Baby, it's hot outside!

Here it is a lovely summer day and we are inside....again.  It is just too hot to be out with the little ones and to make matters worse we have no air conditioning at home so we've been camped out at my mom's house.  This isn't a bad thing it is just hard to be away from home with the girls, and trying to find things to do.  Add to that a significant lack of sleep (due to the heat) and this week is quickly going down hill.  Tonight we are going to sleep at my mom's house in the hopes we will all get some well needed rest.

Winter we huddle inside not wanting to deal with the cold.  Summer heats up and we hide inside not wanting to bake to a crisp.  Thinking it is time to move to a more moderate climate!

  1. I feel the same way about the heat! The neighbors must think we're crazy for not being outside, but we have ZERO shade in our yard, so there's no way I'm taking my little ones out there when it's 90+. Here's to hoping you make it through!

  2. Haha. I'm the same way! I complain about the heat during the summer and during the winter all I want to do is stay in doors. If you find the perfect place to live let me know lol. Following you now from VoiceBoks :)

  4. Ha, ha - come and live in Hawaii - it doesn't seem to change from "perfect" here:)

    PS. When we lived in Australia, it was often too hot to go outside and play - if your girls are old enough, there are HEAPS of simple indoor craft activities that can keep them busy - just search online:)... We always love making ice blocks too!
