Our First Fort & The Hose.

On Saturday I had to go to the Clinic because I had a Kidney Infection and needed to get some medicine and Brett watched Gwenie. When I got back this is what greeted me:

Look at my fort Mama


Brett had made a fort for Gwenie!!! What a great Dad. They were eating Cherrios and having fun inside when I got the camera out. I can't believe that I hadn't thought of it first. It made me remember all the times my bro and I used to make forts, the best ones where on the couch with all the cushions. I couldn't find any pictures of us, I don't think Mom took any, do you have any Devo???

Thanks, Dada


Also this weekend we had Brett's dad come over and fix our electricity, a breaker went out. They had to turn off the electricity and so we came outside because at least there was a breeze. Poor Gwenie was so hot, so we took her clothes off and turned the hose on her. She LOVED it.

That feels so good


We also had the bubble machine going and she had to carry it all around with her.

Bubble machine, where are you??

The fort -- what a great idea! Brett is such a good dad! Mason would love that. We have one of those sprinkler hoses in our backyard ... a long hose that has holes pricked into it ... that Mason LOVES to run through ... you could totally put one over on that grass right next to your house ... Gwenie would love it.

I ran out of swim diapers last week, and we were swimming in Parker's little kiddie pool. His bum was SO SAGGY...the diaper padding stuff was exploding out. He didn't care, though. Looks like Gwenie doesn't either!

Erin,
I keep meaning to buy one, I know it would work perfect on the grass on the side on the house. I think I need to go to Target.

I LOVE the fort, good job Brett! We used to make those when we were kids too and they were always fun!

That saggy diaper was the best, it weighed like 10 pounds at the end!

The boys LOVE forts and hoses, I don't love cleaning up after them but if it keeps them happy and entertained for a little while, I am willing to do it.

I can't believe she just let you squirt her like that?! That diaper is ginormous!

I'm SO sorry you got a kidney infection! That sounds really painful. I've never had one, but I've had a bladder infection, and it was NOT fun. Ya, bummer you guys didn't make it over to the beach house. That would have been fun to hang out!

Love the fort and the hose....such old school toys, but the best! Building forts was one of my favorite things to do as a kid. Good memories. : )

Great going Brett...those are some of my favorite memories too - as a kid. I'm so glad you got a picture of them Darci.
