day 113 - a trip to the park $

I took a couple of pictures today before I got home. I could show you the picture I took of the Burger King menu board when I zipped through the drive thru at lunch. Or the picture I took of my iPod on my desk, providing a little bit of extra light in my dark little office. I don't have any windows and it's been a dark couple of days since the bulb in my 90s floor lamp aka "the sun" threw its last rays of light. Now it's glaring fluorescent lights or dim desk lamp mood lighting. Today I went with the mood lighting but must find a second light sometime soon before I destroy my eyes.

Anyway, I will spare you the filler and get to after dinner. We went to the park.

Ava decided she wanted to ride her scooter. Until she slipped off of it. Somehow it was my fault from ten feet away. She had tantrums the entire way down the street. Note to self: if you ever become one of those "what I wouldn't give to go back to when my kids were young" people, remember this moment. Four so far? Not so fabulous.



The kids had fun at the park. The boys were in their element and Ethan was right into the pictures. He is the master of "Cheeeeeeeeeeeese".



Trying something a little different on this one below. Not sure if I like it or not. I think I have to sit on it for a bit.



Anyway, we got everybody all set to go and organized and the one thing we forgot ended up burning us. Six little words: "Mommy, I have to go pee". Crap.

Thank god my parents only live a couple of blocks from the playground.
