Happy Thursday! :-)

Breakfast: fiber poptarts, bananas, apples, milk (all ate well, Hayden was a hungry guy and ate 2 apples!)

Lunch: mac n cheese, pb crackers, grapes, cookie if they at well (Tristan did not eat much and was upset when he did not get a cookie) I held firm but Bryce didn't and "shared his cookie when I wasn't looking" it was nice of him and so cute, because Tristan said "fank you Brycey" and Bryce said "your welcome Tristan"

Ok, so I know they say tv is bad for kids but you have to here this! TV is on in the play room till 8:30. Super Why comes on PSB at 8 and I love this show (it's very educational and interactive) I used to have to fight the kids to keep it on because they wanted to watch disney channel but now they seem to love it too. Well today on part of the show Mr. Pig was saying the alphabet and then would stop mid letter and ask the kids "what letter comes next" All 5 kids got into it and would answer him and they blew me away when they were right!!! Even Paige and Landon would copy what the big boys said. I was very impressed!

We took Bryce to school and then came home and went downstairs to play. We read our books, sang our songs and did the weather. We then talked about Halloween and used stickers for our calendar and then used some more to make a spooky picture. After that I was able to have Hayden make a ghost out of his handprint. The other kiddos weren't interested in holding still any longer.

We went outside the rest of the morning and ran around and got some good exercise.

Everyone is having a much better day today. all went to bed at 12 (although I still here Tristan and Paige talking and playing) fingers crossed they sleep well!

Today I'm trying to teach the bigger boys (hayden and bryce) of how they can redirect the little kids in a nice manner. They get very frustrated when for example they stand in front of the tv. It was cute when Paige started pressing the buttons on the tv and Bryce went up to her and said "no, no sissy" then gently nudged her away. The funny thing was she listened to him better than me :-)

have a good weekend!
