Today we stayed in. The girls were given an "ultimatum" yesterday. If they didn't behave, we didn't leave the house today. Well, they didn't, so we didn't. I wanted to go do laundry today, but couldn't very well go back on my word. Should have thought that one through a little better.

I didn't take a photo today, because it completely slipped my mind, to be honest. The girls were very well behaved though. Laura spent a lot of time practicing her name, and Maddy was "cooking" with their play kitchen off and on all day.

My migraine is gone, but it left me very tired today so I didn't accomplish much.

Tomorrow, we'll be going to Gramma's in the morning to do laundry and visit Uncle Kyle because he got home from college tonight. Later in the day, we'll be going to visit Memere and Dziadziu. The girls will be spending the night with them, so there won't be a blog post for Saturday.

My Apologies

For not posting yesterday. I had a migraine and nearly nothing got accomplished. Today we're all in better spirits, so there should be a decent post tonight/tomorrow morning about today. :)

Today was a rough day, so there are no photos. I was very productive. I got a lot of cleaning done, and knitting accomplished while the girls ate lunch and napped. But then, worlds collided, and Maddyson has been extremely difficult. She doesn't want to behave, or do anything besides yell, scream, and stomp.

Excitement for today? Laura can write her name! :)

Funnies:

Maddy sitting on Jake's shoulder like a parrot, and Laura "helping" Gg walk.

Today we:

Gramma called this morning, so we went out for breakfast with her, and then picked up Gg and Aunt Cathy, to take them shopping and pick up Gg's new glasses. After that, we went back to Gramma's house and watched some old Mary Tyler Moore episodes while the girls played. Then, back home to read with Daddy while Mommy makes dinner. Following dinner will be baths, story time, and then early to bed because the naps were skipped today.

See you tomorrow!

"Headbanging" to 90s hits.

Photo of the day:

This is actually from Friday, when we went to visit Jake's Grandmother and Aunt Terra.

Today, we did the laundry at Gramma's house. After lunch, they wouldn't settle down (they never do if they aren't home), so we came home, and they slept from 2-4. I made fried rice from scratch, and they each had two helpings, then a freezer pop. We went to visit Gg for a little while, and she gave me a bone crochet hook which belonged to HER grandmother! I feel honored that she'd give it to me. Tomorrow proves to be busy as well. :) See you then!
