2019 :: 34/52

Monday Al drove up to mom's house once he was awake and after nap, we drove to the outlet store in Eagan to get Trevor some new school shoes (we had to go up 2 sizes from his current tennis shoes, he's in a size 2 now....) then we went to shane and Jodi's house for a grill out and "water park" night in their backyard. we had so much fun and the time went by so fast! the kids and I headed back to mom's about 8 and we left Al there to spend more time with Shane and sleepover.

Tuesday we had planned to go to como zoo with Jodi and the kids but once it was close to opening time (10) we had a line of storms coming at us. so the kids and I drove to shane & Jodi's house to play and get Al but shortly after we got there the rain stopped and it was only 11 so we decided to como zoo. we had lots of fun at como! the boys got to go on rides once we were done looking at animals. we didn't get back to mom's house until 230 so we put tova down for nap then had lunch. Al napped too. tova woke at 430 so we headed home.

Wednesday I had Camdyn, Chloe & Carsyn from 8a to 1pm. it was fun having them here! Carsyn napped early, cam, chloe and trevor worked on friendship bracelets, and tova just ran around.

Thursday I had just Cam and Carsyn. the boys played outside for a bit catching crickets while tova and Carsyn played.

Friday Al was off; we had a nice at home day including our first bonfire and s'mores of the year! but the bugs got bad so we didn't last too long.

Saturday all 4 of us went up to mom's house. I had a celebration of life in the afternoon then we all ran to woodbury days for a bit. Saturday night tova started a weird breathing thing (shallow breaths, kind of felt like she had hiccups but different) then only stopped when she calmed down. she ended up falling asleep in my arms in moms bright, loud living room (not like her!) She didn't sleep great that night including being pretty hot.

sunday at 11 was the woodbury days parade. Al stayed with tova at mom's since she wasn't feeling great. trevor, mom and I went over to grandpa neil's house to park and walk from there. Jodi, luke and Henrik met us there too for the parade! it was a good parade, long, but the boys had fun watching it, waving and collecting candy. after naptime, we headed home. tova still wasn't feeling great and was hot. once home I took her temp and she was 104.4; uffda!
