Bunco was really fun last night. When I got home Bret told me Justin said “I miss mommy” when he was going to bed. That made my day that Justin loves our cuddle time as much as I do. Or maybe it is just the back scratch I give him 🙂 This morning we all slept in a little bit, well that is if you can call 7:30 sleeping in. The kids played their Leapsters for a bit. Today we planned a play date for Michael and Justin only and the girls alone. Nicole wore her Tinkerbell costume and Justin wore his race car costume. Paula dropped Michael off. The boys had the best time ever. It was so great to hear them playing, giggling etc. This was one of the best play dates ever-not one fight. I miss Nicole though and I can’t wait to hear what a great time she had. The boys played race cars, used all the tracks, flew planes, played trains, etc. all boys things! The kids helped me make a pizza. They were totally laughing when they plopped the sauce on. After lunch they played a little more and then we headed to the Newport library. Paula met us there and it was nice to have Nicole back. Paula had a much more rough time with the girls. I wasn’t surprised there are two things against the kids, they are all girls and there are 3 of them (one is bound to feel left out). It will be interesting to see how it goes when I have the girls and Paula has the boys. Justin really enjoyed his boy time. Michael and Justin were running around before the show-they were having so much. The show was cute, magic and juggling-the kids were loving it. After the show we went outside and let the kiddos play. They seemed to need to get their giggles and wiggles out. They all played, running around and hide n seek. Finally everyone was starving so we came home. Nicole didn’t tell me too much about her play date. She said they had a tea party and played baby. Tonight at dinner she told us a little more. The kids went into the bath when we got home. They took one in their fishy bathroom with the sprayer. We hadn’t done that in a while. They did tell me they didn’t care if they were clean. It is getting a bit harder to get them in the bath. When I do get them in they love it, but I guess being clean interrupts their day. The kids were so hungry and had a big dinner. They are loving tortellini and alfredo sauce. Dad made a yummy homemade cream sauce. We headed out to another library for another show. It was Buster the Balloon something or other. It was cute. The kids really liked this silly show, as they call it. Just watching J&N watch the show was making me smile. I can’t believe all the free programs the library has to offer. Speaking of money I was telling Bret tonight that I don’t think I have spent any money this week, this is definitely a first. I see the light of maybe remodeling a bathroom this year. We got home at 8:00 from the show, so we had the kids go right to bed. Nikki wanted to do a harmonica show. She is so cute playing that thing. Justin has been so tired at night I feel so bad for him. We cuddled and he was so tired when I left him he just said goodnight-he didn’t even beg me to stay in his room.
