Year 3 – Week 51 – Day 2

Bill left last night to spend the weekend in Parker, AZ for the annual off-road racing campout. So it figures that Brendan is a total stinker and keeps me up until almost 1:00am with his shenanigans. Then Trevor was up at 5am!

I totally appreciate Marcia coming over to hang out with us this morning. I was able to get a truck load of laundry done and work on some cleaning and moving furniture. We finally sold the sofa from the trailer! Yay! It won’t be taking up so much room in my living room any more.

The boys were all wound up and crazy today. Instead of fighting to try to get them to nap, I decided to meet friends at the Hall of Flame and just skip their nap for them! When your friends live so far across town that it takes an hour or more to get there, they might as well live in a different state. It is hard to plan to get together. It was good to see them all today and the boys had a great time with some friends their age.

Of course I brought the wrong camera for this low light place, and capturing four kids together was nearly impossible.

They are fascinated with the washing machine now. They will hold their lights and look in and watch the wash for almost the whole cycle.

The boys were super tired the rest of the day but they handled it well and were willing to watch TV while I cleaned and folded laundry.
Brendan is starting to show signs of hunger and is asking for fruit pouches to eat now. He took bites of pretzel today, and chewed bites off of a chicken leg! Go Brendan! He is really making progress now!

I am totally exhausted and I hope the boys SLEEP!

      Silly boys watching the laundry! Hopefully soon they’ll be able to do it for you. 😉
      It is so wonderful that Brendan is EATING, not licking, playing with, feeding Eins, but EATING food. Yay Brendan!!
      We had to say goodbye to Aunt Shannon, Uncle Jon, and Kieran this morning. They have a Wedding to attend this afternoon, and won’t be back before heading home to Pittsburgh. It was a very quick visit! Kieran us talking so cute now. 🙂
      Kayla and Ashley are here, too, so we’ve been very busy. They go home tomorrow.
      We had our first white hard frost this morning. Brrrrrrr!!!!
      Lots of love and hugs,
