Staycation – Day 3

Today was a GREAT day! The kids were really good (well, as good as kids can get anyway šŸ˜‰ ) Gabriel came home, and it was a pretty relaxing day.

We started out lazing about until the twins’ gym class. As always, they have super fun…and are always the ones running around and not necessarily following directions. Mike was able to see them in action – so that was cool.

We came home and went for a short drive to bring the lawn mower to a local repair guy. (hopefully he’ll be able to fix it before the yard looks like a jungle, and for not too much!!).

Then we went for a short walk around the block to hang up posters for the missing cat. MAN OH MAN it was hot today!!

We hung out in the back yard and in the kiddie pool for the rest of the afternoon. Heaven. šŸ™‚ Logan had a few firsts as well: waving to daddy and riding on a tricycle!

Believe it or not, this next picture was not staged. (okay, anyone with kids believes it – they don’t cooperate enough to sit still for a picture like this LOL!)

At dinner time, we came in and Logan had a few food firsts as well: real sweet potatoes (instead of the Gerber smooshed-up kind) and raviolis (Costco brand – which are actually quite tasty!).

Mike went outside to move the sprinklers and gave a happy shout.Ā  I knew immediately that he saw Gabe…and that he’d probably scared the crap out of him LOL But he was able to calm Gabe down enough to snag him and bring him back inside. (He’s sitting at my feet right now…)

A good day. šŸ™‚

  1. Glad Gabe come back! Animals are such a huge part of family life.

  2. YAY! I’m glad Gabe is back.

    It’s unbearably hot and muggy here today too. I was going to do some weeding, but I couldn’t bear to be outside for more than a few minutes.

  3. I’m confused about Gabriel, I thought he came home last night? Did you just see him last night but he didn’t come in the house? Regardless, I’m glad he’s home safe (in the house) again.

  4. Today is actually Day 4…so I wrote Day 3 late last night. Lost, Found, and Staycation – Day 3 were all written in the same day: morning, evening, and late night. šŸ™‚
