I bought groceries today so while the kids colored I carried the groceries in from the truck and asked them to help me put them away. Kaeden was really excited to help me. Bella also helped but she wasn't as excited as Kaeden. He started off by putting some things in the freezer. As he emptied the freezer foods out of the bag he saw the pizza, "Mom you got me pizza!" then he saw the Eggos, "Mom you got me Eggos too!" I said, "Yes honey I got you pizza and Eggos" K: "Mommy I love you! Your the best!" I am so happy to have made him happy enough that those words fell right out of his mouth.
Then I let them take the boxes of snacks and dump them into the treat box.
Bella thought she had done enough work that she needed a break with a granola bar to refuel.
While the kids were working hard at putting away groceries I slaved over dinner...a frozen pizza! Kaeden helped me to put it in the oven.
Things have been really great the last week and a half. I was nervous about Jesse leaving and me loosing my mind with the kids, but we have been getting along well, and having fun doing it. Sleep on the other hand is hard to come by. I guess I am just more comfortable snuggling up with my man. So tonight I thought a few beers might help to relax me enough to help me get some sleep before 1 a.m. CHEERS!
Pizza is baking, time to go play! Bella was asking Kaeden to play cars with her but he was too busy getting the TV set up to watch Batman, AGAIN! So, I told her I would play cars with her. She was in the launching stance so I had to take a picture, and yes that is Batman playing in the background.
Bella, can you show me your Happy Face?
Bella, can you show me your Mad Face?Bella, can you show me your Silly Face?
Your too cute Bella! Can Mommy have a Kiss?
OK, Kaeden has noticed that Mom and Bella are having too much fun without him, and he wants in! Now it was Kaeden's turn to launch cars which Bella had gotten down to pick up again.
So as he was ready to launch, and I was ready to take the picture, Bella was yelling "wait, wait ahh me". So I snapped her picture as she crawled back up the couch in order to get up and launch more cars.
Just as I am thinking how much more adorable can Bella get she came out with her glasses on!
Wow all this excitement has got me worn out! Before I stepped out from our little play session I thought I would top off the excitement with a little peek-a-boo; even at the ages of 2 and 4 they still laugh hard!DING!! Pizza is done! Thanks God, I was just running out of "enjury" as Kaeden says. OK kids, time to eat!
MMM pizza was good! Time to wash hands and get ready for bed. I sent the kids to wash hand in the bathroom and once I realized they had been in there a while I wondered why, so I went to check and found that they were drinking water from a cover off of a shaving cream can. Silly kids!
Just after the kids washed up and got jammies on, Katie showed up. Katie came to show me some tricks to using my new phone. Thank you Katie! The kids were up until 8:30 and went down after Katie left. Can you believe we did all those things in about an hour and a half? Me neither. I think the beers might be doing the trick because I feel like I might actually be able to shut my eyes and go to sleep.
Tomorrow is Friday, and I can't wait to have the rest of the weekend to spend with the kids. Of course I will fill you in on all the fun later. For now, I am off to bed. Good night!
We LOVE you Daddy, and we MISS you!
Can't wait to see you on skype this weekend!
STAY SAFE!!!
