Driving to work this morning and I got stuck in a little traffic. I completely forgot that there was construction on 520 and that it was the first day back from spring break for some schools. Anyway, I got stuck in some traffic. John says “I’ve never seen these houses before. They are creepy!” I… Continue reading Traffic and cookies
I ordered Chinese food for dinner tonight. We don’t get Chinese food often, maybe once every six months. We always order sweet and sour chicken so the kids have something that’s easily identifiable. We gave the kids chicken, rice, and some lo mien. Gillian started eating right away. John watched Daddy eat for a few… Continue reading Chopsticks
Tonight at dinner, John wanted some ricotta cheese on his pasta. He pointed at the cheese and said to Daddy, “Will you do the honors?” Tonight I told John that he could get two Hersey kisses for Gillian and himself for dessert. John brought the kisses upstairs into Gillian’s room. The kids enjoyed their snack… Continue reading Little stories
This weekend Gillian had to go potty. I quickly rushed her to the bathroom and helped helped her get on the potty. While I was waiting for her to go, she says to me, “Mommy! Turn on the light!” I guess when I was rushing I didn’t turn the light on. It was the middle… Continue reading Creepy
On Easter Sunday, we went to Mimi and Poppy’s house in the morning. We arrived and waited for the neighbors to arrive. When the neighbors arrived, we sent the kids outside for an egg hunt. The kids eggs were hidden by the deck. John was the oldest and we told him to not go for… Continue reading Easter
Daddy spent majority of today painting Gillian’s room. After the first coat of paint, we ran a few errands with the kids. It was so nice outside, that after running errands I decided to keep the kids outside. I made them some sidewalk paint. They were excited at first, but John got bored quickly. I… Continue reading Painting
I pulled into the driveway tonight, got out of the car and opened John’s car door. “Mom, can I go out of the front door?” Sure. Why not. I close the door and walk around to Gillian’s side. As I am unbuckling her, she says “Can I go out the door with John?” Sure. Why… Continue reading Driving
Daddy picked up the kids today from school. When they got home, Daddy gave John the keys to open the front door while he got Gillian out of her carseat. John got to the front porch and saw a package on the porch. He said “Look we got a box!” Daddy said “It’s probably not… Continue reading The Package
Lately John has been taking showers, while Gillian has been takin bathes. Tonight I had both of them in the bathtub together. John did “This Little Piggy” on Gillian’s toes. Gillian loves it. I love it too. My favorite part is when he says “This little piggy has roast beef!” Because it sounds like “This… Continue reading Bath time fun
I woke John up this morning. I said to him, it’s a school day. He said “I know! I just don’t wanna go to school. I don’t like doing all that work!” I said you need to go to school. Remember you told me one time that you wanted to be an astronaut. It takes… Continue reading Astronauts and Computers
