From Mommy:
I love having a group of women who are going through the same things as me. We can talk baby without boring anyone, and I get some great ideas and advice from them. I should really get a picture one of these times, but when we are in the moment no one is thinking about a camera. There is just so much activity! At one point we tried to get the littlest guys, Preston and William, to take a nap in the nursery. I was having visions of twins as I was up there trying to get Preston to sleep. William was cooing in the pack and play while Preston was fussing and refusing to calm down: two little boys - a few days apart in age. It was so cute, but I really do NOT envy moms of twins. I can't even imagine what that would be like on a daily basis.
After the play date I cleaned up the house, and by the time John got home it had gotten pretty warm inside. I swear I never would have noticed, but the second he walked in he realized the air conditioning wasn't working. Considering we have consistently had temperatures in the 90's and above without an end in sight, John went into crisis mode. He called around to a million different air conditioning people. Apparently, us and thousands of other people are having AC issues, but he found a guy who would come out right away. All this was happening while I was trying to get out of the house to go visit Shawn and Amy and to go swimming in their pool. Finally the AC guy came, fixed the bad capacitor, and we were on our way out the door right when Preston should have been going to bed. He slept in the car on the way over to go swimming, and was surprisingly a happy guy the whole time we were out. He really does love swimming. We came home to a chilled down house. Crisis averted!
Tomorrow we are going to another pool party! We have been looking forward to this one for months. All of the Bach Sopranos and our families are having a picnic-pool party. I'm sure all of our Bach friends are excited to see Preston again.
It's been nice to be home for the weekend. We haven't had a lot of time at home yet this summer. John worked on re-sanding our patio, and I got to take a nap with Preston this afternoon. I also went shopping with Debbie this morning. It's been really nice.
