A Perfect Day To Monkey Around

Really I meant to post this two days ago (Monday), because that’s the day I’m talking about, but I seem to be “a day late and a dollar short” on a lot of things lately. :)

We woke up to the sound of rain yesterday. I like those kind of days. The t.v. stayed off, we did lots of school, and we met Ashley and the kiddos at Monkey Joes at 11:30.  The kids were excited to see eachother. Since Ashley has been SO sick, we haven’t been able to get together as much as usual. By the time they put their shoes in the shoe cubbies, we didn’t see them again for a while. Unfortunately, Jonathan is often referred to as Curious George, and if Ashley doesn’t see him for more than a minute or two, her radar goes off and she knows he’s likely into trouble…well, she was right! This is what we found when we went lookin’ for our sweet little monkey (who’s daddy just happens to be a basketball coach :)

And again, a few minutes later, Ashley heard his little cry for help as he got stuck right at the end of the obstacle course:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

…looking back, I realize that a good friend would’ve jumped in there and rescued him so that his pregnant, nauseous momma didn’t have to…but she’s so quick, I didn’t even have time to offer…honest!! :)

After Monkey Joes, the boys and I were trying to figure out what to do about lunch…we had NO groceries in our house and did not feel like going shopping. We almost NEVER go to restaurants…especially just me and the little boys. But this day, we decided on Salsa’s (local Mexican restaurant). We had such a great time and really probably spent what we would’ve spent to feed four people at a fast food joint…the boys all three shared a kids meal because it’s too much for just one kid. Owen LOVES salsa. He eats it with chips, but only uses the chip as the scooper…he doesn’t actually take bites of the chip! :)

Then, Joshua begged me to take a picture of his FULL belly, so here it is. I wish that’s what my belly looked like when I was full!! LOL! :)

A great day with friends and a sweet little “date” with my loves.
