Rowan and Laela’s new patches came in the mail yesterday, so they were oddly excited to get them on this morning!! Laela’s face doesn’t show just how jazzed she was about it, but she was actually quite amped up!
Our kids don’t like the busy patterns. They both wanted solid colours, and for some reason, they are SO hard to find. There are basic tan ones out of just about every drug store, but they are SO rough on skin, and we will never ever use them again. These ones came off of Amazon. Blue, green, pink, and yellow. They are cheaper in price and also in quality, but since the kids wear them for shorter stretches of time rather than a full day, they don’t have to be super beefy. They aren’t as sticky, but they stay on as long as we need, and then removing them doesn’t hurt at all! Both of the kids are really happy with these! So we’re going to have to find some more and stock up! We go through four a day (before and after school), so the 80 we just bought won’t even last a month! Whew!
When it was time for church, off came the patches, and off we went! It was a decently peaceful morning. Brady and I sit in the centre of our bench, and we both manage the kids on each side of us. Its a really nice way to split the work and also sit together 💜 I had the pleasure of sitting beside Laela today, too! She’s a peach. She coloured quietly, and when she was done, we held hands. It was really nice.
After church, Brady and I visited with friends while the kids ran around in the gym with their friends. It was a really nice, relaxing stretch. For us, anyway. The kids were not relaxing. They were sweaty from all the hockey and tag.
Everyone lunched, and had some quiet time. And now all the jobs we didn’t get to yesterday have to get done!! Sooooo wish us luck!
I hope you all have a relaxing Sunday 💜
