Got them out of the house yesterday for a bit. We ended up at a friend’s house where the kids all watched a bit of a movie and ate pizza while a couple of us parents got to talk around the dinner table for a while. Summer camp starts next week which will be great for our rhythm.

Our 3 year old woke up at 4:30 this morning crying because he missed me so I went to his room to put him back down. Its now 6:45 and I have not been back to sleep. He knocked back out pretty quick though. At least his sheets weren’t wet, I am calling that a win.

Pretty great so far. We went to the museum today and I picked up a Tesla’s Sphere from the gift shop “for the child”.

Yesterday I busted my butt in the crawl space reapplying insulation to my sweaty air conditioning ducts. Now, I’m sitting in the parking lot at the boat ramp waiting for the sun to burn off a little fog before I launch, so I can’t complain too much.

We’ve been hanging at the beach all week. My 3 year old has been loving it! My 1 year old has been indifferent, but at least she’s not hating it. We also have a bunch of family with us, so there are some extra hands to take care of the kids.

In the process of slowly chopping up an odd “tree bush” that fell over but kept growing this past winter. Thought I could get away with a mini chainsaw, but after yesterday I’m starting to think I may need a “real” one 😅

This sucker has 10"+ trunks and lays about 25ft long

I’m doing good besides the sun trying to scour me from the earth.

Saw the Broadway production of the Lion King in Columbus on father’s day.

Did slip in dog shit this morning however, so I have my kid pooper scoopering.

[four months later] It was a good week, full of work and poor sleeping not caused by my kids. We’re progressing here. What about yours?

Pretty chill so far. Daughter just started gymnastics which has been super cool to watch.

Pretty good really. Kids are having a good time, and nothing major has broken.
