The kids and I just got back from our Ohio trip this past Tuesday! We went up Last Friday and stayed with Julie, Arin and Henry while her husband was on his annual Canada Fishing/camping trip! We had a great time! Julie and I are really close and I'm so glad that our friendship has become as strong as it is! I would wish her kind of friendship onto anyone! :)
The kids had a BLAST! We crammed a ton in those few days we were there. We hit the malls, the splash park, Mcdonalds play area, Galaxy Games and Golf and other misc things! What a fun time! Julie and I got to hang out after the kids went to bed and we just sat on the back deck and talked away! I love that! I wish she was closer. It was really hard to leave. tears were shed.
Galaxy Golf and Games was SO much fun! Even the adults can get in on the gym time! We were running around like kids, playing hide n seek, sliding down the slides, playing in the ball pit! How much fun it was!
I was very impressed with their prices!
The drive home from Ohio was very exhausting. The kids were fighting about anything and everything and Gavin had these loud screaming fits for 20 min at a time. I was ready to pull my hair out. We made it home safe and sound in time for the kids to hop into bed. Olivia started kindergarten the very next day!!
Olivia's first day was on Wed the 19 and it was for half day. Parents were allowed to stay with their child and see what kindergarten was all about! I went and my dad came and stayed with the boys! Olivia LOVED it! She made some new friends and was so excited! She loves her teacher!
She is going a full day of Kindergarten now and I worried a little about it being a long day but so far, she is still excited! She runs off the bus with a happy smile on her face and is excited to tell me about her day!
Our house is so much different without Olivia. She must be the life of the house. The boys are so much quieter then Olivia so the house stays pretty quiet. The boys are content playing in their room while I clean, which is nice b/c they aren't all fighting for my attention. Don't get me wrong, I miss Olivia so much when she's not here but I could tell that she was getting bored being at home. she loves a good challenge and putting her mind to things!
Channing went to the Dr the other day. He has swimmer's ear. He has drops for them. He weighs 29 lbs and is 44.5 inches. He has been eating a lot more lately so hopefully he is finally going through a growth spurt!
Gavin is a bully! He is always on the go! He loves getting into EVERYTHING! He's saying more words and likes to do what his siblings do. When it comes time to brush teeth. Gavin knows to spit in the toilet and then he wipes his mouth after he's done. Just like Olivia and channing do. It's so funny!
Anyway, I'm thinking about having Channing screened to start preschool? Still thinking about it but hopefully if anything it will just put him on a waiting list for next year! I still think 3 is young to start school. Unless need be.....
