On Monday Emily went home and left me with an extra kiddo for 10 days. The first night without his mom was rough and the second night was worse. That night I went to bed at 11 pm with him still awake and vowed things would be different going forward. When Merrick woke up at 6:30 I told him to go wake up Kai. We spent the day on the go. We played outside and rode scooters and went swimming. That night Kai talked to his mom until about 7:40 and when she texted me at 8 he was long asleep. Ever since that day the name of the game has been early up, run until we drop, and early to bed and every day the kids have been asleep by 8.
The next day we went to the zoo. We spent 5 hours there walking around and seeing everything there was to possibly see.
Friday was the pool again with 3 hours of fun in the sun.
We capped the week off yesterday with another hike to Latourell falls and this time, since Merrick had his cast off and no longer has water restrictions, we played in the water. Carrigan did not care for the direct spray from the falls but otherwise we had a great time.
