So, I'm off work for a few days and I will have both, (well all 3) boys with me the whole time. I am looking forward to spending time with all of them. I am however going to have to practice patience. Between all 3 of them being crazy hyper all the time I think it might be more calming to be at work. But I'm optimistic! I think as long as I keep them busy the whole time, maybe we will not get upset or crazy with each other!
With that said, we are going to slip n' slide, swim, watch movies, play outside, hopefully do some fireworks, have food off the grill, play with cousins, go to the park, and whatever else I can think of. I'm going to try to teach my boys that playing outside is way more fun than video games. A hard thing to do I know, but it's driving me crazy that they get "board" when we make them play outside! My sister and I used to play outside all day, until it started to get dark! We never got board and we never wanted to come inside! We even ate outside. My kids have so much energy you would think they would be the same way. But thanks to video games, they have no imagination. It's sad really. I do now regret ever getting the video games, but you want your kids to "fit in" and have what all the other kids have. So I know I'm to blame for most out it, but I don't think it's to late. I think I can turn this around! I hope I can anyway.
As I'm typing this my youngest is running around saying, "Look at me, I'm half man half bird!!!" I know it's not to late for him! He's to funny!!! My oldest, on the other hand is just so crazy! He's either running around hitting and kicking (playing not fighting) or sitting in front of his game. I'll let you know how this all turns out. Right now I must get off the computer as the boys are getting restless!!!
