It was very warm ... according to Seattleites it was straight darn hot.
Back at the library and this time brother and sister came along. Sydna helped pick out a few books.
It had been a while since we've been to Panda Express. The orange chicken was as yummy as I remembered it to be. Mmm! This guy only ate rice and noodles, lame.
The first half of this week looked a lot like last week. Riley played with his water table again in the evening.
The temperature dropped a bit on Tuesday. Not having the hot blaring sun coming in through the windows in the morning made a huge difference. Glad for the clouds. It was actually a pleasant day.
Yesterday I finally got Riley a table and two stools for his new playroom. I'm getting two more furniture pieces for the playroom and that'll be it. I don't want to crowd his space. I also don't want this room painted. I'll just add color to it by adding colorful accents and wall art.
Earlier today I made chocolate covered s'mores, chocolate covered strawberries and pineapple. It was my very first time to ever make something like this so naturally I was super excited {and still am} and totally looking forward to eating these yummies tomorrow when we're out celebrating Independence Day.
For the past couple of days this kid has been quite naughty. He's been getting in trouble and even after he gets told not to do whatever dangerous thing he was doing he will try to do it again. Gonna have to start spanking him every now and then and definitely more timeouts will have to happen for this one in order for this child of mine to start listening.
Stopped by McDonald's this evening for a chocolate covered cone {Jacob and the kids got one, I wasn't in the mood}. Jacob's a huge fan of those chocolate covered cones. We go to McDonald's just to get these cones about every third day. I would prefer a bear claw but, you know I haven't seen any around here now that I think about it. Gonna have to google and see where I can find them ... and if only a Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory store wasn't so far I would totally buy a caramel apple about twice a week.
Right now I'm watching "I still know what you did last Summer". I really miss watching my scary/suspenseful movies whenever I want to. Now I have to wait until Riley's asleep.
Well, tomorrow is July 4th. We have always either spent Independence Day at the beach or out somewhere celebrating it. Partaking in all that fun exhausting waking up early to finish with the preparations stuff and sometimes chaotic moments is all part of the experience. This is the one holiday I will not spent it indoors or at home. I love to be out on Independence Day and see parades and watch people dress in their patriotic best. It's just so fun and I truly am proud of being an American. I love the U.S.A {just not the current president, lol}. Whenever I hear all the patriotic music I get all teary eyed with goose bumps and all, seriously! I would have loved to have been a Coast Guard but you know ... life happened. God had other plans for me.
Hope you all stay safe and enjoy this awesome holiday!
Happy Independence Day!!!
Maybe there's something in the air- Hudson has been so naughty lately, also--driving me crazy!!!!
