Today was a great day for the most part. We started out with swimming lessons and since Grandma and Grandpa are in South Carolina J came out to the lessons with me and the kids. Evelyn and William had a great time swimming around with daddy. It is truly amazing how far they have come in such a short time.
After swimming we ran strait to Zoe's 4th birthday party at the Jump Club. The kids had a great time jumping around on the bounce houses. Though William had some trouble getting into the bounce house and fell hitting his head it was not a bad injury and he was soon over it. I did watch him closer from then on. Evelyn had a blast and is now even more excited to have her party there whenever it may be.
After the party we played for a little while before dropping Jason off at home and heading to the library. Evelyn had a great time playing on the computer and with Ms. Lori who was nice enough to walk over and meet us there and help us into the car - she really is gifted with kids!
Once we got home we walked over to david's house down the street and played with all of the leaves that they had raked up during the day it was quite the pile. Evelyn and William went crazy as only they can and even David got into it a little bit.
After dinner we all needed a break so we watched Dora's Halloween adventure. This is where things started to get fussy. The movie had one episode left and it was to late to watch making the tired kids cranky. Evelyn had a series of bad decisions leading to a meltdown. She decided that she didn't want to bath with her brother however once his bath was done she wanted him there. I couldn't get her into the tub without counting. then she refused to clean off. it was a fun scream fest. but we did get her calmed down eventually.
It is safe to say we all were ready for bed tonight!
