It was spirit week at the girls school this week - which meant that they got to dress up in certain ways through out the week - for funny hat/hair day on Monday, Dan made balloon hats for the girls to wear (which of course meant that Evie and Aaron had to have balloon stuff too. Tuesday was class colors day, Wednesday was Dress Up day and Thursday was twin day - Eileen and Anna wanted to be twins, so I told them that if they got their room clean, we could go get twin outfits for them. They had fun picking out matching outfits together.
James has developed an obsession with the broom recently - he finds it and drags it all over the house - he has even managed to figure out how to drag it downstairs by himself. I caught this cute picture of him the other day - trying to sweep up a little piece of paper on the floor - it was so funny to watch.
James had his 15 month well child check up this week - he is growing well - and the doctor was very impressed by his gross motor skills - after watching him sweep the floor - so was I!
Friday night, Dan and I got a babysitter and went to the temple, then out for dinner - the temple was wonderful and so was dinner :) It was such a nice evening!
Saturday was totally crazy - we started out the morning by getting some cleaning up done outside and inside - followed by a walk/ride to the park for a bit (during which Aaron got a blister from wearing the snow boots that we told him not to wear and Anna fell and scrapped her knee) James new favorite word is "WHEEE-Oh-WHEEEE" He uses it when I play with him and make him slide down my legs - and he really used it in the park - he sat on the swing for 20 minutes just swinging and saying "wheee-oh-wheee-oh"
Anna has decided that she wants to be an artist when she grows up since she draws so well - and because art is her favorite subject in school.
Saturday afternoon, we went over to Dwayne and Nicole's for Anayia's birthday party - we all had a lot of fun! Then i had to run out for all the stuff for the fireside on Sunday followed by a baptism in the evening. Sunday was just as crazy - Ward Council in the morning - church - followed by friends coming over for dinner and the Stake Easter Music fireside. Eileen came and sang with me in the choir - it was so fun to sing with her and Anna came to listen and did such a good job of being reverent and listening! Now I am exhausted and ready for bed - but first I'm going to enjoy this massaging chair for a bit longer....
