Walking With Hazel: Saturday July 24/10

Holy COW was today just jam-packed fulla stuff.

First, we played in our swimming pool in the backyard while Mom showed Dad where everything was in the garden (because Dad is forgetful about these things), and then we had to get Dad to come over because there were a couple of bumblebees floating in the water, so he had to fish them out before we could play in there again. Then we sprayed Dad with the garden hose, but we ended up falling over because the pressure from the hose was a bit to much for us.

Then Brandon came by with Cleo and Mikhail, and we all went swimming at a big pool! We played with giant foam noodles, and beach balls, and rafts, and there were slides and ropes to swing on and a big rock wall that you could climb up, but mostly we just held on tightly to Dad, because we're still new at this sort of thing, but it was still fun. Except for the part when the lifeguard came over to tell us that we couldn't just sit on the steps to the slide, and that's when Dad said to her that we were only two, we don't really comprehend what she was saying to us, and maybe if she had a problem with the two-year-old then maybe she should talk to the two-year-old's father who was sitting right next to her instead of frightening the two-year-old so much that she didn't want to swim anymore. We're pretty sure Dad was mad, but he didn't yell, which was probably a good thing.

After that, dad gave us a hug and we went back to swimming.

Then we went home, and we decided the best thing to do would be to march around the kitchen in time to some music while Dad did some laundry, and then we figures out how to use Dad's camera, and we took a picture of his foot!

Then we had a nap.

When we woke up, we decide it was best of Dad gave us a muffin; then we decided it was best if he gave us SEVEN MUFFINS! He gave us one muffin and a few slices of watermelon, so we thought it was a good compromise.

Then we went for a bike ride, and we stopped at the store and spent about half an hour looking for popcorn kernels because they were hidden way at the back, and then we continued on our bike ride, and then we came home, and decided it was best if we just kept our helmets on and headbutted each other.

Don't tell Mom about that one.

Then we had dinner, where Dad pulled off an AWESOME STIRFRY, and then we had popcorn, which is the best way to end any day.
