Tuesday

 Good day!  Nothing to report.  Kids had a good day at school.  Syd took a 45 min nap.  Everyone ate well.  Kobe is starting to try to play with Syd which is so cute!  Syd is everywhere in the playroom  and is playing very nicely today!  Kids had pumpkin bread and bananas for breakfast and mac n cheese with fruit (mangos/cantelope /grapes and yogurt for lunch.

I had to laugh because Miss Shelli got LIlly out of school for me but I could drive her since Alexa wasn't here and she told Miss Shelli she isn't going to be naughty for her anymore (haha) 

Syd spent the later morning swingin outside.  The big boys played scooby doo outside until lunch. 

Ok off to change some stinky diapers!

Friday

 Beautiful day!!

Took the 3 little ones for a quick 30 minute grocery run.  We are getting to be pros at that~!!  Came home and played the rest of the morning outside!!  So nice out!  We swang, ran around.  The Baldwin boys were cracking me up pushing the cars up the hill and racing them down.  Although scared me a bit because they were really going fast!  Once E ran into a tree I said no more (ahhhhh boys, sooner or later some one is going to need stitches or a cast!!!)  Rode scooters, ran around chasing each other.    Got the water table out  however O decided to dump it after 5 minutes but my child had plenty of time to get soaking wet!

Lunch is up next followed by some play time inside!! 

I am only doing teaching "school time" for now on Wed until the weather gets yucky (then it'll be every day)  it's just too nice out not to be outside!!!

Oh and another giggle moment (E went over and dropped his pants by the trees to pee, little bro decided he needed to do the same!  haha so funny)  Monkey see Monkey do!

Thursday

 Beautiful outside again! :-)  Preschool/bus pick up/drop off went well.  Syd napped from 9-10.  Kobe and Alexa played inside during that time and we colored some and read books.  They were super good that I was able to go through my Halloween stock of crafts and ordered some more for this Fall!

We went outside from 10-11 and it was so nice out.  Syd swang the entire time.  The 1 year olds ran around, collected leaves (I can not wait until the leaves fall and they can jump in them!, they are going to love that this year!!!) They climbed up and down the slide and Alexa swung for a little too.  Mr. Kobe has been too busy lately to want to swing at all!  He runs around the yard like a crazy person laughing at himself (he is quite the sight!)

Lilly had a good day at school.  She was excited to show of her 2nd place ribbon!  The boys had a good day too

Lilly ate like crazy today for lunch:  a huge bowl of spagettios, pb and j sandwich, huge bowl of mangos, yogurt..... and she still said she was hungry!  I told her to drink a full glass of water (geesh!)  she must be getting ready to shoot up!

Everyone else ate well for both meals.  Little ones all had chicken nuggets with grapes and yogurts for lunch.  Big boys had pb and J!

Alexa needs milk for next week, and cereal, prune juice, and has about 8 more diapers left.  Lilly is either low or out of diapers I have to check my closet.

Syd had 2 poops, none for A

Wednesday!

 Wonderful day!!  Bus pick up went well.  Kids all ate a good breakfast.  Alexa had a big #2 and Oliver had 2!!!  Lots of messy diapers but happy and cleared out kids for naps! :-)

We spent the first hour of the morning in the basement!  Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh do you see the mess!  Makes my skin crawl.  So While the kids played I cleaned up since I am finally feeling like my energetic self again! 

After that we did some "school time"  We talked about fall and what color leaves are and what colors they turn in the Fall.  We sang a leaf song and had the kids match leaves on a paper with leaf cut outs.  Then we talked more about our families and our houses.  Each child colored a house and we got to glue again!  Put some smiley stickers on it to represent everyone in our house.  We played peek-a-boo with the windows and doors then of course read a peek-a-boo book "where is puppy" 

Next we did our morning exercises and practiced counting 1-10 over and over again while listening and dancing to music! 

