What a week


I have had a crappy/good week. It all started Monday on a good note. The kiddo's and I went to the zoo with some good friends and had a blast. I really love days at the zoo that are cool and
very few people. Who ever thought to go to the zoo as a Mid -summer time activity is NUTS! So much more fun when it's cool outside. Oh and the kids were great too.
Before the zoo was swimming lessons. This is Cora the way she looks the entire time. She can't help herself she always has to be bobbing up and down in the water. She's part fish.

My Favorite picture of the whole day.
Up there above Dawson's head is the King Vulture. The only animal Dawson asked to see that day.
Tuesday was one of those crappy/good days. It started out with a phone call that our stove would be here in 30-40 minutes. Great, except my kitchen and laundry room are a mess. So I started to clean and BAM! There goes my back. And it was only about 5 minutes later that the stove showed up, not 30!
Oh well I will never see the hot Polynesian that delivered my stove again so he can make fun of my messy kitchen all he wants. I love my stove in case you were wondering. It is beautiful and has five burners and a griddle! I LOVE IT!
This is a perfect example of what I did all week. Dang Back!
Wednesday, I made a trip to the chiropractor. Ow! It hurt but helped at the same time. He said it wasn't really my spine that was out it was my muscles spasming. So he signed me up for a visit the next day including a massage. Yea! That was a first for me and it was great, until I went to stand up and then it hurt worse than it did when I went it. The doc said it was just making my muscles spasm again and it did calm back down and not hurt so bad.
Thursday, after my apt and Cait's piano lesson's which she is doing great at by the way, we went to Kaysville to get my nieces for a sleepover. Five little girls is a handful! They had so much fun but man they are needy. I want this, can I have that, but I want what she has! It was a blast though. We watched Princess and the Frog and went to bed late.
Friday, swimming with the girlies! Great fun and Miss Cait swam the width of the swimming pool all by her self. David was glowing with pride and Cait was exhausted. She was rewarded with a Wimsy Pet and took a really good nap. I had a blast playing with Cora. She is such a fish and was under the water more than she was above the surface. We would both go under and she thought it was great she could see me through the goggles. She even giggled under water which was funny. Poor Buddy was mad though, he stayed in Kaysville and didn't get to go swimming, so we are going to have to go this week again. I'm not complaining.
Saturday, I was not about to stick around home trying to keep quiet on a Saturday, so the kids and I went shopping and playing yesterday. We needed to find some school shoes. No luck at the Gateway. Every shoe Cait liked was not in her size. Very frustrating. But they had fun playing in the fountain, so that works. We also went to Liberty Park and played in the water there.
We weren't there for long cause we needed to get a move on, but it was fun. We did finally find shoes at Target, but we had to go clear to Centerville to do that. We came home with swollen feet and very hungry! Pizza solved the hunger problem and kicking my feet up solved the other problem.
Crazy Kiddo's
The only picture I got of all three of them playing in the fountain and the water was off for the moment!
I actually pulled this picture from a video I took on accident. I didn't realize my camera was on video, so I Googled how to get a still shot from a video. So easy and there you go!
And I was so excited. I won another blog give away. I won a Scrabble Tile pendant :). Okay it's a little bigger than a Scrabble tile but still it made me smile!
So it wasn't a horrible week. We had fun and had life issues so I can't complain too much.
