One On One With The Kiddos

January 3rd, 2009 by melissa

This morning we started off slow. I don’t even think we ate breakfast until 9:30ish. We were upstairs for a long time. The kids were busy putting coins into their banks. I moved the megablocks upstairs and the kids finally noticed them, so they built big towers and castles for princesses. We ran to Costco as we remembered the kids need passports for Canada. We shopped a bit too and the kids loved the samples. It was getting close to lunch, so we just had lunch at Costco (hot dogs). After we went to Lakeshore Learning Center for the craft and to get a few things for the easel. The kids made the cutest snowmen. Justin’s is full of glue, he loves to squeeze glue out. Nicole rested and Justin and I went out to drive his car. But Nicole didn’t want to miss out on the fun, so her and daddy came out. The kids love driving their cars on the greenbelt, daddy has them race. They love it, big smiles on their face. The rain forced us to come inside, so the kids used the easel. We got dry erase markers and they call the eraser-spongebob. Then I gave the kiddos the bath. Nicole brought a baby in and it was so cute watching her talk to it. She would dunk it and hold her under water-at least she told the baby to hold her breath. Everytime the baby got water in her face, Nicole needed a towel to wipe it. Justin cleaned his train and Nicole washed the baby. I think I had to warm up the tub three times as they took such a long bath. After bath, we decided to have some alone time. Daddy and Justin headed over to Northwood Pizza to play games. Justin was so excited and waited all day to play games. Nicole and I stayed home. She wanted to make cupcakes. We had so much fun doing this, so easy with one kid. While the cupcakes were cooking, I filled up the kitchen sink with water and bubbles. We had so much fun playing in it, water everywhere. Then grandma/pa came over to give the kiddos paper for the easel. We then headed to meet Justin and daddy for pizza. Grandma/pa came too. When we got home, we had cupcakes-the kiddos hung out with grandma/pa for a bit then upstairs to read books and bed.
