The ride (bike for Sean and Wagon for Rhea) to the park on saturday mornings has become somewhat of a Saturday morning routine for dad and kids. This past weekend was even more special. I got home from my workout and grocery starving but to my delight I openend the door to the sweet smell of pancakes. Yes, Aji was making pancakes...chop chip ones made in butter for the kids and for us without all the fat (butter and choc). They were so yummy! I'm sure all the calories i burnt hlaf hour ago got right back in my body...but i justified it as calories for the body to recover :) Well, just when i thought it was the best surprise ever...sean came and got me a snmall bouquet of wild flowers. he had picked them on their walk in the trails and told aji -'This is for mama because she loves flowers'..Aww...my sweet baby...he knows what brings a smile on mama's face and so does daddy with the breakfast :) I loved the bouquet..he even picked different color flowers- there was pink and purple and white and lellow (I mean yellow). He was disappointed that the white had wilted soon and promised me to get more next time :)
In other news, we got the kids enrolled in the fitness center on Sunday. We didn't do it until now since Rhea was still so small. Plus we didn't want to put them again in day care after all the time they spend at school/daycare during the week. But the time seemed right and what a great decision. We went as a family on Sunday and it was easier on them even though it was thir first day at the child center since they had each other for company. They promised to call us if the kids were crying or if Rhea had a dirty diaper. None of that happened and after 4.5 years Aji and me worked out together. The last time was when I was expecting Sean - we lived in the apartment then. Seems like ages ago. Aji went 10 minutes before me and picked up the kids. They spent some time in the basket ball court and when i came down Rhea was attempting to pick a ball to do some hoops.She was smiling ear to ear and seemed to have a lot of fun. This is going to be such a huge time saver for us since until now most of our weekend time was spent in both of us taking turns for our workouts...am so glad we went ahead and did this.
