Weekend with the Boys

Jenny escaped to a scrapbooking event Saturday, so it was just me and the boys. We watched a few movies, played with some Legos (I got out my "stash" and shared it with Rowan), and played some hide-n-seek before going to McDonalds playland for lunch. After lunch it was another movie (new Backyardigans) and some computer time.

All in all they were pretty good. Not too much complaining or fighting, and so we went to Culvers for ice-cream. A good day for Dad too.

Because of choir at church, I pretty much had the boys Sunday. I think Jenny was getting nervous about school work. We went to Lifetime Fitness and they played while I worked out. Then, we all went swimming which beaks down into them jumping on me from the side of the pool. Oh well - still fun. The boys just can't seem to listen after a session in the pool, so some angry words from me required to get their attention.

When one biy can't listen, it seems to be contagious. And when Dominic decides not to listen, but rather narrate his thoughts it is very difficult to get back on track.

Anyway next weekend will be at least a swap. Saturday is Free Comic Book Day, and hopefully a trip on my own to see Iron Man in the Theatres. Sunday is a choir trip for Jenny, so at least a half-day with the boys for me.
