She did a good job testing the teacher's patience, finding out what the boundaries are and what consequences would follow. The teacher and Chloe now have a secret code to use when the teacher wants her to hush and it is working well. As did an all vegetable diet for the day, which encouraged her to behave better to go back to living the good life with all the foods she likes. It was an effective tactic that earned her a smiley face for the day at school and an email from the teacher saying she had an excellent day and totally deserved to go to Chuck E. Cheese after school with Owen.
So off to Chuck E's we went. Chloe thanked us multiple times for taking her to Chuck E. Cheese. The kids had so much fun.
The boy is always caught yawning. Ever since coming home from Minnesota, he yawns non-stop. After three weeks home, one would think he would be caught up on sleep.
Owen played a couple of rounds of soccer, kicking the balls past the moving goalie.
Chloe was joined at the water gun game by another little girl. It was a cut throat game. Too serious for sitting.
This is the first visit after many that Owen spent time enjoying his tokens and playing games, as opposed to popping them into the machines that spit out tickets. He had fun playing Mario Kart.
Chloe took Owen's old role, hot on the pursuit to get as many tickets as quickly as she could. She looked like a zombie at this machine, pumping in tokens as fast as possible and not even watching how many tickets were coming out.
Meanwhile, Owen was playing basketball. This boy is good at any sport he plays!
Owen used his last few tokens at a ball drop machine to get tickets. His concentration was intense!
After we ate dinner, the kids played for awhile in the hamster maze hanging from the ceiling. They looked so silly pushing their foreheads through the rope netting.
