Life With The Shirleys: did I sleep through spring?

did I sleep through spring?

It is June 1st and the temps are already in the mid-90s. So I am assuming the couple of weeks of nice weather was Spring? And now it is over? Good to know...and if it is this hot June 1st, I don't even want to think what August will be like.

Temps like this with a 3 year old and 1 year old means needing to find lots of fun things to do indoors...with air conditioning. It is almost too hot to even enjoy the pool especially since neither of my children can swim. After lunch, we headed to an indoor bounce house place and let the kids run free. Love Bug loved the ball pit and the big blocks. I took her down the slide once and she didn't love it (as you can see from the photo below). The Mayor always loves the slides and did a great job of playing with Love Bug. He hung out in the block section with her and helped her build towers (well, he built the towers and she knocked them down, he would rebuild, she would knock them down...). A birthday party for some older kids started kicking up and it got a little chaotic with all of these older kids and my little peanuts...so we left and got some ice cream.

We've just finished up dinner and it will be early bedtimes for all. We are all wiped out. And I need to think of some creative things to do for the rest of the week. Weather report says it is just going to get hotter...yuck.
