It's nice sometimes to just wing it.
Today around lunch time, we decided to head over to the river for a bike ride. Mary ran way ahead with Robby while Ben and I hung back. After getting lunch at the ice cream stand, we tried to get the kids to take naps in their strollers. That didn't happen, so we headed home.
We woke up pretty late from nap, but decided it was so beautiful out, that we just had to drive into Boston for another bike ride. We biked along the Charles to a cool playground where the kids played for awhile. Then on our way back we ran into a big Indian festival at the Hatch Shell. We stopped there to get the kids some dinner.
Ben and Robby split a meatball sub. As Ben was finishing his I nearly had a heart attack when Ben kicked against the table making his whole chair fall backwards. He almost cracked his head open. It was one of those terrible slow motion scenes that keeps playing back over and over in your head. I remember just thinking, I was right there, he could have died and I was right there in arms length. All I had to do was reach out and grab his leg or something. Luckily he was not hurt, just very scared.
Nothing a popsicle won't fix. Robby and Ben were very happy that Mommy found them these blue popsicles at a nearby ice cream truck.
Look Daddy my tongue is blue!
Robby's tongue too!
Robby's favorite color.
