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
Highlights from today:
(click here for pictures) - Do you notice a few of the pictures a bit off kilter? Well, Robby got Reagan & Anderson new cameras today. We had got them kiddie ones at Christmas but they were too kiddish – so he found a good deal on www.woot.com and now they have better cameras than Mom
- A school day but Dad and Mom overslept and no one left the house until 8:15 but they were still there by 8:30-Dad says that Graham tries to be a big boy carrying his backpack and lunch bag into school but he still has a meltdown when he sees sweet Ms. Clarice
- A big day at school-Reagan and Anderson made groundhogs, saw a real rabbit, ferret, hedgehog and possum. Graham's class didn't get to see the animals but he didn't miss it
- Anderson getting in trouble on the way home for hitting and spent part of the afternoon in time-out
- Graham following his brother's lead and hitting a few times too
- Watching one last movie on the big screen-Dad rented one from Red Box and it was over 2 hours long and we watched most of it and now we have to take a break from our movies for awhile
- Hot dogs for supper and then playing with all of the grocery sacks Dad brought home-who needs toys
- More playing until bedtime-an early one for Reagan because she fussed at Mom this morning but Campbell is hanging out with Mom and Dad-she has a full tummy but may be hungry again.
Highlights from today:
(click here for pictures) - Another movie morning around here-Reagan has been watching a Dora movie and they have never really watched Dora but love this one (except the witch part that scares Anderson)
- Anderson has been watching a movie with over an hour of dump trucks, trash trucks and fire trucks. He watched the entire time while sitting with his trucks surrounding him
