Chapter Thirty-Three - End Of Summer

Late August
Cam's POV
It's the end of summer again and the kids have their last year of pre-school. We need to get all their supplies, so today is school shopping. School starts Monday and it's Saturday.
I got out of bed and took a shower. I put on a blue t-shirt, khaki pants, and blue vans. I went downstairs and made waffles with eggs and bacon. The kids came down and we ate.
Almost everyone is gone. The Jacks are on tour for a month and Nash and Hayes are visiting family for 2 weeks. It's just the kids, Carter, Matt, and I.
Carter and Matt came down and ate. I told them to get ready because they were coming with us.
I took the kids upstairs and gave them a bath. I put the boys in a black t-shirt, blue shorts, a black snapback, and blue high-top converse. I put Addy in a purple t-shirt, white leggings, and purple high-top converse. They brushed their teeth and I did their hair.
Carter and Matt were ready by the time we came down. I grabbed my wallet, phone, and keys and we got in the car. We buckled the kids in and I drove, Carter sat in the front, and Matt sat in the back with the kids.
We drove to Target and the kids picked out backpacks and lunch boxes. Addy got a Butterfly backpack and lunch box, Brady got a Shark backpack and lunch box, and Cody got a Monkey backpack and lunch box. We got school supplies and paid.
Then we went to the mall and bought them clothes and shoes. We got Subway for lunch and ate at the food court. We threw away our trash and got back in the car. I went to the grocery store and got food for dinner and the rest of the week. Carter and Matt stayed in the car with the kids.
I went back to the car and loaded everything inside.
We drove home and took everything inside. Carter and I put everything away while Matt played with the kids.
"Daddy, can we go swimming?" Brady asked, walking into the kitchen.
"Sure. Got tell Uncle Matt to put your swimsuits on." I said.
"Okay." He said, and ran back to the living room.
When everything was put away, Carter and I went upstairs to put our swimsuits on. Matt was already in the pool with the kids. By the time I got outside, Carter was in the pool also.
I jumped in and splashed everyone.
"Daddy can we play Chicken fights?" Cody asked.
"Sure." I said.
"I choose Daddy!" Addy said.
"I choose Carter!" Brady said.
"I choose Uncle Matt." Cody said.
We played a few rounds and Brady and Carter ended up winning.
"Daddy I'm hungry." Addy said, still on my shoulders.
"Let's go eat." I said.
Addy stood on my shoulders and backflipped off into the water. She came back up and smiled.
"Dude, you need to put that girl in gymnastics." Matt said.
"Maybe I will." I said.
We all dried off and went inside. Carter and I made pizza, carrots, and broccoli. We sat down and ate.
Brady got sauce all over his face, so I had to whip his face off. I noticed Addy didn't eat her broccoli and Cody didn't touch his carrots.
"Cody, Addy, eat your veggies." I said.
"No." they both said.
I kinda expected this from Addy, but never Cody.
"You guys need to eat them. They're good for you." I said.
"They taste icky." Cody whined.
I picked up his fork and ate a piece of carrot.
"See? It tastes good." I said.
"No." Cody said, and crossed his arms.
Addy did the same.
"If you don't eat it, you'll go in timeout." I said.
They just glared at me and didn't move.
"Fine." I said.
I picked them both up and they started screaming. I sat them in the timeout chairs and they got up and started running.
"Addison and Cayden Dallas. Get back here right now." I said sternly.
Carter and Matt got up and disappeared for about 2 minutes, then came back into the kitchen, Carter holding a kicking and screaming Addy and Matt holding a kicking and screaming Cody.
They sat them in the chairs and made sure they didn't get up for 4 minutes.
"Are you guys ready to finish your food?" I asked.
They nodded and went back to the table. They quickly finished their food, cringing after every bite. I wasn't trying to torture them. I just wanted them to get their vitamins.
They finished and ran off to play. I cleaned their plates and cleaned the kitchen.
At around 8, I put them in their pajamas and they brushed their teeth. I put them to bed and went to bed myself.
