Today's plans were changed at the last minute due to a birthday party being cancelled (poor sick neighbor girl had a high fever!). We finished breakfast (homemade blueberry pancakes and bacon) and lessons (reading for S and math for L; she's learning subtraction and S is making great strides in the reading lessons) and it was time to finalize plans for the morning. The kids were able to choose between the water park or venturing out to ToysRUs to find the ever elusive Transformers we have been hunting for. They picked the toy store. We found the toys they wanted and spent the next hour looking around the store. I enjoy doing this with my kids. They don't have the gimmes yet (hopefully never!) so it's fun to look and touch and feel and then leave with only what we came after and sometimes not even that. There have been times we have come only to browse and left with nothing and no tears or anything. We came home, had lunch and played Wii together. Naps followed shortly after. J slept for 3 hours. I was able to close my eyes for about 20 minutes - just enough time to feel rested but not groggy!!
Then after baths, I headed out to our homeschool group planning meeting. That went better than expected. So now I here I sit, blog hopping, posting about our daily life and feeling so lucky to be a wife and mom.
We picked our first watermelon over the weekend. It was left on the vine too long so it got dumped in the trash. It was sure looked pretty though : -)
