Museum

We all slept in. The sound of the rain and the coolness of the house always makes us sleep longer in the mornings. Its one part of summer i love - after a hot day the rain comes it cools and we all sleep better.

We decided to scrap cleaning and go to the museum. We've been not too long ago but they seem to change exhibits often enough that its different each time we go. We had a great time- hearing the rain fall on this historic building filled with history was relaxing. Marley and Harper ran around looking at the different parts, Kanye was in his chair.

At one point though because the panes of glass surrounding the exhibits slope down on an angle for who knows what reason - Marley walked into it and hurt his nose, then as we turned a corner to see another exhibit he hadn't followed and started to walk back the way we came, looking for us in absolute fear and tears streaming. We figured maybe lunch was on the cards and would settle him so we went upstairs to the cafe and ordered the boys some food.

After the hot food we all felt a bit warm so we took a stroll through the drizzle with our umbrella and wet weather jackets on into town. We looked at all the beautiful cherry blossoms and or course the machinery. We popped in to see my mother in law before the boys got antsy so we left and headed back to the car.

When we got home they were all so tired they watched a movie while i cleaned up. I started working on the scuffs and marks on the walls- though we don't know yet about the new place (but we are wishing the universe will be kind to us and let us have it) i figured i'm going to need to get to them at some point. The walls and frames came up so clean i was pretty proud of the job i did but also a little grossed out at realizing how messy they were- clearly the boys have been walking along after eating and touching the walls and because we never flick on the hallway light we don't see how much is there.

I'm really wishing, wishing, wishing we get this place and i'm trying not to get my hopes up but remain positive that we will get it. I keep going through my mind about packing and sorting but then i stop myself - i cant be thinking this way yet- until we know for sure. Its really hard not to though especially now with 3 boys i realize how much more stuff we have compared to when we moved in.

Anyways this photo i got was of Mar asking Andre a lot of questions about birds and Harper saying 'guck 'guck' for duck duck.

Keep hoping and wishing foe me about the flat! Last thing i'll say i promise until Monday when Andre calls the agent!