Came upstairs had a quick snack and drink and then went outside for an hour to play in this perfect weather!  Lots of swinging, running, and fun!!  Mr. Elliott got a time out for kicking Kobe (or tossing) out of the play car.

Came in and had lunch, everyone ate well again!  Alexa had chicken nuggets, Elliott had pb sandwhich with cheese, and everyone had fruit and yogurts.

Landon and E are upstairs playing legos now while me and the 1 year olds are in the playroom.  12:30 and everyone is still happy.  Looks like 1 will be nap time today!

Monday

 It was a good morning.  I wasn't feeling very well early today so we had a low key morning after school drop offs, and just went to the basement and played.  Everyone ate a good breakfast and Lunch!  Mr. Kyle got to take over childcare responsibilities for lunch time so I could go to an appt.  Came home and felt so much better and took the kiddos outside to play for a while.  Everyone was down for a later than normal nap around 1:15ish.

Syd pooped 2 times, none from Alexa.

Miss Lilly was attitude city this morning!  Ughhh big time drama, saying she was hungry and fussing every 10 minutes.  Had a few time outs for being mean to the wee ones.  I hope she sleeps it off...... only what 2 more months until she's 4??? haha  She kept asking for her mommy and I was just like, oh if only mommy was here! haha  She passed out in 5 minutes of hitting the bed!  Before I was even out of the room.

Lunch was mac n cheese (whole grain with carrots), yogurts, fruit (most had grapes)  Uncle Kyle said his little niece is a piggie!

I thinks that's about it.  I promise to do more educational activities the rest of the week!  Ughhhh felt weird all day yesterday and still was trying to kick it this morning.  I feel like it's gone so hoping it doesn't come back!

Friday

 Very fun and productive morning and 3 very well behaved little boys!  Got my groceries and all the boys got a snack even got and busted open a box of Chex for Oliver!!  Got lots of comments about how good the boys were.  Everyone thought they were all 3 mine.  Wouldn't that be funny! a 3 year old and 2 almost 2 year olds!!!  Ahhhh! 

Oh and Becky where do you take your boys for haircuts?  Kobe needs one bad!

Went to the pet store and had lots of fun looking at the puppies get groomed, watching kitty cats, rabbits, birds, fishies, turtles, snakes, and a funny chinchilla that was pretending to be dead (actually scared me for a bit!)

Came home and the boys played great while I got lunch ready.

O had 2 big #2s and Elliott pooped 2 times on the potty!

Wee ones down for naps at noon (they were pooped!) big boys down at 2!

Thursday

 sorry no pics of Syd, she was napping when I was taking pics and then when I wanted to get some of her after lunch she was a grump a lump!

Speaking of grumps, Alexa was having a rough morning.  I have no idea why but she was fussy on and off and just wasn't herself.  Only really noticed it early in the morning so we went outside for a good bit and she seemed to shake it off and was a painting fool!  Kobe painted for 1.3 seconds!  He was more interested in climbing and then both of the 1 year olds (almost 2!) swang for a good long time.  We practiced our ABC's while we swang, and Alexa is getting semi pro at that, I was excited that Kobe said X and B!!!

No poops from Alexa, 2 from Syd

Syd was happy this morning and napped from 9-10:30, woke and ate a ton for lunch!!  Whole wheat mac n cheese with carrots (toddlers had the same and Lilly too!), grapes (lilly had mango), yogurt, water. 

Alexa ate a great breakfast and so so lunch (like I said she wasn't herself and went down for an early nap but 45 min later I still hear her playing.

Syd had a melt down after lunch and nothing would console her and she was rubbing her peeps so off to bed for her too at noon.

Lilly ate a huge lunch (kept asking for more) after an hour of eating she looked like she was going to pass out on the table so up to bed for her at noon too and out like a light.

Big boys didn't eat much for lunch *must of had a big snack.  Good day at school, played legos after lunch until 1 and now they are in for quiet time
