Monday..Need I say more?

Well, it started out like a normal day. The kids were sitting down to eat breakfast and I was walking their bowls over to the table when I noticed water by the laundry room door. I didn't freak out immediately(even though the washer was filling up) b/c my first reaction was that the kids had spilled a cup of water. That happens a lot so I looked around quickly for the cup and realized that it wasn't from a cup b/c more was coming under the door and fast. I grabbed towels to stop it from coming into the kitchen and quickly lifted the lid to the washer to stop it and called my father-in-law to the rescue. Well, he didn't answer so then I freaked out. My neighbor Bill came over and we came to the conclusion that it was just a pillow that pushed the water out. Quite a silly mistake on my part. There was a lot of water and had to empty my shelves b/c water was behind and under them as well. The shelves are where I store all of my pantry items so that wasn't fun. That's just like a Monday morning!

The kids were great during the whole process but when it was all over they needed mommy and had major meltdowns when I was still cleaning and needed to get it done. They have fought a lot today over the doodle pro. You know those magnetic boards they draw on. Don't tell Grace but she is getting one for her birthday from Andrew...of course then they will probably fight over wanting the same one.

A little while ago, Grace was wanting fruit snacks which we don't have anymore of. She calls them "na". So cute, anyway she was really upset and kept pointing at the cabinet so I opened each door to prove that we didn't have any. Well, we didn't have any fruit snacks but in the cabinet she was pointing at we do have gummy vitamins. What a smart little girl. After I gave her one she was fine.

As I type the kids are playing with the doodle pro really well. Andrew is tracing Grace's hand. He just traced her hand and said "Perfect!" He can be such a great brother, when he wants to. I will try to post a pic of them playing with the doodle pro. Bye for now! Love and miss everyone!
