Today was about as good as it gets. Kids slept until about 6:30 and we all managed to get out of the house before 8:30! We headed down to the park for a while. When the kids stopped using the slides and swings, we headed back home. We hung out in the front for a while, so I decided to pull some weeds. I got all the prickly ones that I could find. I'll have to go back and get the rest another day. Then we came in and I had to work 10-12. I only had 1 session during that time, but Jon took the kids in the basement to play just in case. He brought them up around 11:30 for lunch and James fell asleep in his high chair. He transferred to his crib for a little over an hour, which gave me a chance to eat lunch and relax. Around 1 I took him into our room to finish his nap and he slept until almost 3! Then Jon took Caroyln to the store and James and I played at home. When they got home, we all shared popsicles out front. Then came in for dinner and then bed. Both kids went down pretty easily tonight, I think we tired them out with all the outside playing and attention. Maybe that's the secret to a good night's rest! I think we read Carolyn over 20 books today, not including nap and bed time stories.
And now I get a chance to relax, with the house opened up ready to cool off in the night air. Tomorrow is playgroup here and I'm looking forward to it. Carolyn will have some other kids to play with and I'll have some adults other than Jon to talk to. Plus I get to finish the day with soccer. Hopefully the weather holds out and it doesn't rain until the afternoon.
Still haven't heard about the full time job, hopefully within the next 3 days...
