The days are heating up just as I'm ready to say goodbye to Summer. Figures. While part of me is so ready for pumpkin patches and corn mazes, the weather says otherwise, so we'll be soaking up these last few pool days, enjoying family walks and backyard time while the days are long, and taking advantage of mid-week trips to visit family before we have to worry about preschool schedules.
Also on the agenda this weekend was a visit to the petting zoo, where Declan immediately bonded with all the goats (he is my mountain goat after all) and tried to ride the less-than-impressed llama. Ez has been obsessed with hitting his t ball around the backyard and we've only lost one ball to a neighbor's yard (my fault) and had one bat-related injury. We escaped the heat for a bit with a day trip to Berkeley, and we managed to convince Daddy that a weekend pool trip was a necessity, despite the crowds. It really was. The boys loved showing off their stomping grounds to Joe, since we normally only go mid-week while he's working. Bonus points that after all that jumping and swimming everyone slept through the night for the first time in what feels like months.
On second thought, maybe I'm not quite ready for summer to end. These lazy summer days are shaping up to be some of my favorite memories.
