Highlights from today:
(click here for pictures) - Campbell eating only one time last night which is the norm except last night Mom didn't wake her up to feed her when Mom went to bed
- Another snow day so Dad was home again to play!
- Reagan and Anderson staying in their pajamas as long as possible today while watching movies, coloring and playing "traffic"
- Anderson finding the missing "butter" (icing) that Dad said he couldn't find earlier today
- Lunch and then playing happily together while Dad was on a conference call and then naps
- Finally venturing out of the house after a long, long two days (seriously, it wasn't bad at all)-we went to Reagan's "favorite place"-McDonalds in NLR and to Mom's favorite place-Kroger
- Once we made it back to across the bridge we stopped by Grannymom's house-her road was the absolute worst we had seen!
- Campbell hibernated today and slept most of the day but is wide awake tonight and getting a little mad at Mom who has her laying in the floor!
Highlights from today:
(click here for pictures) - Mom and Campbell watching the snow around 2 this morning
- Anderson seeing the snow and running to tell Reagan to come and look
- Graham's new favorite spot to sit in Mom's room is on the ottoman by the window-and he could have sat there forever this morning
- Reagan begging to go out while Mom was getting everything ready and Dad was finishing up a conference call
- Making a snowman and playing in the snow until everyone was soaking wet-it didn't help that it started raining on us-oh, Graham did have on mittens and kept taking them off and dropping them so he actually had 2 pairs
- Campbell slept again the entire time we were outside playing in the snow but she said she prefered to stay in the warm house and not outside
- Much of the afternoon was spent with Reagan, Anderson and Graham sitting by the front door while covered in blankets. They were watching the neighbor lady do 360s on her 4 wheeler
- Afternoon naps and then a very late supper-we have all been lazy today and haven't been paying any attention the clocks
- Campbell has been grinning the past few days and you won't believe who she grins at the most-Graham! He is the same little boy that pokes, pulls and tugs on her all the time-I guess she likes that!
- Dad letting Reagan and Anderson stay up very, very late watching movies-still up at 9
Highlights from today:
(click here for pictures) - Campbell waking up again twice last night-usually in the middle of the night she falls asleep while eating but Mom keeps waking her up so she can finish every bit of the bottle but last night when she fell asleep Mom just put her back into bed
- Campbell getting a bath this morning by Dad. Mom wasn't quick enough to take a picture but Dad had Campbell sitting up in the sink and you could just see her little head poking out of the sink
- Rushing around this morning and not having time to pick up Anderson's ciniminnis
- Church and then back to Nonna's house for lunch and playing
- Afternoon naps and then Oreos for snacks-Reagan ate the middle, Graham was delighted Mom had him a cookie and Anderson perked up quickly after nap when Mom offered him a cookie
- A Super Bowl party at Larry's Pizza with Mom and Dad's Sunday school class. Everyone ate lots of pizza and played games. Graham could even walk from the game room and then find Mom and Dad all by himself. And Campbell stayed awake while lots of people held her.
Highlights from today:
(click here for pictures) - Campbell waking up two times last night which makes for a very tired Mom!
- Saturday morning waffles with chocolate chips for breakfast but before that we hung out upstairs until we had played with every toy upstairs
- Baths after breakfast-Campbell didn't get one since she was snoozing away
- A short movie on the big screen before Uncle Jason came over to bring over some diapers that were delivered to his house-in the past few weeks we have bought 2306 diapers and 3696 wipes (seriously, the UPS man hates us!)
