Today miss Greta got to go to CEDAR POINTE! I kid you not! She just got home about an hour ago (it is midnight now) and is fast asleep so I am sure more details will come tomorrow...but today we had some fun with the boys, even if it was a slow, slow day without our Greta angel.
We emptied out the pool and refilled it with water--when it was about 6 inches deep with icy cold hose water, Casey asked if he could go play in it, and then Mickey wanted in, too--they ended up playing in the pool then entire time it filled! Cold water from the hose! Can you imagine?? Brrrr
Charlie and I stayed outside with them, as it was no longer the deathly torturous oven of steam that it has been for the last week, but more like a lovely summer's day. He totted around, he fetched the balls and toys that they threw out of the pool for them by throwing them back in, he played with the bunnies as they hopped and munched in their outdoor enclosure for the frst time in a week (it has been too hot! We have let them play in the hallway instead, indoors) He rode in his baby swing, and we all ate about 20 freezer pops.
One thing we did fun this morning was wash some money. The boys beg me to do this often. Strange! but they really love to.
Mickey has a black eye from his bike handles :(
He has a special technique when washing money, which includes a triple rinsing. He taught us all his elaborate pressing and drying process and was convinced that he could do this for other people, as a service, to make their money look nicer.
Casey has the most money, 12 dollars. He uses baby soap rather than Dawn. Can you stand that his arms are still so babyish and plump? I want to eat him.
Charlie has decided that his high chair is made of burning lava and instead craves sitting in a regular chair. Which puts his little face right at table level. He wanted to eat the shiney pretty "MUM-MEE" so badly but, seeing as I informed him it was indeed, "Blucka", he resisted.

What is it with lava?
My two younger kids like to pretend that the floor is burning hot lava, and so they have to jump out of it all the time or they will DIE! Gracious! Actually I think it is adorable and very imaginative. It must be a theme of boyish childhood. :)
must be a boy thing, yes, mine do the same thing! aren't boys cool?? luv my girl of course, but never get over the differences in them..
Ruthie also refuses a high chair - or a booster (the Yellow Pages). She prefers to sit at eye level with the table - just like Charlie!
Isn't money laundering a crime? :-)
That's too cute!
