Spring Break Day 4

Today was a lazy play day at home. It was a much needed break from routine and schedules. There was wii. There was a mom trying to be nice for once. There were pirates rampaging upstairs. I’m afraid Smee got a bump on his head when Captain Hook less-than-gently opened the door into him. Wendy Darling was there to save the day. They played happily for hours… and when things started erupting the mean mom put the tots to work sorting laundry. (see Tru putting dirty socks on his hands like gloves… ick… but made me laugh). Max and Tru decorated the bathtub with washable markers. Max said they were footprints. We braided Hannah’s hair this morning so she could have kinky waves. She was more than delighted with her poofy hair. Tru… I don’t think he was delighted by his headband. But – he was overjoyed to see the tractor digging holes in the backyard. This mama is overjoyed that we get a wee bit more fence along the back. After doing the mega-dishes… I made some Oatmeal Crispies. So Yummy. Last of all… bathtime (much needed for Tru after a spaghetti dinner). Hannah and Abe are having a sleepover in Abe’s room. Last night it was so incredibly windy (and noisy against Hannah’s window) so we put her mattress on Abe’s floor… a fun thing for a holiday week I guess. Yesterday was less than stellar (due to a weepy and mean mother) and hopefully a little bit of fun was had today to make up for it.
