Highlights from today: (click here for pictures)
- Friday mornings-the best morning of the week. Some child was in our bed way too early. It wasn’t Campbell (she ate around 5 am). After a few more kids climbed into the bed-Mom headed to Anderson’s bed to hide out for a few minutes (not successful-Graham found her very quickly)
- Helping Mom decide what to take on the trip-Reagan wanted to take only skirts (it will be very cold most days) while Anderson tried to convince Mom to pack 5 bathing suits. Mom didn’t get very far with her packing
- Counting beans out and putting them in muffin tins-while eating fruit loops and drinking milk. We didn’t even make a mess this time with the beans
- During breakfast Anderson asked if we were going to read a Bible story (Mom wasn’t even going to suggest it after the other day) and sure enough we didn’t have time (but we did read one after lunch)
- Heading to Grannymom’s house since Mom had a meeting to go. Riding bicycles and playing farm while Campbell had her morning nap. We ate lunch with Grannymom too and Anderson said he ate “6 pickles”
- Reading more books at home and then afternoon naps. Campbell stayed up with Mom and played in her gym. She can kick and hit the toys hanging above her. She even grabbed one toy and put it in her mouth-brilliant!
- Graham pulling out the Mr. Potato Head after nap so everyone sat down to work on their potato heads (not too long ago, Mom questioned why she had 4 potato heads-now she is glad she kept them all-one for everyone)
- Dad coming home with pizza for supper. Just as we put our shoes on to go outside and play-it started raining. But we did play in the driveway with our umbrellas. Graham doesn’t really get the umbrella concept-he just holds his most of the time-not over his head!
- The neighbors probably drove by and laughed since after the rain slowed, we started cutting hair-Anderson’s hair first, then Graham (who is a little more difficult) and finally Dad’s hair. He sat right down in Anderson’s lawn chair and wrapped the St. Patrick’s Day flag around himself which we close with a chip clip (that is to keep the hair off).
- Baths for everyone-boys in one tub and girls in the other. Campbell can’t stay long in the tub because someone has to hold her the whole time or she will slip down. Then the little ones went to bed and Reagan and Anderson watched a few movies. Mom and Dad were being so cool and letting them watch a 3rd movie when they heard crying-they were having a knock down drag out fight. He squeezed her leg, she hit him and then Mom walked in to see Anderson slug Reagan-brotherly love!
