A FUN DAY!

We had a very fun day on Monday. First off I went to the high-risk doctor and that went fine. The appointment was for 8:00am so I asked Leigh if he minded staying with the kids and going into work late, and he was fine with that. The high-risk doctor is 5-10min from our house and it was a quick appointment, so I was home by 8:30, which was nice. I had the kids pick up the living room and family room and then they got their swimsuits on and took them to a splash pad park thing not far from the house. There was one other day I was going to take them, but we drove by and it was packed with kids, so I thought if we went in the morning there wouldn't be too many other people. There were a couple other kids there when we got there, but by the time we left the parking lot was full and that little place was hopping! They seemed to have a great time! Timothy played on the little playground area while the others played in the water, and it wasn't until the end and I made him get in that he finally got wet and enjoyed the water part too.

After the water park we came home, they got baths, ate lunch, and then we watched a movie together. After that it was nap time and then supper time. After supper I took Luke and Emily to the library's summer reading program kick off. THAT was quite entertaining! They held it on the front lawn and had a DJ playing loud annoying music, a photo booth, a goody bag and then they had the kids hula hooping, doing the limbo and the chicken dance!! It was hysterical. Luke and Emily had  a great time because they got to learn how to hula hoop! Anyways, when it was almost over we went inside to check out some more books. I kept waiting for them to do something more organized, but it was basically just playing! Emily was really cute getting her books. It was only the second time we had been to this library, but she knew right where the books were that she wanted to check out and had them ready to go in under five minutes. Luke was still picking out his first one! :) This library is the Plantation library and isn't far from our house, so I'm hoping that we'll get to it more often since it's not out of the way.
Over all the kids seemed to really enjoy themselves!
