A lazy morning...

This morning has been a lazy one, and boy has it felt great! My Visiting teacher came over and brought me the best gifts ever- tomatoes, zuchinni bread, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, jalapanos and shredded zuchinni with reciepes to try! Willow and I played "cheater" Candyland were you put all the cards face up and pick the one you want! I've watched You Tube videos, and SNL re runs all while snuggling a cute little baby. I've cleaned a little- but it's been a lazy one around here! Only having 2 kids at home right now is nice and strange at the same time! I better get to the laundry though!

Willow with braids...

I have to bribe, scare and threaten this child to keep her pony tails & hair clips in. We have an agreement: as long as she keeps them in at the store/while we are out, she can take them out when we get home. It's been working really well except for the fact that she looks like a complete motherless child with her hair ALWAYS in her face! I braided her hair awhile ago and she cried a million tears. She's kept them in for awhile because I threatened her with the loss of her Kindle time if she removed them! I'm so nice huh?

And she's off...

Grace was really excited to go to school today. It was probably the smoothest morning we have ever had getting ready! When I asked her if she wanted me to stay with her for awhile, she said, "No, I'll be ok." Daisy and Tristin were right with her going in for breakfast, so she was taken care of. I didn't cry as she walked awhile. I was more happy and relieved for her. She has needed this for a really long time and I'm so grateful she will have something more exciting than myself to entertain her.

Randomness...

Little man...

Here's a few random pictures of Roman sleeping yesterday and 1 from this morning.

Our little lamb...

Yesterday I came out to check on the baby in his swing- and this is what I found! Cotton balls taped to his head! Grace came up behind me and said, " He's our little lamb." I couldn't stop laughing...
