BOAT


We got the boat out of storage last week. It sat in the driveway so we could get it ready for the water. All three kids love climbing in it while we work. Our little guy really really liked it! Every time I would back out of the garage he would repeat over and over "boat, boat". He would even wave and say "bye boat". So last night was launch night. We hooked up the trailer and truck and were ready to go. He did not want to get in the truck but the boat. Obviously no understanding of how this works. We drive to the marina, Mitch and the girls hop in the boat while me and C drive back around to the dock. We were afraid he would freak out on the moving boat and wanted both of us adults present. This was a mistake in some ways because he never understood that the boat came off of the trailer and into the water. We then met the rest of them at the dock and went for a ride (which I am certain was C's first ride ever). He loved it!


Now we just need to get the trailer out of the driveway and into storage somewhere. I am so tired of hearing "oh no, boat. Where'd it go? oh no, boat". He is obsessed!!!

space cadet

The other morning I was frustrated with Frances and while she was in time out I told her if she didn't shape up I would send her to the moon. She proceeded to cry even harder and wailed..."I don't even have any space clothes!"

Sounds like a good one to tell her future husband someday!
