Now, we'll back up a few days to Monday. The kids' school had a PTO fundraiser at Cold Stone. Maybe I'm a bad Mom, but that was the first time the kids have ever been there. They are getting better at eating cold things, but ice cream still isn't a must-have treat for them. Ryleigh dug all of the M&Ms out of hers and maybe had one bite of ice cream. RJ also dug out all of his M&Ms, but at least he ate about half of his. The best part was seeing friends outside of school.
Jip came home Tuesday evening. Yay! It's only for 8 nights, but we'll take it.
After the showcase on Saturday, Hannah and Aless came over so the kids could play in the inflatable pool and toss water balloons around. It was above 90 Saturday and Sunday, with indexes closer to 100. So, the water play was a welcome diversion. Jip got in the action, too--though I'm not sure it was completely willingly.
Ryleigh also decided that the tub for the water balloons was a good place to cool off.
RJ has 3 days of school left. Ryleigh has 2 days left. Crazy!
Jip gets to be here for RJ's Kindergarten graduation, but then it is off to the boat that evening for an early morning departure for another couple weeks at sea.
As always, pics to come of the upcoming milestones. Until next time, cheers!
