Today in a desperate moment I packed the kids up and headed to Walmart for a blow-up pool. All that they had left were baby pools so that's what we got.

When I came out my battery was dead in the van. It was 100+ degrees and miserable but Jeff came to the rescue. Let's just say that being stuck in the heat wave with five children wasn't my favorite.

It was worth it though. After two weeks of not playing outside (unless I gave them the hose) they played out for three hours!

I wasn't made for this weather. I'm from MAINE for crying out loud.
