Went to gramma's yesterday. Played with the kids a bit...went to the park, went for a walk to the store more to put Hunter to sleep than anything. D had a meltdown cause I bought him a Kinder surprise instead of licorice. Stayed up not too late, got both boys asleep about 10, maybe just after. I tossed and turned for another hour before I passed out. Boy can those two generate heat! I got stuck right between them, cause they were both feeling cuddly...and I ended up shoving D into Hunter so they cuddled and slept while I moved to the edge of the bed where it was cooler. H didn't wake up until darn near 4am afterwards!
Rolled outta bed just before 7am, and took a morning shower before everyone else (guys) rolled outta bed. Puttered round the house watching movies and exploring and racing the cars, while Gramma tidied up and cooked us pancakes. Not long afterwards Josh and Travis took D outside to play while I packed us up. We left just after 10am.
We weren't even outta Little Fort when Hunter fell asleep. :o) Filled up with gas in LF cause it was still only 121.9 (opposed to the 128.9 in Kelowna). We stopped at the Kamloops Wildlife Park (now BC Wildlife Park) at around noon. We had lunch and proceeded on to the park. Had D in nice clean clothes and his Hot Dog jumped out of it's bun and bit him...full toppings and all. :o( Just buttoned him and and carried on.
We left there around 2:45pm. Was lots of fun but cause their trails weren't paved i opted to just stick with the playground, petting area, and the train before we left. Bought some cute souvineers though. Got a couple of small, simple puppets that I plan on copying, and a few postcards.
Had an uneventful trip home...went as quickly as I wanted it to at least.
Got home and both kids were so happy to be home they were both bouncing and I could hardly contain them. Got three loads of laundry done so far, and that's all I got in me tonight.
Got some great pictures...posted at Flickr.
Fell in love with Colin James lastnight cause they were playing him all evening on the radio in our room at Gramma's. Decent music to listen to whilst tossing and turning. Got home and d/l-ed a bunch of his songs and have a clear favorite...called If You Need Me.
I'm really liking these songs as well right now:
Never Again - Kelly Clarkson
Grace Kelly - Mika
This Is How A Heart Breaks - Rob Thomas
Don't Matter - Akon
Cupid's Chokehold - Gym Class Heroes
Pump It - Black Eyed Peas
