Sunday

We spent the afternoon at mom's and took the boys' bikes with us. Pop-pop was busy selling a book to a neighbor when we arrived and mom was making dinner, so Cailean, my grandmother and the kids took their bikes one street over to the poolhouse parking lot. Ian is just getting back into riding his bike the last week or so. A few months ago, he took a nasty fall and it took a very long time for Ian to get back on a bike again. So, it's like we're retraining him how to ride. But, he is getting there and he is more interested in riding around than a few months ago. Gavin still has his big wheel and he didn't mind at all this afternoon! I took photos and will post them later! We heard that Santa might get Gavin a big boy bike, but we'll see. haha My grandmother enjoyed being outside and watching the boys ride around. It was a chilly day, but it was blue sky and sunny! As they were riding by us, they were waving and yelling, "Hi Grammie, Hi Mommy, Hi Daddy" over and over and over! Cailean was able to hang some photos and a mirror for them and after dinner and dessert we headed home!
Ian's constipation issues have been resolved (some of you would probably want to throw a party while others will have no clue what I'm talking about!!!!!)! Yea, this has affected the poor kid in more ways than one. We've seen a difference in him. He goes on one potty and Gavin goes on the other potty every night after dinner for 8 minutes (I said 10, Ian said 5 and we compromised at 8). Well, the two think it's pretty funny talking through the walls to each other and knocking on the walls! What a difference this has made!!!!!! I'm sure you can picture this if you know the set up of our house!
We've got another busy week even though soccer has ended. Cailean is on vacation, so I'm working the first half of the week because he's going on a hunting trip for the end of the week. Monday night he's hunting and my mom and I are taking the boys to the NC State Fair. Tuesday afternoon we're getting together with another family to get the boys together. Thursday night we have an event at Ian's school. Next weekend includes two birthday parties and a Halloween spooky trail event and dinner with a soccer family!
The pool has reopened at the Y, so we need to plan some nights up there! Life is great in Cary...
