So much accomplished this week. Dentist appointments? Check. Chiro appointment? Check. Haircut? Check. Powerskating done? Check. Swimming lessons done? Check. School supplies bought (including running shoes)? Check.
Check. Check. Check!
(Big relief to finally find a pair of size 2 running shoes that the Maxter liked and fit well. I left it a bit too late. Sportchek was sold out of size two in anything remotely acceptable. I accidentally happened upon the Shoeper Store and had success. Got the last size two in these Saucony's and Max is thrilled.So is his mama! Whew.)
Isaiah was over to play with Max one afternoon this week. Oh a whim, I sent them out on the trampoline with a bowl of water balloons.
Total Success.
It kept them entertained ALL AFTERNOON!
The secret is to use thick/good quality balloons. Do not fill them near capacity with water. This will make them very hard to break. So it turned into a bit of a battle for the two of them to get them to break and provided hours of fun.
(I made a quick escape after this photo to avoid being hit with the balloon from Max!)
And a glimpse of daily swimming lessons:
This weekend we had initially planned to go camping. It didn't work out as planned and that's ok so we'll be sticking around home. Tim & Anna and the twins will be coming over tomorrow afternoon/evening and we are looking forward to that. Tent camping might occur in the backyard with Keith and Max at some point over the weekend. And I've heard rumours that the fire ban is back on?....I need to check that out. If it isn't on yet, I'm sure it's going to be shortly.
One more week left before we hit that back-to-school week. Better get making my lists and checking them twice! :)
