Since it has been approximately a million degrees here in Dallas this summer, Lucas and I have had to get all the errands and other activities that involve stepping out of the air conditioning done early in the mornings. This means that we have to come up with lots of creative ideas for indoor and/or water based activities during the day. Luckily, Lucas is a pretty content and creative kid, so we haven't been too bored yet! (Although the forecast for this week is calling for highs close to 110 degrees, so we might just be pushed over the edge here pretty soon!!!)
Here are some of the fun things Lucas and I have been doing to keep cool:
 |
| Wake up, have some milk, watch some Sesame Street or Sid the Science Kid |
 |
| Each some breakfast....yummm....Nutella! |
 |
| Play at friends' houses...they always have cooler toys than the ones here! |
 |
| Go outside to swim in the pool...uhhh...play in the dirt. |
 |
| ....and pick up rocks. (But isn't he cute in his hat?!?) |
 |
| Play some "Duke"! (That's for you, Papa!) This isn't our house, but we have a hoop in the living room that Lucas plays for HOURS every day. He loves it. He calls basketball "Duke", which makes his mommy very proud :) |
 |
| Build a fort out of blankets, pillows, and the ottoman. Which we broke...oops! |
 |
| Maybe time for a nap in the fort? |
Not pictured, but still favorite activities...coloring, throwing the ball for Clara to play with, anything we get to do in the playroom upstairs, bathtub paints, Gymboree, going to the pool, and watching movies on mommy and daddy's bed.
Is it fall yet?!?
