Shark


Dearest Angels~

Some how you all ended up in our bed again.  :-P  And, we were all up early this morning.  You all had breakfast, were in clean diapers and clean clothes, had teeth brushed, and we started the laundry by 8am.  Go us! 

While you two were playing, I went on the bike that Grandpa Jim brought over the weekend for 30 minutes.  It was nice to sit and exercise.  It has a full seat, so I was able to stretch and rest my back while working out.  :-)

Afterward, we had snack time downstairs.  We continued to play downstairs with music on.  I put some shoes out for fun and took some photos of Grace trying to put them on.  Joshua, you got in on the fun too, but then you got bored and colored with some crayons.  Then, you two helped me sweep and vacuum the downstairs.

While you all continued to play, I went ahead and cooked dinner ahead of time.  I cooked some ground turkey meat with onions and garlic.  Then, I added pasta shells, cheese, and sauce.  I put it to the side so that we would just need to reheat it for dinner time.  I also cooked some chicken nuggets and fries for you all in the oven for lunch.  Grace, you cried and screamed during lunch and barely ate.  You appeared tired.  So, once Joshua was done, we headed upstairs to lay down.

I changed your diapers and Grace gave me the cutest kiss!  How lovely!  Then, you two were snoring by 12:30pm. While you two were napping, I spoke to the OB office.  I'm still having an ear infection, so Dr. Rush called in augmentin (an antibiotic) for me to take.  If it's not clear in a week, she's going to send me to an ENT specialist.  Ugh.  I hope it clears. 

I did a little bit of reading and then I uploaded and organized the photos from my camera to the laptop.  Grace woke first and watched me upload the photos.  Then, she played around.  I had to wake Joshua before Anna and Quinn got here!  Anna came over to observe.  She hasn't seen Joshua in about 2 months and was so impressed at his improvements!  She saw such a big difference in his speech!  Way to go little man!  You did well for Quinn too.  You said some spontaneous words and did your vowels nicely.  She gave us more flash cards and signs to work on.  Grace, you didn't say your 'ball' word.  You were quiet, but you did play with Joshua and Quinn.
 
Once everyone left, we quickly ran out to the pharmacy to pick up my prescription.  We were back before 6pm and heated dinner.  You two ate well!  Daddy was home late .... around 6:30pm.  You both said 'dada' when he walked through the door.  :-)

Oh, Grace, your upper right primary first molar .... tooth #B .... is erupting!  You're beginning to look like a shark with all those teeth!  ;-)

We watched a little more of the Olympics this evening before you all had your bath.  Penny is gone this week and next week.  So, tomorrow and thursday you all will have daddy days!  And, next week I'm off!  Woo hoo!

Sleep tight little ones!

I love you both so much!
