and popcorn from ceilings off our new {old} home,
the boys have had to entertain themselves alot.
we brought their bikes to the jobsite and gave them
boundaries and let them explore the neighborhood.
because finn is older and has always been a great
rule-follower, we've given him a pretty long leash these days.
{he's earned it...and keeps scout close and safe}
when the boys aren't riding their bikes,
they are running around in the backyard and playing in
their HQ {headquarters} which is currently a tree base on the hill,
but will someday be a clubhouse their dad will make for them.
first thing first, we've got to finish house projects.
even with these diversions, they have been getting a bit
tired of hanging out at the jobsite, so this past sunday,
their auntie jen took them to see wreck-it-ralph and
then to sea world for a few hours.
they rode the water roller coaster, journey to atlantis and
played in SNOW. apparently sea world of san diego
is making snow and kids in the park get to sled down a small hill.
that's certainly something they don't do every day in socal.
jen shared these sweet photos with me during the day:
jen literally had the boys from 10am to almost 10pm -
a very very long day. we are so grateful for her help.
she went above and beyond.
not having little people asking for food, our phones or if we
could go home allowed c and i to get alot accomplished -
so much that we didn't have to push back the ikea kitchen
installers again. the kitchen was installed today...most of it.
there's still so much to do, we had to push our
move-in date to friday, november 30th.
we hope by the time we move in, we will no longer
be referring to our new home as "the jobsite".
{i see why so many move to cookie cutter homes in the burbs.
it's so easy compared to fixers. fixers take so much work and patience...
not as easy as it was in our little diamond street cottage when we had a
smaller home to fix up and one kiddo}. whew!!
