So yesterday after church, it was sunny and hot so we decided to skip naps and head to the pool. We ate a quick lunch, I nursed E, then we all go dressed and sunscreen on. Right when we were headed out the door, it started raining. And not just a little rain, but a lot of rain! The kids were bummed about the rain, but we tried to turn it into a fun situation, so B got out the hose. He stood on the porch and sprayed the kids in the front yard with the hose. They were out there for a good 30-40 minutes before the thunder came. It was loud so we quickly got all the kids inside. After a warm bath, we put them all down for rest time. It was about 2:45 and all 4 were down. B and I decided to rest as well.
Around 4:45, I woke up to the sound of the kids' doors opening. W came into our room to announce he had pooped. B got up and changed his diaper and I fetched E for her feeding. A and R wanted to go swim since the rain had stopped but it was too late at the at point. We still needed to go to the store and eat dinner. I looked on my pinterest boards and found the flubber recipe. I asked B if he'd be willing to do this science experiment while I nursed E. We had all the ingredients so B and the older 2 started to make flubber. I wasn't in the kitchen while they made it so I couldn't take pictures, but B said it was easy. The kids wanted purple so they discovered what 2 colors mixed together make purple. When it was all done, a big glop of purple flubber was created and the kids (and B) had a great time!
