Groundhogs Day

Day 6 of our staying at home from pink eye & colds was okay but it does feel somewhat like Groundhogs Day- wake up, breakfast, clean up, play, preschool at home, lunch, play, nap (prayerfully), play, dinner, get ready for bed, email James, update blog. of course, add some refereeing & lots of diapers, cleaning, reading, coughing, wiping. repeat

I'm not complaining- there's been less refereeing while we've been home & some pretty neat craft & preschool projects (well- at least least for those of us who are craft challenged- not say for people who make too cute pillows like this one we got for Christmas.)We did spend a while this morning cleaning our playroom. K was very excited that we put labels so we know where things go. I don't think he was very impressed with my drawing but I told him Daddy might help draw better pictures when he gets home. I'm not sure that the younger two shared his enthusiasm for organization but it's much easier to find things. K thanked me lots of times tonight for putting labels so he can find toys better. They have been super cute playing- today we had two lions & a penguin. Then all three did a Veggie Tales puppet show. T has even started taking his plate to the sink after he finishes eating. If only boys only copied the good things! :)
We also were very excited to get the mail today. Here's C proudly wearing his Officially 3 badge from Grandmollie. He was also super excited to get his birthday coloring book from Nana & Papa, birthday supplies from the Coles, and can't wait for Grandma & Uncle Brian to come celebrate on Sunday. We're thankful for the prayers for us to get well and think we're headed towards getting well. And we're down to 10 weeks until James' return & 11 until Kayleigh's birth.