- Grannymom and Grandpa coming over for pizza and to watch the ballgame with us-Campbell was wide awake most of the morning long but went right to sleep once they arrived
- Then Reagan, Anderson and Graham helping Mom make our pre-Super Bowl treat. Graham got some marshmallows stuck on his hand and tried his hardest to shake it off while Mom just laughed and didn't help
- Mom turning around and finding Graham licking a spoonful of icing, Reagan squeezing icing onto her fingers and Anderson sticking his whole hand in the icing tub
- Afternoon naps and then devouring our football rice krispie treat
- Picking up some formula (if we could only get that by mail) and a stop by Walmart before bed
Highlights from today:
(click here for pictures) - No one wanting to put on clothes this morning except Graham and Campbell-Mom had to do laundry and needed to wash those pajamas
- Nonna coming over to play this morning while Mom tried to do a little bit of housework and start packing-the kids had fun helping pack up their toys (now Mom has hid them so they will be kind of newish next week)
- Campbell eating every 2 hours this morning-she has become one hungry girl
- More playing until naptime-we even stayed up until 3 this afternoon
- After Anderson had pottied, he told Mom today "When Pops was here, he didn't wipe my bottom, he had Nonna do it cause he didn't want to get poopy in his hands"
- Graham usually wakes up fussy from his naps but this afternoon when he woke up Mom told him that Dad was here and he was one happy boy
- Dad telling Reagan that she was spoiled as we were driving to Chuck E Cheese
- Staying out way to late at Chuck E Cheese-everyone was very well behaved. Anderson and Reagan loved the games and Graham was happy as he could be on the rides and Campbell just slept the entire time
- Mom is going to have to work with Graham on not being scared of the Disney characters-he was terrified of Chuck E. tonight
- Reagan called Mom upstairs to tattle-"Anderson said poopy so many times. He said he was even going to draw a picture of poopy"
Highlights from today:
(click here for pictures) - School this morning-Mom and Dad did better getting around (mostly because us kids woke up early)
- Campbell starting to notice when she is by herself (or at least when the room is quiet). She likes the action and might have missed the others while they were at school
- Mom picking Graham up first (he is usually last) and he walked down to Reagan's room where he saw the popcorn table (a big table full of popcorn kernels to play in). He tried to play but Reagan and Mom wouldn't let him. So when Mom was picking up Anderson and gathering his papers/coat/backpack, Graham took off down the hall back to the popcorn table-along with Reagan and Anderson who were desperately trying to stop him
- Anderson being upset that the bulldozers making the new Target weren't working today but was happy when Mom said they could play outside with their umbrellas
- A big snack and a few movies along with doing a page or two from Reagan and Anderson's workbooks
- Anderson telling Mom that if we see a bear, Daddy will get it with his ax (Mom thinks we better buy an ax)
- Reagan spent some of the afternoon skipping around the kitchen shouting "we're going to Disney World, we're going to Disney World" and then Anderson told Mom "it is going to be hours and hours and hours and hours and.... " (this went on until he was out of breath)
- Campbell eating many, many times this afternoon and she was held by everyone-but no one wants to hold her for long anymore. Mom has to be ready to catch her any second
- Graham helping Mom do a little cooking in the kitchen-Mom let him pour and stir and then she caught him trying to open the oven wearing oven mitts (just like Mom just did)
- Dad coming home and taking everyone to Chick-fil-a. The kids were thrilled and couldn't wait to get in the car once he came home (Mom was going to class meeting)
- Spending almost 2 hours there and then coming home for a quick ice cream snack before bed
Highlights from today:
(click here for pictures) - Campbell decided she wanted to eat just as Mom and Dad were going to bed after midnight and then again at 2:30
- Since it wasn't a school morning everyone woke up early-why does this happen?
- Reagan and Anderson picking at their breakfast while Graham ate all of his, shouted "all done" and then kept eating whatever Mom would give him while she cleaned the kitchen
- Grannymom coming over to take Reagan, Anderson and Graham to Rock Creek-Reagan told Mom that "it was the church where you slide, not where you learn about Jesus" Mom let her know that they do learn about Jesus there too
- Graham sliding and playing until he was exhausted-when Mom came to pick them up at Grannymoms he walked Mom to the door to leave
- Mom and Campbell shopping-Mom is addicted to couponing! (this week at least)
- Naps for everyone and then Mom hurrying around trying to get us to church-she looked at her watch and had 30 minutes but the next thing she knew, we were late
- Cubbies and then coming home to a snack and then bedtime
