Superpowers To The Rescue!
Day off #3:
I think this whole posting my days off has made me realize how little my family slows down. We slept till the clock said 0800 and then laid in bed till 0900 playing with Charlie. After 0900 she gets all cranky for her breakfast. Poor thing...you would think we starve her! All 23lbs of her. Yes, that is her current weight. I took her today to the Convenience care to have her ears checked and of course she has an ear infection!
We didn't let that slow us down though. We all went down to Milton and walked the Foothills trail all the way to the Safeway in Orting. I loved being out with my family, even though we had to continuously remind the kids about the rules of the road...or trails. It was perfect walking weather. I hope everyone is up to the hike on Monday. I guess I need to tell Shanny that I need to borrow the back pack (and pay her my half)!
We stopped by and saw Granny. She just got back today from N.D. and wanted to kiss the kids. Kisses, and a few bears later then we were headed back home.
Dinner was homemade miso soup (with tofu and potatoes) and fat free grilled cheese sandwiches on whole wheat bread. The kids raved about the soup and even requested seconds. Gosh, I love having kids that will eat anything! The dinner conversation went something like this....
Valerie: If you could have any superpower, what would it be?
Mom: Telepathy, so I could hear what everyone was thinking.
Valerie: Gills, so I could swim underwater!
Dad: Invisibility. I need an invisibility ray!
Ethan: Blending. I could glob into an object and become that object. Like a microwave with one eye that could talk and hear. That's what I would be.
