Today was John’s friend’s birthday. Remy’s mom invited is over for dinner and cake. Normally I wouldn’t go to a party on a school night but it was going to be a small group. Plus I felt like I owed John. The week after Christmas I ran into Remy’s mom when picking up the kids.… Continue reading Party
Tonight Gillian and I were snuggling in my bed. Instead of sitting still, she kept climbing out of the bed and running back to me to help her get back in the bed. After repeating this process what seemed like a million times I told Gillian that I would not help her again. Once again,… Continue reading I did it!
I love tucking the kids in bed. They are so sweet. They try to prolong the goodnight as long as possible. They give tons of kisses and squeezies. Gillian will fuss over which blanket goes where or which pillow to use. John will want me to snuggle in his bed and then after 30 seconds… Continue reading Bedtime
Tonight at dinner (much like every other night), I served the kids food, and told them it was hot. Gillian immediately shoved a meatball in her mouth. She started to cry, because it was too hot. We told her to spit it out and I again told her that the food was hot and that… Continue reading Dinnertime Secrets
Nothing much exciting going on in our house for the past couple of days. Daddy and I are having a hard time with getting the kids to listen. We will tell them something as simple as, don’t stand on the furniture. But then minutes later we will see the same behavior. Tonight I sent John… Continue reading Extended Timeout
One of Daddy’s favorite shows is the Three Stooges. He recently watched the movie and knew that John would love it too. We started watching the movie and John at first did not like it. But that didn’t last long. The first really big scene where the stooges were trying to fix something and they… Continue reading Stooges
I am lucky. My kids play very well with each other. Tonight they made a little game out of chasing each other around the kitchen island. Gillian was holding her wand and John was holding his two swords. John was trying to tap Gillian on the back with his sword. But she wasn’t running fast… Continue reading Busy
I was the lucky one to pick the kids up from school tonight. Since I work until 5:30, the kids are already in the Dolphin room playing with the remaining kids. I have a little routine when I arrive in order to save myself some time and aggravation. I go to Gillian’s cubby and organize… Continue reading Pickup
My kids are so sweet. They love to give kisses and squeezies (that’s what we call hugs). I’m a lucky mommy. I get the most kisses and squeezies. John got to stay up a few minutes later than Gillian tonight. He snuggled in our bed for a little bit and I told him it was… Continue reading Sweet kids
John received a dinosaur puzzle from Grandma and Grandpa for Christmas. This is not just a dinosaur puzzle. It is a Tyrannosaurus rex skeleton. And before you can put it together, you first need to dig the pieces out of a block plaster. John and I started digging yesterday. He got frustrated because he didn’t… Continue reading Archaeologist
