Melissa is waaay tired after an afternoon of swimming. The kids loved the pool. They all swam for almost three hours!! That is a long time when you are little. They also slept really good that night. I am thinking I should do this more often. Oh no, wait I work full time now, so we will do this less often. :(

Melissa did NOT like the parade. It was too loud for her. In fact she is terrified of fireworks!! Last year she was laughing at them, this year she was crying. She was so scared of the noise that she asked to go to bed, I think she just shut down to cope. Melissa would hold her hands over her mouth and shake when she heard the noise. Maybe next year she will be laughing about them again.

This was the only pic I could get of the three kids together. They looked so cute in their coordinating tee shirts. Later in the parade they were all waving their little flags. It was adorable, of course I missed the moment with the camera.

Since I now work full time the postings, which were never regular to begin with, will become even more irregular. After all I am back to the "grind" of the working world. So on my days off I run around getting errands done, then groceries, then laundry. Once this is all completed it is time to go back to work again. Ron and I work opposite schedules, no days off together. I will say that sucks!! But it allows the babies to only have a sitter for three days rather than five. So I think it is worth it. Speaking of which, the sitter is AMAZING!! She adores the kids, tends to them wonderful, cleans the house and does the laundry!! The house has never been cleaner!! I am not giving out her name, I am terrified someone will steal her from me!! :)

When I actually get the kids out to do something, maybe if the errands are ran, dinner made and cleaned up, laundry completed, quality time with hubby done and babies are sleeping I will post another blog........one of these days.......
