Bubbles is Jude's new favorite thing. He can even say the word, which is the cutest thing ever...we just have to work on the actual blowing air through the wand part. He would end up chewing on the wand and getting bubbles all over his face. But it kept him busy.
Ethan discovered that pretend play is pretty fun. He found the play cell phone and as he was walking by me he said "my phone is ringing". He then pulled it out of his pocket and continued to have a conversation with someone while walking around. He would then come back and tell me who it was and what they said on the phone.
Jason would come and have some quick play times and snuggles with the boys in between activities...which was a nice break for me. Small spaces tend to give me cabin fever.
I tried to get a picture of Ethan's dirty feet because that was basically what the boys looked like all week. It was hard to get away from the red dirt that seemed to be everywhere on Moloka'i...you should have seen our white rental car. No matter how many baths and beach times we had, they always ended up with orange dirt stains from head to toe...I am in the process of scrubbing and washing clothes as we speak.
And thankfully Ben brought his wife Dawn and their little girl Naomi. So Dawn and I hung out quite a bit...many trips to the local grocery store to get food for the group, playing at the beach, and trying to get our kids to nap. It was nice to have another mom there to relate to and laugh with...even when we were completely exhausted.
