Our enjoyable week

Last Sunday it was sooo warm that we went to Walmart and got the kids a little pool for the back yard.
 
 
Of course Grant had to get a new ball for outside because the inside balls can't get dirty. We inadvertently bought a HUGE one.


Grant loved it except when the wind would blow it out of the pool. It was like he thought it had a mind of it's own. Then Reagan would have to go get it for him. :-)

On Monday Grant had his Occupational Therapy appointment. They always come out to talk to me afterward and asked me if I noticed how Grant runs. I said yes, don't all 2 year olds run funny? She said they need to keep an eye on it. So we will see how that goes.

Then on Tuesday Reagan lost her second tooth. I saw that it was about to fall out. I reached out to wiggle it and she jumped back pulling it out. She didn't feel it come out and didn't know I had pulled it till she found it on her tongue.  Knowing that it was about to come out I ordered her some dinosaurs that she wanted. There were not going to be delivered until Wednesday though so we left her $5 from the Tooth Fairy and told her that Daddy would go to the store while he was at work and look for the dinosaurs, but she would have to give him her money. She was happy with that so Scott and Grant rushed home after swim class while I stayed back with Reagan. He got the package off the porch and opened it so she wouldn't know. Needless to say she was happy and none the wiser.

Grant is still not sleeping at school and is driving them crazy. They had to put him in a little side room all by himself because he won't be quiet while his friends are sleeping. So on those nights he crashes into bed at 6:30pm. His teachers said that he is great with all his friends at school and not too much of a problem otherwise.

Friday is was rainy so we stayed around the house and had a movie day. It was just nice to be able to sit around the house since we have been so busy lately.

Today (Saturday) Scott and I ran a 5K. We had to be downtown by 7:30am to register and the race started at 8am. The weather was so yucky. It was about 50 degrees, windy and sprinkling on and off. We didn't do as well as our last 5K, but at least we did it right? :-) It was really hard to keep running when the wind is blowing at you so hard. Afterward we took the kids to an Easter egg hunt at the church where Grant's Mother's Day Out program is. When we pulled up he kept saying "my school, my school." They had it inside, but the weather must have kept most of the kids away. When we were leaving Grant was whining because he had so many eggs that they kept falling out of his basket. He was even able to be picky and only pick up the eggs with patterns on them that he liked. Reagan got to see her friend Brian there and that made her even happier than just an egg hunt did.

So we had a great week. The weather is suppose to be a lot better this week with temperatures in the 70's so we will be trying to do a lot of outside stuff.
