Supermother!

I do feel like supermother today!

First the troops and I headed out to storytime at our local library. We all had a great time and had no bad behaviour from anyone! Then a quick trip home where Mads and Jules took a quick nap.

We then headed out to the mechanic where my car was finally fixed. I've been driving without a warrant for ages waiting for a part to be delivered from Singapore. While the car was being fixed the girls and I headed for a family restaurant that I generally don't go to but it had an indoor playground and it was raining! We had lunch and Trelise had a great time running around the playground with some random boys she befriended. We headed back to the mechanic's to pick up the car to find they had also fixed my bumper at no charge that I had unfortunately pulled off while visiting a friend a few weeks ago. I didn't ask them but they obviously felt that my car was disgraceful driving around looking like it's been in a rally or something!



Then we headed to our local pool for a swim. Yes I took all three for a swim by myself. To be fair our local pool has an amazing toddler swimming area and it's pretty much crawling depth. We had a fantastic time. Trelise found some girls to play with and the babies and I just crawled around splashing. By the time we left 2 hours had passed and I had some very very tired girls!

That was an indoor pool? I was just thinking I seriously think we should try a house exchange. You can have our heat for a week and we can get some coolness for a change!!!

You are totally supermom! I would be leary of all that activity with 2 let alone 3 kids :) I'm so happy you had such a fun day.

Sounds busy. Please tell me more about your country. Is it winter there? What is it like outside? Hills, mountains, flat? What are the people like and the cars?
