We got the pool out! It's officially (almost) summer. The boys were beside themselves. I baricaded Ben inside with me and opened the windows. He keeps catching his little fingers in the screen door. He's smashed it up pretty good a few times too.
Speaking of smashing things, warmer weather and my boys in shorts...... Andrew has biffed it enough times already with his bare knees on the concrete to have both knees scabbed up. Adam has one side scabbed, Ben is producing rubber on his knees (plus perpetual grey streaks), and poor Cole has an ouch on his upper thigh from his shot at the drs a couple days ago. He has a bullet-speed lunge, and the nurse, while attempting to not poke his hand, scratched his leg as she was pulling the needle out. So he has a little scar there too now.
Poor boys. I also made them eat their broccoli salad before they could get seconds of their dinosaur-chicken nuggets. It just never ends sometimes.
But, their drawers are now all stocked with clothes that fit and that is appropriate for the summer weather. Yeah for me! Now, we move on to the toys, starting probably with the boxes I whisked away to the basement after the third day of them not putting them away. Hopefully, in a few weeks once school is out, Mike and I can finish Adam's room, move him and Ben back in, and start to store things where they actually belong.
