Jay has been traveling quite a bit lately so this weekend we relaxed and played! Max enjoyed playing with culdesac buddies in his pool on the deck. Quickly the pool turned into a mud bath when they decided to pour water down the slide. Then they slid down into the mud puddle and rinsed off in the pool each time before they went down again. It was great fun to watch. The yard didn't appreciate it, but I guess it was worth the laughter.
On Saturday night Carter and Emerson spent the night with us. Amanda and Clay were still out of the country, so we tried to help them out with a sleep over at our house. Whew! Three kidos will wear you out. They played inside, outside, in the pool, in the bonus room, in the culdesac, down 'Cherry Hill Lane', and everywhere in between.
Sunday afternoon was spent relaxing at the Kelley's by the pool. Max and cuz Tristan jumped and swam all evening. It was nice to be lazy for a few hours before we had to hit the ground Monday with another trip week for Jay.
We spent Tuesday evening in the yard at dusk. Max had his net and bug container catching lightining bugs. He loves how they "blink". He caught 4 and put them in the container. They came inside for awhile to visit with Max. He was convinced they were going to sleep with him. (Just FYI, Jay is out of town . . which means Max is sleeping with me . .get it? The bugs were going to sleep with US, not just him.) Finally, I convinced him to let them back outside to go to bed iwth their Mamas. Whew! Close call on that one!
