Beating the Heat Oswego Style

To say I'm behind on these entries is kind of an understatement, but I'm of the belief living life is more important than documenting it and get it in when you can (OK, sounds good, doesn't it? :). It was the the very end of June and it was VERY hot. My neighbor Erin suggested we go to a sprinkler in town. There are two, but Oak Hill wasn't running so we decided to head over to Franklin park. I wasn't sure as I was still pretty cautious about handling the two kids in public (wow, saying that I realized how far we've come this summer!). Erin convinced me that with her and her four kids, we'd be fine. Little Abbey was ready to try it, but understandably cautious...look at her face. I assumed Adam would be very cautious since he hates showers, but he thought it looked fun right away! He was so funny, running in and out. Big Abby is behind them. The rare photo of both of my kids :) Erin was swinging Daniel around, who is 2 months older than Adam and found it hilarious. Adam flat turned down the offer to do the same :) Daniel was funny as he was wearing a swimsuit he borrowed from us, his diaper got soaked and she had to take it off and tie the shorts together to keep them up. He didn't let it slow him down. My kids getting into the action with Big Abby and her two friends. Abbey and Daniel have a little thing...it's kind of cute. Love how he's touching her arm as she looks into things. Abbey really got into it! My favorite pictures of the day ..Big Abby and Little Abbey...she really was trusting her and if you've had Abbey refuse to be held by you like everyone else you know how special this is. They ran around the playground there for a bit, which is always stressful because they can disappear so quickly haha. They had such a good time. They loved the water and they love being with the neighbors. Erin's house is the one place (besides Daddy's office) where he'll tell me to leave :) On the way home, I stopped and got them red white and blue sprinkle cookies at Dunkin' Donuts. Picky Adam decided he didn't want to eat it and fed it to Rexy... ...while Abbey enjoyed EVERY bite!!

  1. I remember Adam wanting to go inside the gate so badly when we visited the park once. He got in, but got pulled back out. Glad he finally made it in and got to run around.
