I've been slacking off in my blogging lately! Nothing overly exciting has happened... just busy with lots of small stuff!
Last Friday I took all the kids to the splash pad by my parents house in Brooklin. Dad and Robbie came with us too. They had a blast! Dad and I just sat in the blazing sun chatting while I tried to protect Ella's baby skin from the harmful UV rays.... It was actually sunny out! Well, until we got home and left the stroller in the driveway...it then- of course, began to pour. The rain stopped in time for soccer that night. Scott rode his bike over with all the kids.... it's hilarious to watch! :)
On Saturday we basically just stayed home and relaxed. Well....except for Scott taking two of the girls out and getting everything he needed to build my new closet doors! :D Yay! Our front closet finally has doors... and Scott did an amazing job. Our neighbour wants him to do work in her house too!
The kids and I reorganized the shoes...
...just a few pairs...honest.
I also took Keona out shopping so she could spend her birthday money... I'll write more about that tomorrow...
Oh yeah...and I made a delicious New York Style Cheesecake! After the kids were in bed I cut out two slices for Scott and I to eat. As I lifted the spring-form pan to put it in the fridge.... the clasp broke and my $20 cheesecake literally exploded all over the floor... only me...at least we each got a slice.
On Sunday we had a great day at church! I came home and slept all afternoon, and then I was in Jed's nursery Sunday night. Jeddy and his friend Jackie are so cute together! They love sharing their snacks and feeding each other!
Thankfully Monday was a holiday. Scott let me sleep in and I came downstairs to a hot tea and clean kitchen! What an amazing hubby I have. :)
Later on I took Keona and her friend Nicholas for a bike ride around the neighbourhood. Keona almost got hit by a car.... well not really... but more than close enough for my liking! I now understand why my Mom was so mad when she saw me and my friends riding recklessly up and down the streets.
Now for a quick story from today....
I left Charity in the living room alone with Ella and Nicole this morning while I went upstairs to wake up Scott. Nicole was in her high chair finishing breakfast and Ella was asleep on the couch... While I was upstairs I heard Ella start to cry, so I came back down. As I walked through the doorway I noticed that Ella wasn't in her spot on the couch where I left her.... and Charity was busy playing with Nicole. I'm thinking 'Where is Ella!?" As I pass the chair I can see her legs hanging off the other end of the couch, where Jed is trying to wrap a blanket around her and pick her up! I grabbed her before she fell, but man....I nearly had a heart attack! And Jeddy is just saying "Hold her! Crying...."
I want to know how he flipped her over and got her to the other end of the couch...
Oh my... your little boy is just too helpful!
