Day 10

Adam woke up around 7am. I nursed him and lay him back in bed. Jared and I were up this morning and, for the first time, out of the tent before the boys woke up. Soon Jacob woke up and was ready for breakfast. It was already warm enough outside for the kids to wear their shorts. We took a walk around camp and found some firewood at an empty campsite. We piled it in front of Adam, on the stroller and took it back to our site. Then we took a walk over to Pebble beach to see if there was a breeze coming off the lake - there wasn't - it was just as hot over there. Today we all decided was a good day to take a trip to Calumet. This is something we usually do on a rainy day but it doesn't look like we are going to have any of them this trip. We needed to get gas in the car - the low fuel light had been on. I was a little nervous when Jared passed a gas station and said we could make it to the next one. I think we pulled in the gas station on fumes. We ate at the Evergreen for lunch. Andrew happily played with his toys at the end of the table. Jacob played with the silverwear, sugar and jelly and ate very little of his food. Adam sat next to me at the other ende of the table in his stroller and on my lap. After lunch we walked with Grandma and Grandpa over to look through and old church. We then walked over to an art gallery and a shop in town. In the shop we got some salt water taffy. Jacob seemed exhausted and Jared said he'd be asleep within 5 miles of our trip back - he was fast asleep in 3 miles. When we got back to camp, he finished his nap in the tent. I nursed Adam and he also fell asleep so Jared and I played dominos until Jacob woke up. Jacob ate leftovers from lunch for his dinner. Jared actually took it over to Grandma's to be heated in her microwave. Jacob got done with his sandwich and said, "I ate all gone". He had a cup of milk and was dunking his grilled cheese sandwich in it. Jacob played with his trucks on the table - he handed me one, kept one for himself and then handed Daddy one saying, "and Daddy". He was pretending one was a "cold cream truck" He would push the truck over to me and say "more cold cream". Then he would back the truck up and want me to take some ice cream. When I asked what color it was, he'd say, "green". This evening I was washing my hands in the ladies room when something flew behind be and landed by the door. It was a bat and I moved to get a closer look and it flew my way causing me to run out of the bathroom. Jacob didn't eat much of his ice cream before handing it to me saying, "snack, juice". Then he kept asking for, "wather". We went back to camp to get him and drink and take him down to the bathroom for a shower.
