yesterday was good

 hazel and olive were spending their morning coloring 

and i walked in the kitchen to see eleanor coloring the table

she totally knew she was busted

and hurried to put the cap back on the marker

when i asked her if she was coloring the table she gave me the cheesiest smile

ps. aren't they the cutest in their matching nightgowns?

 the dr. office called and told me i passed my glucose test!

they said i had one high mark but you need to have two or more to fail so...

i might be a little diabetic but i'm so glad i don't have to do a special diet and 

prick myself multiple times a day 

 olive had speech and i got to see this picture of hazel on the bulletin board

she was a top croc and got the principal's award last month

 there was one picked for each grade so she was the top kindergartner

pretty cute! 

 rather than distracting olive during speech, eleanor and i decided to walk around

she loved it

except when she spotted noah and hazel in their classes

and wanted them so bad

it was cute

i drove the kids home from school

and michael was here to greet us when we got here

olive needed a shoulder ride

 michael is an expert pizza maker so he helped make dinner

actually, he made the whole pizza and breadsticks 

while i made rice crispie treats

 noah likes to tease his sisters a lot lately

so i sent him outside to jump on the trampoline

 the kids all went out barefoot

despite the lingering snow in the backyard it's actually warming up a little bit lately

 they had lots of fun and got some energy out

 eleaonr came in first and needed a diaper change

i tried to keep her happy during it by singing to her

and when she was done she sat right next to me to sing with me

she is so smart and loves music

so she already knows some words and actions to her favorite nursery songs

like the wise man built his house upon the rock
do as i'm doing

and popcorn popping on the apricot tree

it's so cute

we also had a family home evening around the table

with noah and hazel (olive and eleanor were busy playing)

about all sorts of safety and what to do in an emergency 

or if someone attacks them

it really was a good day
