What to do?

So, its been almost 3 weeks since the start of my summer vacation with the kids. Tim is busy working overtime which is perfectly fine, but here I am with the kids. The last couple days have been nothing but utter mayham. I yell at the kids from the time they get out of bed until the time I fight with them to go to bed, I'm thinking my kids are the only kids in the city that have a summer bed time of 8p.m. Today I'm pondering on what to do. We have a beautiful pool, yes, but its hard to get a 3 1/2 year old who doesn't really know if he wants in, an overactive 17 month old who would just jump in if we let her but then once shes in, she wants out! And a fish of a 10 year old who really isn't any help unless hounded. So, our only pool time usually happens when the kids are napping.

Today I have been looking around the websites of watertown wondering what we could do today and tomorrow. Today may be still a little chilly for the park for a picnic, so maybe that could be tomorrow, I contemplated the Sci-Tech Center or the zoo, both of which I don't really like, but would suffer through for the kids. Honestly, I've never been to the Sci-Tech Center either has Tim so a part of me wants to wait and go as a family, but a part of me wants to get the kids out of the house to do something. Yesterday we went to the library, and I think when people saw me pushing a double stroller with two toddlers in it, they went running the other way! The kids were good for the first 30 minutes while looking at the books they picked out (Mickey Mouse and Thomas The Train) then when Mommy wanted to look for books, they decided to pull as many books off the shelf as they could and throw them on the floor which Brandon was nice enough to pick up for me, but felt the need to yell at them, loudly, everytime they threw it on the ground, causing attention to us!

Hopefully something will come to mind. Swimming lessons are still an option for Brandon for the summer, but sadly they start Monday and they are everyday, and the last 2 weeks hes at his mothers and we all know shes not going to bring him in everyday!
