Last week felt so action packed that I really wanted us to do something as a family. While that SOUNDS nice. Summer in Arizona is kind of like Winter everywhere else. You just stay in until the Weather clears again. But for us its get up and get going and in before noon so we don't die.
We decided to try out the Mesquite groves pool. It looks a lot like the pool where my parents live but there were a lot more people. I really thought that Ty would LOVE that we are all going to the pool with him. But that morning before we got ready I asked him if he wanted to go swimming and he was so upset.
I think it has to do with his swimming lessons, so we made a parental decision that we are changing him back to the mom and Tot class. Why traumatize the boy who likes water. Oh and as a side note into that, GUESS who is getting water therapy!
So anyway we get to the pool, get the HUGE wad of cash out that it will cost us to swim ( 3.50 for ALLL of us. 50 cents for Ty and a buck fifty for the rest of us. ) And off we go. We lather Ty up with Sunscreen, lather me and Dallas up and off we go.
It as a lot of fun. Ty was not so happy about all the kids but he dealt. We took him all over, we let him jump off the side. He was happier with Dad than mom.
Because we had to get out and reapply sunscreen we just decided to go. The temp on the wall was 110 when we got out. NOT KIDDING. It was HOT. We get home and decided that Dallas was burned. He has such a bad burn on his head that he has blisters through out his head. He kinda got a little heat stroke and was not feeling well. We let him rest and Ty and I played and made our house a mess.
Today was just a lazy happy day for all of us. Dallas let me sleep in, we switched and he slept. I started cleaning and picking up when he was awake and Ty, who has been not very happy unless MOM is around started crying a little to much. The last straw was him running into the wall a few times and Melting down. So I made him lay down. With the intention that once he got to sleep I would finish the kitchen.
Yep you got it. I fell right to sleep with him. What I LOVED. My sweet baby cuddled right up with me and I got to hold him for his whole nap.I have really been craving that baby cuddle ( even with a big boy)
My amazing hubby cleaned up the kitchen ( which is both of our least favorite things to do) and I go the rest of the house done. Dallas has to go into work tomorrow and so I made sure clean clothes were there.
Ty is still asleep in his bed for now. Dallas is sleeping next to me.
Its days like this that I think of all the memories that are made.
Things like, the way Tyler smells, the sweet time we get when he comes in in the morning, the kisses and laughs from Dallas and Tyler. The smiles we get. The payment of mommy hood in kisses.
