Thursday

The pics of clothes are for Kyle!! haha, I went to old navy yesterday and was told that today all their clearance goes extra 40% off and I had a coupon on line. So they put it on hold for me and I picked it up today with the kiddos (I got so much stuff for all of us!!!) I got a few things for LIlly and Tristan for their b-days too! I asked Tristan what shirts he liked and he said "I have enough shirt Ashwey!" haha. I got post baby clothes for me for the spring too and tons of dress shirts for Kyle!!! I know you are done with shopping but if not get in there tonight! These prices were lower then bonton and children's place (I'm actually returning some of their stuff)

So we took Bryce to school then stopped by old navy (the kids were really good) and everyone thought they were all mine and I was 9 months preggo (are you serious!?)

We came home and played, Tristan played ice hockey and Lilly and Landon chased each other around all morning. We picked up Bryce and the kids had lunch. Oh for meals:

Breakfast: pancakes, milk, banana (all ate very well except landon)

Lunch: spagettios, toast, cheese, apples (peaches for lilly), smoothies (all ate well again) I gave Lilly a yogurt/milk shake drink, I don't know if it was the cup or the shake but wowza I never saw the girl chug a lug so fast!!! She loved it!

Lilly sang Jingle bells a lot today, Tristan is doing well with the potty (peed 2 times, no poo's yet)

Lilly is down for a nap, the boys are playing for a little while until naps

Tuesday

All the kids ate great at lunch today (Tristan and Bryce had their usual, pb and marsh, apples, cheese slices, and fruit smoothies) landon and lilly had grilled cheese, applesauce, yogurt, and fruit smoothies (v-8 ones)

We had a great morning (other than the yucky weather) Bryce went to school (only 6 kids showed up and guess what they were all boys!)

We played at home (stayed far away from the basement!) We painted pictures for mommy's birthday and did some crafts. We sang tons of songs/read books, and Lilly and landon were very into playing with blocks today. Tristan played with Landon's buzz light year game and did well with numbers.

We picked up Bryce and had some lunch and watched our new Thomas movie.

Tristan peed 2 times so far on the potty and is doing great!

The boys are playing upstairs and Lilly is down for a nap. Tristan is sleeping in Bryce's room today and Bryce in our room. We will stay out of the basement at least for another week!

Thursday

No pics, still have ones to upload of the boys playing in the snow yesterday.

Breakfast: pancakes, banana, milk (all ate well)

Lunch: Lilly and Landon had grilled cheese, Tristan and Bryce had pb and marsh, All had oranges, cheese slices, and animal cookies, milk (all ate well)

Bryce was a grizzly bear this morning (sleepy) I thought he would be horrible after school but he seems to have perked up a bit. The other kiddos are in pretty good spirits (Lilly is starting to lose it but it's after lunch and nap time)

We spent the morning doing a lot of coloring (I found a Valentine's coloring book) Tristan was really into the mazes!! We also did a valentine craft (I know it's early but I won't see the kiddos in Feb. much!) We talked about butterflies and the shape of a heart. We talked about Valentines Day and Tristan said his Valentine is going to be Mommy and Daddy because he loves them the same!

Then Tristan told me he an out of gas again and couldn't finish coloring his one picture.

I'm off to put them all down for much needed naps! I need to lie down too (Kobe feels like his head is going to burst out of my stomach today (OUCH)

Tuesday

Breakfast: The boys had whole grain poptarts, banana, milk, Lilly had cereal, banana, milk (all ate well

Lunch: The boys had pb and white stuff :-), apples, cheese slices, milk, Lilly had spagettios, applesauce, butter bread, and of course cheese when she was finished her other foods. All ate well again.

We spent the morning playing with play dough (like for an hour!) My boys were at it this morning (because Bryce decided to wake up Landon!) so that wasn't fun. We also colored, did puzzles, and read some books.

Tristan is doing great today with the potty, peed 2 times so far and no accidents and is in big boy underpants.

We are heading upstairs to play for a bit before naps (my 2 better nap!)

Thursday

Breakfast: cinnamon sugar waffles, banana, milk (all ate well)

Lunch: Lilly and Landon had pizza, B and T had pb and white stuff, yogurt, manderine oranges, milk

Sleepy day today (I hope that means good naps!) Tristan's been rubbing his eyes all morning, Lilly is exhausted (almost fell asleep in her lunch until I gave her yogurt and that perked her up to finish up). Bryce fell asleep on the 2 minute car ride home from school!

This morning was filled with lots of playing upstairs while crazy Aunt Ashley cleaned the upstairs top to bottom (NESTING like a crazy lady!) The kids were good and read books, played choo choos, legos, cars, listened to music.

we then came down and colored and then it was time to pick up Bryce and get some lunch.

Lilly has been a little fussy this morning (and Landon has been acting up a bit and had some time outs too)

Tristan isn't having a good potty day. I sat him on the potty 3 times this morning and nothing. Then he peed his pants about 10 minutes after the 3rd try. I put big boy pants on again though and he hasn't had any more accidents but also hasn't gone in the potty (sat 2 more times) Pull ups are on now for nap time.

Wednesday

Jocelyn and the boys ate great at both meals today! The kids played well this morning. Jocelyn looked tired though (and took rests between playing) Both of my boys were up very early this morning and wow could I tell it! Bryce has had some crazy meltdowns today (not like him).

Landon and I went to the store to stock up on baby stuff. Then we went to pick up the big kids at school.

Jocelyn and Bryce said they had a good day at school. I can tell though that Jocelyn is exhausted, when I picked her up she was the only one not running around the church. Then when we got into the car I asked her if she is "pooped" as in tired, she giggled and said "no I just tooted!" hahahahaha Then we came home and she just laid around until after lunch she perked up a bit.

I put a sleeping bag down for her on the couch even though she insisted she wasn't going to sleep (however as I type I hear heavy breathing and she's out cold!) So 1:30 and all are down for naps

Kyle I'm hoping since the boys went down earlier today they won't sleep so late so we can enjoy our tv tonight :-)

Tuesday

Breakfast: choc chip pancakes, banana, milk (all ate well)

Lunch: pb and white stuff, apples, cheese slices, milk (all ate well again but Lilly was throwing big time fits! see below)

It was a good morning. The kids played nicely until it was time to take Bryce to school. We came home and played down in the basement the rest of the morning (Tristan is in love with our new castle tent). I was going to attempt school, but sorry I'm just not feeling up to it (I think we'll just play and color these last few weeks until Kobe gets here). We did read book s in our tent, sing/listen to music and do puzzles.

Tristan is doing great with big boy pants today (no pull ups) He's peed 2 times for me so far on the potty. I just put a pull up on him for nap time (I told him to tell me if he has to go #2 since he's still up playing but we'll see (Bryce always held his poops until nap/bed time that first month or so of potty training). He hasn't complained except for first thing this morning when he told me he doesn't want to do big boy pants (I just said, Tristan you don't have a choice and your a big boy) he accepted it and moved on.

so Miss Lilly was a diva at lunch today!! Gee whiz I think she cried almost all of lunch. She was saying all morning long (after eating 2 pancakes and a banana) that she wanted to eat, then when it was time to eat she only wanted to eat her cheese (and kept asking for more) when I said no, she lost it! She couldn't get over the cheese (so no more cheese for her until her other lunch is finished) so add cheese onto the list of yogurt for Lilly's favs! She did eventually eat the rest of her lunch *but it was mixed with tears*

The boys are upstairs playing for a bit, Lilly is in the playroom with me. Naps are soon to come, oh and FYI when baby Kobe gets here I might need to take some time off of the blog (we'll see how crazy things get)
