a loud voice and everyone heard him. He and Kinnick argued pretty much during the whole hour we were there and finally Adam took Kinnick outside because I could not get him to calm down. Carter asked me where he was going and I told him that Kinnick was going out of church because he was being naughty. (Carter knows what happens when you get taken out of church for being naughty because it has happened to him more than once). When Carter realized that Kinnick had been naughty and that he was in trouble he cried and cried and cried saying "I love Kinnick, he is my best brother ever, I don't want Kinnick to be in trouble." It was SO CUTE! When we got home we made lunch and then Kinnick went upstairs for his nap. Shortly after that Carter went up for his nap. He was not happy about taking a nap and made sure that we heard it as he screamed in his bed until he woke up Kinnick. FUN! FUN! FUN! After naptime we let the kids have ice cream cones. What a mess! Kinnick loved it but he decided to eat the bottom of the cone first. Here are some of those pictures.
The kids all played outside while Adam grilled a roast for us to have for supper tonight and I was out with them too. Kinnick made several attempts once again to play on the road rather than in the yard. I did manage to interest him in going down the slide and he stuck with doing that for quite a while. We all came inside and had supper and Carter decided that he wanted to try roast. He loved it! He ate it like a little piggy. When we were done with supper I decided to cut Carter's hair. He likes getting his hair cut and sat like a good boy while I clipped it. Here is his after picture.
Carter was not the only one who got....WAIT A MINUTE....THEY ARE PLAYING ELVIRA AGAIN! FUNNY STUFF! Anyway, Wrigley got a haircut too. Here is his picture.
So, there you have it, the details of our weekend!
