Holy h-e-double hockey sticks it's hot...

I like summer but my body loathes anything above 30C...like today, and yesterday and the day before that, for example. I'm overheating. 
My fingers are sweating on the keyboard as I type. And we have an air conditioner in our kitchen/living room the size of a small car. Crazy.

I gave Wren a little bag and told her to go collect "treasures" just to get her out of my hair for a bit. I let her interpret what "treasures" could mean, and she started picking all the magnets off the fridge. See the cards and paper on the floor?

This is cranky baby, grumpy toddler, sleepless nights kind of hot. Okay maybe not totally sleepless for us yet, but somewhat uncomfortable for babies who are used to being swaddled and kids rooms turning into big boxes of heat. I spent last night on the leather couch because that's the room where the AC is at. It was, interesting. 

"Look Mommy! I haf Tweasures!"

I even took the girls to the mall today because I thought it would be nice to be in some AC and get out of the house. The mall was barely cooler. I'm currently brainstorming where else might have some AC pumping like crazy...my car is one place, for starters. The library? Grocery store? I could wander around and pretend like I'm getting something out of the frozen food section but really just be standing there with my face in the open freezer door. Sounds heavenly.

Ellie's cheeks...they are super nummy.


Well, all of these pictures were taken before the hot weather arrived...because now we live in just our skivvies around here. Probably like the rest of the city right now. 

I'm ready for some rain.

  1. Also...just remember to put some clothes on before you go anywhere - don't know if the heat is affecting your cognitive abilities, thought a reminder wouldn't hurt :)
