Thursday

We have been under the weather this week. It seems like everyone else is too these days. I think we need some spring sunshine to make us all better. Greta and I are on the upswing but poor Fieldy is just coming down with the crud. He is cozied up on the sofa watching Wordworld with Chompers cozied up on his lap... watching over him like usual.

So whats been going on.. hmmm not much but here is what I can think of:

Greta missed her Valentines' Day party at school since she was sick. She was bummed but most bummed about missing swimming that evening. She went to school yesterday and brought home her valentine's. She loved reading them and hung them up on her bedroom wall.

Jeff is very busy at work but has a day off tomorrow so I am looking forward to spending time with him.

I am pretty much done with my spring clean organization overhaul. So relieved. I am currently going through our collection of photo albums from the 90's to early 2000's. I am boxing the photos up or scrapbooking them. It will clear up lots of space. Plus Jeff and I don't like to be reminded how well rested we used to look once upon a time before kiddos:)

I am organizing my craft projects so I will get some of them done.... I hope.

The kids can't get enough of Mr.Popper's Penguins and a big bowl of popcorn to share.

Greta and I have started reading chapter books before she goes to bed. I love that we both can't wait for reading time to see what happens next...

Fieldin is starting to show some interest in using the laptop. He has been practicing on his play vtech laptop to get used to the keys etc..before he gets to play with the big kids toy.

He sings "closing time" with me over and over again while running errands. ..."You don't have to go home but you can't stay here".. we've got quite the harmony going.

I cherish Greta's written messages and drawings to me. Fieldin is starting to draw more and more and I love it.

Chompers likes to play fetch for a half hour straight...

I look forward to Downton Abbey every week.

I broke down and bought a cake pop maker.. I am not an appliance person and can't believe I did it. But there are sooo many decorating possibilities with a little round piece of cake.

I hope you are all healthy. I hope you are all happy. I hope you are all enjoying your Thursday.
