I knew it wasn’t going right when…

Usually, I just wait until my husband gets home to take the boys outside, just because it is easier to keep track of the two of them, and I am not a big fan of being out in the blazing sun. So, I decided to be different, and take them out to play (big mistake number one).
Today is a watering day for the lawn, so I thought I would kill two birds with one stone, get the boys out to play and get the grass watered. So if you can envision this one….I have the sprinkler going not the back and forth kind, but the kind that moves in a circle. I get it going and all is well, and we head to the garage to put up the big boy swings instead of what was up on the swing set. We are happily coming back when Monkey isn’t paying attention and walks right in the line of fire of the sprinkler. I’m trying to get to him without water shooting up my shorts, and he’s flailing about screaming, lost in rapid fire water. So I’m chasing him in the circular path of the water trying to get him out. That was an adventure!
Next, I put up the regular swings instead of their toddler swings. Everyone is happy and excited and they jump on. Im busy getting the toddler swings off the grass and setting them up on the picnic bench (only 3 seconds gone by) and Bubs is standing in front of Monkey and they are both screaming.
They apparently clunked heads because Bubs walked in front of Monkey while he was still swinging. I’m busy telling them they have to be careful! So I turn around they are swinging again and they clunk heads yet again…mind you in like a blink of an eye. After this, well, we headed back indoors…I put them in, went back out to adjust the sprinkler to avoid catastrophe and all is back to normal..I think.
ENOUGH SAID!
