Day 18
Children are great, but exhausting
June 7, 2023 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C
Today I woke up and ventured upstairs as I could hear 3 active children running around. I wandered upstairs and grabbed a bowl of lucky charms to eat with the kiddos. The kids were still a bit unsure of me but we went to the park and then I was a hit. I played basketball with Kai and Hudson, then we went back to the main park and I played many games with all the kids that were there. It was very fun. We came back and I sat with the older boys while they did some summer school work. They crushed it. We played some more indoor basketball, then soccer outside, pirates, golf. Hudson and I did a puzzle together #apprentice Then it was time to go to Kai's baseball game. I was requested to sit in the back between Kai and Hudson which was squishy but so nice that they wanted me too. At the game, we met with Stacy's parents which was nice to see them again. Hudson and I sat together on a chair and watched Kai play so well. He got the ball great and covered the field so well! We all sat and ate our PB&J's together which was fun. We headed back, Walker did a puzzle and the boys got ready for bed. Hudson and Walker wanted me to do bedtime which was such an honour!! Then we watched the NBA while Stacy made a cake because it's Hudson's birthday tomorrow.
I honestly don't know how Stacy does it all, the kids are the best but never seem to get tired!!Read more

Day 19
Hudsons 6th Birthday 🎈
June 8, 2023 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C
Today I woke up and came upstairs to birthday excitement. We had decorated the main space with Batman decorations as Hudson wanted a Batman themed day. We ate cinnamon rolls for breakfast, then I played downstairs with the boys for a bit. Walker clung to me this morning, we danced in the kitchen which was lovely. We came back up in time for Grandma and Grandpa on Stacy's side to arrive. We had some snacks, then had a pinata, then Wells cooked some steak for lunch. We also played pass the parcel!!! This isn't an American game but the boys requested it after seeing it on Bluey which was so funny. The boys are so active, especially Kai. He is constantly asking to play basketball on the small hoop behind the door. Wells accidentally broke it today and there were tears. It was then time for presents, Hudson got a really cool Batcave and Bat mobile which he loved so much. The boys all got bubble guns of some sort too which we used in the afternoon. Hudson also got a big boy bike and it was so cool to watch him push himself ride it even though he was scared. We then played Mario kart and I crushed Kai, he was not happy. Wells then almost beat me too. I played a bunch of games with the boys to wind down the afternoon. Wells, Stacy and I squeezed a card game in as well. Then it was time for dinner and chill, we all watched a show and l am once again exhausted from a day with the kiddos!!Read more

Day 22
Sunday Funday
June 11, 2023 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C
Today I woke up and Stacy made waffles which were so good. The boys played for a while and Wells showed me videos of different fireworks he is considering buying for the 4th of July. Literally 2 hours of watching and learning about fireworks, listening to the funny names which make them more appealing to the American market - between party bus, freedom flyers, wild wild willows and more it was crazy. We ate lunch and went to the fireworks shop. Entering the fireworks shop was a whole new world. There was stuff everywhere from small to big. Literally unicorns, tanks, turrets, boxes shaped like pizza, taco trucks anything and everything. We scoped out fireworks available this year and the owners told wells about the fireworks "off the shelf" which they aren't fully sure they are allowed to sell. We went home with a sword shaped sparkler and a small hamburger shaped box of fireworks.
At home, Hudson practiced for t-ball while I sat outside and got some sun. I tried a twin Bing which is a classic chocolate bar in Iowa. It was like a chocolate, peanuts and cherry which was actually quite nice. Then it was time to go to t-ball which was a home game so just down the road. We sat and enjoyed the home crowd, I got all the tea from Wells about the locals while Stacy coached Hudson's team. They range from 4-7, so the kiddos were all at different levels. Hudson played awesome though and Kai had fun playing with some friends from school. We came home, had dinner and are now just chilling.Read more
