had a really great sunday. this morning mom took me to the pool first thing. she did the laundry and i got to swim. i had the place to myself for awhile. this little boy showed up with his mom for a swim. i went right over and tried to take his pool toy. mom gave me a good earbashing for that. 'we don't take other people's toys!' ok ok. then i tried to talk to the mom and my mom called me over again. 'that little boy is trying to have some fun time with his mom, leave them alone.' ok ok. so i had to stay on the other side of the pool. mom left me to get on with it. i was having a good slash when this big shadow blocked out the sun. i looked up and there was dad. awesome. dad got in the pool with me and we had a great time. we splashed water at mom so she would go away and let us do guy time.
mom went off and tended to the laundry. when the clothes were done, i had to get out of the pool. fair enough. i had a good long swim. we all walked home. mom sorted out the clothes while dad and i had a quick shower. when i was dry and dressed mom made me some peanut butter samiches. i ate up my lunch and then it was time to go out.
dad drove us around town again. today it was shopping at the mall time. the mall is kinda far away. it was pretty cool. all the stores are in one place and you just walk around in the airconditioning. i am glad there is airconditioning, today is super stupid hot. we went into a bunch of different stores looking for shoes. dad needs more shoes. i know how that is, i'm almost ready for a new pair myself. we walked through the mall and found the kid's place. mom sat with me while i ran around the play area. dad went off on his own to look at more shoes without us. the play area was ok. it's just a bunch of fibreglass stuff set to look like a swamp. i jumped on a big fake gator, turtle and canoe. i climbed up the arched bridge and ran around. the best fun was playing in the big fake tree that had a slide built into the trunk. that was cool. there were a million other kids there all doing the same things.
dad came back and we all set off for the food court. mom and dad got some snacks. i already had lunch so i just nibbled on dad's fries. they were tasty. after food we went to the smoothie bar. i like smoothies! mom ordered me my own, i didn't have to share. i had strawberry mango. it was nice. i drank the whole thing while we walked around. we stopped at another snack shop and they gave us a sample. mom thrust a toothpick covered in this brown googy chewy weird thing at me. i wasn't sure i wanted to eat it so i just licked it. oh, my god. that was freaken good! i almost ate the toothpick and mom's fingers with my next bite. mom said that was a cinnamon roll. she ordered one to take home for after dinner.
we walked all the way back to the first shoe store and dad finally bought a pair of shoes. mall trip done. we got back in the car and drove around town a bit. while we were driving a huge thunderstorm came. it was raining so hard i couldn't see out the window at times. when i could see out there was the most amazing forked lightning. i've never seen anything like it. the storm was really cool.
dad drove us home. we got home and that's that. there's been one big storm after another rolling by. i'm going to grab blueberry and watch movies on the couch with dad. first up is back to the future2.
