Picked up the boys and took them for haircuts. The younger one sat in the chair by himself for the first time (!!) and did really well. We stopped off at a playground on the way home. Decided to stop by a store and buy bathing suits for the boys (to keep at my place) so I could take them to the pool. We went after nap/rest time. Then came back and cooked spaghetti for the boys and ... gf!! They took to her really well from the beginning. They were showing off and making eyes are her. Both boys DO have an affinity for pretty women!! We all played and each boy connected a little bit to gf in their own way. Of course it didn't hurt that she brought over ice cream with her!! It was really nice. I asked the boys if they would like her to come over and play with us again and they said yes. I will chalk up tonight in the "win" column!!
(I'll also keep my fingers crossed that no storms arise on the other front, but I'm sure it's nothing that you can't handle.)
p.s. your gf is a stunner.
