Jamie and Liam Chew's Blog: 2009-08-23

2009-08-23 23:28 (Kristen) Liam delighted me this morning by sleeping until 7:10, which meant that he slept for an amazing 13+hours last night. I think that he needed it. Jamie got up not long after, and asked me to read to him from the Pokemon manga that he has. He's really enjoying Pokemon, which is nice. We all went for breakfast at 8:30, and counted our new mosquito bites. The bugs are really fierce this year, and all the kids here are covered in big red spots. After breakfast, we went down to the rapids (walking this time) to see if anyone was fishing. Our cabinmates were, and we stayed with them until lunch. The kids ate well again, and then it was time to make our goodbyes to new friends and head back home. We made it home easily, despite the heavy holiday traffic, and Jamie raced inside to visit with Gary for a "I missed you" playdate. We unpacked the car, had chicken noodle soup from a can for dinner, with crackers, and headed up to bed. I should note that we asked Liam whas he wanted for his birthday tomorrow, and he thought first before saying "Balloons. Cake. Presents. Banandas. Fish." So we'll make sure that we have all those things for him tomorrow.
