Well this month is half gone already and we are just 5 weeks from leaving for the cabin. I'm ready for some cooler mornings at least and NO traffic. We are still at Bobby's and the traffic noise here is loud as his place is near a busy 2 lane road and we hear noise all hours of the day and night. Saturday was a fun day with the boys as we spent Friday and last night here with them. Bobby and Katie made it to beautiful Madrid, Spain and their hotel was a 5 Star one. I visited there back in the 60's and was quite impressive with everything especially the food and wine.
We fixed breakfast for the boys and then headed out for a mid morning walk and ride through the 'hood. We let them run at times as this 'hood has only two entrances and its quiet. They rode from time to time in the stroller but both like to run. It was starting to get hot out side by 11'ish so we played until lunch time in the house and then served them lunch and put them down for a nap around 12:30. They slept for an hour or so which the run helped to wear them down and then we spent the next couple hours outside in the pool. The water was chilly but refreshing despite the constant afternoon heat which was in the 90's. They wear this chest floatie which allow them to be in the water and pretend to swim. They now have no fear of the water and jump at will into the deep end. I actually swam for a bit myself after sunbathing. They of course had snacks and pop sickles.
We served them supper at 5:30 with a meal of chicken thighs I had grilled the night before along with Jasmine rice and black beans. They ate well and grandma gave them each a cookie for dessert. Since they were in the pool they wanted to skip baths and so we let them stay up an extra half hour to finish watching the LION KING movie. Well I hear them awakening and its 6 AM, OH WELL a new day has started, LATER
