This Week So Far

We've been trying to keep busy, as usual, this week. 

Yesterday we met Jen with Chase at Monkey Joe's.  I had two more passes that I had gotten for cheap that expired this week and wanted to use them.  I'm not a big fan of going there in the summer since the older kids are out of school, but it wasn't too bad (my boys only got runover a few times, and never too bad).


Carter was being a "sweet" big brother and took (pulled) Rylan down the slide with him.


This morning we went bowling again.  This time only the boys bowled and the guy working the counter made Carter wear bowling shoes (he wears the smallest size they have).  So the boys both bowled for free but the shoe rental cost $2.75 (still, not bad for 45 minutes of entertainment).

Carter really wanted to show off his shoes (he thought they were SO COOL).



(Carter convinced me on Sunday to put all the left over pirate tattoos on his arms and legs.  I think I was still half asleep when I said yes because this is way too many tattoos!)


When Carter got a spare, a couple of older men several lanes down that were part of a bowling league shuffled down to us to congratulate Carter and give him high fives.  It was really sweet and he felt pretty special.

Every time I had my back turned to help Carter, I'd turn back around to find Rylan struggling to carry his ball.  An 8 pound bowling ball is not easy for this little guy to carry!  Luckily he never dropped it!


After bowling we met Brian for lunch.  I decided after that to take the boys to the Brentwood Library for one of their summer programs that started at 1 pm and just put the boys down for a later nap.  Today's performer was Jill Thatcher, a ventriloquist.

The show was just okay.  However, the boys stayed interested the whole time so it couldn't have been too bad to them!
