Three for Thursday

Garrett: 6:15 AM. Pink moo and toasty sticks. Cartoons. He was very quiet while he waited for Hannah to wake up. Hannah woke up around 8:15 AM. Pink moo and toasty sticks. Cartoon.

They played with trains and other toys for a little bit. I let them color at the table with a dry erase board and markers. Then they played with puzzles.

Snack: applesauce and juice.

Evelyn got here around 10:30 AM. I sent the other two kids outside to play. They were only out there for about half an hour before Hannah got a time out for screaming at Garrett in the meanest way, then she got sent to bed for kicking the wall in time out. I brought them in and made them watch "Monsters, Inc." to stop them from running around like nuts.

Lunch: cheese quesadillas and fruit with milk to drink.

I tried to read a story to Hannah and Garrett before nap but I was giving the baby a bottle at same time. Of course, the children didn't get a full story because that was a silly thing for me to do. All three children slept at the same time. They all slept for about three hours. Hannah was awake when I went in to get them up, but she said she was only awake for "a lil' bit".

Snack: chocolate milk and Ritz crackers. Cartoon while I fed the baby.

We pulled out the Candyland board game and played it in the kitchen with the baby in the highchair with some toys. That only lasted a little while. Then I sent the kids outside.

Brad got home around 5:30 PM. Jim picked up Garrett around 5:45 PM. Brad took Hannah to the home improvement store with him. Evelyn went home around 6:30 PM.

[Me again: I forgot to feed myself this morning. I managed to unload and reload the dishwasher before the baby got here. Laundry. I read more of the book club novel while I rocked the baby.]
