Recapping the week on the blog! Summer week 3, blood draw, early day, swim team, watching airplanes, and fathers’ day.
Monday June 10
We had a blood draw Monday morning for Huxley and I. He is in a research study, where every few months he has to have a blood draw and for this visit, I had to get a blood draw also. So, I went first, and then Huxley went, and he did not cry one tear! He was amazing! The nurses are amazing too, they gave us matching band aids too. I was shocked how well he did! We got home and ate some lunch, then Huxley went down for his nap. Hadley played outside with the neighbor kids, and Hadley showed me how she taught herself to ride a bike! She doesn’t have a bike currently, because we donated her old princess bike that she outgrew. So she taught herself how to ride a bike on the neighbor’s kid’s bike!
Tuesday June 11
Swim team practice in the morning, and then softball practice in the evening for Hadley. When I went to bed, I noticed a deer just chilling in the backyard.
Wednesday June 12
Swim team practice in the morning, and I walked around the parking lot with Huxley in the stroller to move my booty. After our walk, we come back into the pool area and Huxley managed to fall and get a scrape on his knee. He falls a lot poor kid. After Huxley woke up from his nap, Kevin took the kids to the pool. I was supposed to go to the Reds game with some girlfriends, but things fell through as they tend to do when I have time to be child less! Oh well.
Thursday June 13
Had an early start to my Thursday, I left my house at 5am to pick up my mom for her minor cataract surgery. The number of times old people change seats baffles me, it’s crazy! After I dropped my mom off at her house, I met Kevin up at the pool for swim team practice so he could leave and go work a detail. After swim team, we went to a local smoothie place for story time. The owner comes in and sings songs and reads a story to the kids. Huxley loves the smoothies there! Hadley just thinks they are okay. And then later on in the day, Hadley had a swim meet. She swam freestyle and breaststroke.
Friday June 14
Swim team was cancelled, sometimes they cancel it the day after a swim meet. We’ve been sleeping in a lot this summer, it’s been great! I did my face mask cream and eye masks. Love them! And then we went to Sams Club and got a few things. Note to self, next time get the kids an ICEE at the beginning of the trip rather than at the end. Huxley would be way more occupied. The kids played outside for a little bit. We changed the fish tanks water; Huxley gets so excited and doesn’t understand why he can’t hold the fish! After Huxley’s nap, we headed to watch the airplanes land and take off. Checked it off the summer bucket list.
Saturday June 15
Softball scrimmage for Hadley, it was a hard loss, but they lost. Kevin stayed home with Huxley since he worked at the firehouse the day before and needed some sleep. After the softball game, we headed home and got ready to hit the pool. The water was a little cold, but it felt good. We brought some steaks up, and Kevin grilled them on the charcoal grill. After Huxley went to bed, we gave Kevin his Father’s Day cards. And then we went outside and talked with some neighbors.
Sunday June 16
Started the day with a YouTube workout. After Huxley’s nap, we headed over to my parents for dinner. Kevin was at the firehouse today. We played outside a little bit, and just hung out. It was a calm day!
