It is so enjoyable having little Parker here from Monday to Wednesday. I was unsure about how it was going to go, juggling naps and cuddles. Despite the minor hiccups though, this experience is solidifying my desire to have more kids!
The little rascals are so cute playing side by side with the pots and pans I piled on the floor for them today while I rushed through baking some muffins (with too much salt). I also love lunchtime when they chat to each other incessantly (probably about the food quality) and reach out for each other’s hands.
I took the girls for a walk today in our Craig’s list $40 double stroller. It feels like pushing a shopping cart compared to the swanky BOB stroller we have for Little E.
It was such a gorgeous afternoon and our walk was so much fun. We went with my friend Tami and her adorable twin girls. I felt like a force on the sidewalk as we paraded along, Jake leading the pack. I had a strange sense of pride about our little brood, until Jake decided to defecate on the sidewalk at the corner of Kingsway and King Edward (a very busy intersection) on route to the bus stop. He spread his offering along the span of the walk, humiliating my pride immediately.
Shortly after that rather disturbing experience I realized that it was 5:30, not 4:30 as I had thought – Parker’s mom would have been at my house 15 minutes ago!! Thank goodness Daddy C was home, holding down the fort when I arrived and P’s mom had gone grocery shopping – this is a sign of summer approaching…long days!
I will tell you about my weekend tomorrow, when I hope to have a little snippet of my solo for you to hear...
