- Awakened by a sweet little four-year old asking for a banana and an episode of "Little Einsteins"
- Got up, made coffee for me; made scrambled eggs, biscuits, and bacon for The Wife and Things 1 and 2 (no solid food for me yet, since I'm recovering from Round 3 of Oral Surgery Hell)
- Took Thing 1 to his trumpet lesson, with Thing 2 in tow, to let The Wife get some rest
- Took the boys to a nearby park to fly kites, ride bikes, and swing on the swings
- Lunch at Coco's, my boys' all-time favorite place (for reasons that elude me)
- Took the boys to a nursery to buy a tree for Thing 1, who wanted to plant one in honor of Tu B'Shevat, and a flowering plant for Thing 2, who just wanted something of his own to plant.
- Naptime (whew)
- Planted trees and flowers with the boys
- Set up the garage so the boys could cut up old cardboard boxes and make spaceships
- Watched half an hour of an old Steve McQueen movie with the wife
- Dinner, courtesy of my mother-in-law
- Gave the boys a bath, read them stories, sang them songs, put them to bed
- Crappy TV with The Wife, and a little ice cream to soothe my sore gums
Repeat as necessary.
