Weekending

Dorothy has been dying for this particular Starbucks cup— anyone else have a kid who is obsessed?Apparently she sees lots of them (sparkly Starbs straw cups) at the dance studio?  She had another excellent week of not screaming at us (LOLOLOL), so she snagged one at long last.
Coop got tired of waiting for me to make puppy chow (NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN BECAUSE I CANNOT NOT EAT IT LIKE A RAVENOUS WOLF, INTUITIVE EATING BE DARNED), so he just made it himself.
Cooper and Minnie were SO CUTE at the pool on Saturday night




Despite having a bunch of housework to do, we went to family float day on Sunday morning. Minnie was a YUGE fan.




The rest of us were a liiiiiiiittle cold. Ben always has a parka in his car from hockey, though, so he was OK. LOL LOL LOL.

My mom and my aunt came to visit, and we had a blast. Plus they got to see a summer league dive meet that jack won, shattering his record by 40 points— so awesome.






It was a lovely weekend. Can’t wait for this week to punch us in the face.

  1. I laughed at your surprise punchline, haha. But I hope this week harbors no punches, is kind to all of you, and you all continue to have more sweet, summer fun!

  2. It was chilly yesterday morning! And so very rainy. We had a party for one of Paul's classmates. There was a sheltered area where we could hang out while the kids ran around in the rain. But man they were a mess. I had to take their shoes off in the car and Phil and I carried them into the house and straight up to the bath afterwards. My little routine lover, Will, was so very confused as baths usually happen after dinner and are followed by a sliced apple + wheel of fortune. We had an out of place bath after the park/ice cream on Saturday, too, since the kids were hot messes after playing in the sand.

    1. Chex has re-branded it "muddy buddies" but it's the same delicious mess: https://showmetheyummy.com/best-puppy-chow-recipe-aka-muddy-buddies/

  4. What a delightful prize for not screaming. I don't think I would earn my prize this week, so D is doing better than me!
