On Monday I worked all day. I was at Bruce Trail PS in a lovely kindergarten class. Drew was in school and Hunter and James played at home. I met James and the boys after-school at the Georgetown early years centre. There is a french program there every monday night, so we like to head there after school. Drew isn't always interested in going to the french program, as it's more school, so sometimes we just ride the bikes in the big gym area. We picked up pizza and breadsticks and headed up to Nana and Papa's for dinner.
Tuesday afternoon found us at Kelly's house hunting for eggs all over their property. We were meeting right at the tail end of Hunter's nap, so rather than waking him, I left him and James at home and had a date with my biggest monkey. We both had a blast. We spent an hour hunting for eggs (they have a really big property and the eggs were hidden all over!) and then about another hour playing in their basement with all of our friends.
I had a doctor's appointment Tuesday night to discuss the results of my CT scan. It turns out that my ureter is dilated (which I knew from my ultrasound) but my kidneys are enlarged too. There are no blockages or anything that appears to be causing this, so I'm being sent off to a specialist. Nothing serious, just more tests to be done. Fun times.
Wednesday found me in Drew's classroom, volunteering for the morning. I zipped home after this to pick Hunter up and head to our Easter playdate at Rocchina's house. She had planned an elaborate time for us to decorate eggs, read stories, and just plain have fun together. It was different on this day. Hunter is a little more hands on than Drew is. He is more likely to fall down stairs or eat something he shouldn't, so not quite the relaxing playgroup I had the day before, but fun nonetheless!
Hunter fell asleep on my way home, so James loaded the van up with the carpet he had pulled out of the upstairs bedroom and off we went to the dump. Hunter woke up on our way back, so we stopped for lunch and then a quick haircut for Hunter.
We headed up to the Glen to be there when Drew got home from school and then stayed for a yummy roast beef supper.
Thursday I worked again, so James took the boys to Skedaddles. We were planning on hitting Chuck E Cheese for dinner, but Drew fell asleep on the couch and then woke up with a fever, so Hunter and I headed to Wal-Mart instead. I needed to get a few last minute Easter things. Man, do I ever wish I had stayed home. The place was a zoo and Hunter did not want to be shopping (it was close to his bedtime). Ah well, it had to be done.
Friday was a rainy, cold and miserable day. Drew wasn't feeling very well still, so we just layed low. Drew and I dyed eggs while Hunter napped. Drew was fascinated with mixing the colours....he kept saying, "I wonder what colour it will be next???" This went on for quite a long time!! Who knew eggs could be so much fun!?!?
Once Hunter woke up, we headed to Nana and Papa's for the evening. My brother came home on this day, but we didn't get to see him. He went to a dinner party with some friends.
Saturday I took the boys to Milton for the Easter parade. We brought baskets and went around to various downtown businesses to collect treats. We met up with Rocchina and Reina, and had so much fun. Hunter kept stealing chocolate out of his basket, so was a mess every time I turned around. It turned out to be quite a warm day, so it was really fun to walk around downtown. After this, I had promised Drew we could go to Indigo to choose something to buy with the money that Aunt Fran had sent him (and Hunter) for Easter. He chose a Lego set, which once I bought, I realized it was for kids 7 and up. I ended up putting it together.....it was hard! After a treat at Starbucks, we headed to the Glen where we hung out with Nana and Papa and Uncle Jamie!!! Drew was convinced that Uncle Jamie wouldn't remember him. Poor little man. Uncle Jamie took Drew on the 4-wheeler out to the back, Drew was thrilled!! The hung out most of the evening. Hunter warmed up to him too. God I wish he was moving back closer to home once he's done Police college.
