Today was sweltering hot...too hot to venture outside for me anyway. R5, met with repeated refusals to pay soccer in the garden resorted to some inventive indoor energy release on his own.
Who knew a couple of pillows in a pile could be so exciting?
Next excitment was the VERY satisfying purchase of a Thomas Magnadoodle for $10! Couldn't believe it when we spotted it at 75% off, the last one on the shelf. Of course shop assistant knew nothing about this reduction and took considerable assertiveness by Hubby to persuade him. Well worth it! O8 and R5 actually spent time drawing together and didn't come to blows.
Have to admit I enjoy the odd doodle myself...
And on such a hot afternoon who could resist a nice cool yoghurt...especially one they feed to themselves. Suffice to say a bath was required afterwards.
And the day ended with Grandma and Grandpa coming over for a roast dinner. The kitchen was like a sauna, but when it was ready to eat - YUM. Happy kids, happy parents. The close to a simple but good day.
