Fun City!!


Well, Charlie and I went on a playdate to the movies...we thought! We got there before the others showed up and they had four huge youth groups already there scattered all over the place. They had a seat here, two seats there and no where for us mommies and kiddos to sit together. So, we decided to go elsewhere and do the movies next week with a better stategy. We went to Fun City instead. Charlie thought he had died and gone to heaven. The kids had a ball. We stayed there for three hours...THREE! We couldn't believe we were there for that long. Charlie played hard the whole time. He didn't even stop to eat. Maybe it was the tub of popcorn that I got him that did him in. When Charlie found out that we weren't going to watch a movie he was upset!! So we compromised with a tub of popcorn and I still had to drag him out of there. Anyways...I was a bit skeptical about going to Fun City because I always thought of it as Germ City...but they renovated the facility and made it more spacious so it wasn't bad at all. Again...I had to drag the boy out of there to leave for naptime. He loves playing!! What a life!

Anyhow, this past Sunday Charlie went on his first slip-n-slide. It was hilarious!! He paid more attention to the water hose than anything. The water was so cold. His poor little hand was purple by the time he was finished. He came up to me and said..."done...shower please!" for the warm water. Saturday we went to our annual POA pool party. Charlie was swimming here and there and telling everyone "hi" (he's not shy). The grown-ups were playing water volleyball and it didn't even phase Charlie when they would dive for the ball and splash him. He thought it was funny. We had a good time. I love our subdivision! Of course you have those who don't want to be talked to but for the most part everyone is so...nice here.

Charlie is doing well at school. He is doing much better adjusting to naptime there. I try to get him up at 7am so that by the time naptime comes around he'll be willing to go down. Well, telling you about naptime is making me tired. Good night for now...
