Greg is out of town this week and I really miss him. He gets up with Naomi in the middle of the night and then gets up and gets her in the morning. He goes downstairs and gets milk for both kids and a banana for Naomi every morning, while I keep my eyes shut and hope nobody really wants to be awake. The last 2 mornings I have missed all he does in the morning. So, that brings us to today. Josiah came into my room at 4:30am, which is not unusual. Instead of taking him back to bed after a short snuggle, I just had him jump into bed with me. BIG MISTAKE! He stayed awake until 6am. Naomi woke up at 6:30am, so my day started very early.
At 9am we met Greg's mom, sister and niece downtown. We transferred all our stuff into their car and went to Huber's. When we got there the children were so excited to ride the wagon out to the strawberry patch. We spent about an hour picking strawberries while the kids ate more than they picked. Naomi kept eating the berries that I picked and then throwing the stems back into the box. I spent a ton of time fishing the stems out of the box and trying to replace all the kids ate. When we got back from picking we had a picnic lunch and looked at the fish for a while. We packed everyone up and came back to Louisville. Naomi slept for an hour in the car and then another 2 1/2 hours when we got home. After naps
we had an early dinner and then off to swimming at the Y. We only swam for an hour, but it was so much fun. After swimming we stopped at the pet store to look at the animals. Naomi squealed with delight the whole time we were there. She couldn't decide which animals she wanted to look at so she ran around squealing. It was fun. Josiah is into snakes and spiders right now. He wanted to see the "creepy animals". We then went home for some play time outside and then bed. I am wiped out. It was a really fun day. I hope we can have fun all summer.

Sounds like a great day to me! Yea, you kinda miss the big lugs when they are away. Wonder what they say when we are gone for a little while...which isn't often...
