Mission Accomplished

Yes, that's right. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!!

Now, how did I get to this VERY happy place??

You know, the place with THREE SLEEPING CHILDREN!!

Drum roll please...

TA DA!!! The KIDDIE POOL!!!

This is how we've been spending a good 4 hours of EVERY day.

And, can I say SUCCESS! They literally fall asleep eating a snack

before nap time and are just bumps on a log come bedtime.

However, they still get that second wind once I turn off the

light and take a few minutes to settle back down and fall

asleep, but they're sleeping GOOD! And, mommy is

getting quite the tan in the process. :)

Graham is watering my flowers with his dolphin squirter.

Um, hey buddy, you're pointing that thing in the WRONG

direction!!! We're working on that one. He always ends up

squirting himself in the face!

Patrick and Marshall have discovered how to create their

own water slide! They fill up buckets with water, climb up

to the slide, pour the water down and then slide down at

light speed. They've also discovered that it's even more fun

if you dump a lot of water at the base of the slide to create a

mud pit to slide down in to. Gotta love boys- and summer!!
