this week has been pretty dull. in a good way. i looked at my calendar at the end of memorial day weekend and was reminded, duh, i don't have a life right now. so why would i have anything on my calendar? i had planned for this moment for as long as i can remember. a summer with no work, no doctor's appointments, and even no lunch or coffee dates with friends that i cherish so much. so for the first time in a long time... i felt truly free to get bored with my boys.
first, we went for a run.
i told chris i went for a run and he was confused because we have 3 boys and a double stroller. so i explained that i left austin home since he's so good as using my iphone. after he believed me (sort of reflecting poorly on me as a mom) he didn't so much mind the fact that after the stroller filled, i just starting throwing boys on top of it.
this picture is called "where there is a will, there is a way."
we also went to the pool. on a day it was supposed to rain. we had nowhere else to be, so i figured, who cares if it rains... we'll just leave. instead we had the entire pool to ourselves on an absolutely gorgeous warm and partly sunny morning.
i went to a night cubs game with chris. i watched a little day time television. we went to petsmart just to watch the fish. i went to starbucks without rushing my boys to get in and out as quickly as possible.
we got pajamas on while it was still light and then went outside to eat ice cream and hit golf balls.
i could get used to this pace of life...
at least until next week.
