January 15th-21st

(1/15) Kathy's kiddos had the flu, so I took today off to chauffeur C around. I've picked up a bit of a cold, so took the opportunity to get a few more Zs while the boys were napping and C was at school.  The boys are boogery today too.  Lovely.

(1/16) I was home with the kids again today.  Nanan came to watch the little bits while I volunteered at C's school in the afternoon.  We had a good day, but I was wiped at the end of it, and bedtime couldn't come soon enough.

(1/17) Dad was home with the kids today.  Granddad came by just before bedtime so Dad and I could go out for a comedy show.  He said the boys were so funny - they headed right over to where we pile the blankets once they got sleepy, and subsequently went down pretty fast.  Good boys!

(1/18) Happy Birthday, Dad!  He was originally scheduled to work, but wasn't feeling well so took the day off and gave himself a five day vacation.  Nice!   I had to work today, but was home for dinner.  D practiced walking tonight and he's getting so confident.  He walked all the way around the island tonight.

J is now doing the "Nose-nose-nose" thing while holding his nose.  It cracks me up to drive them all in the car now.  There's raspberries, and noses, and "DaDADADAdas," plus C trying to talk over them. Maybe Mom needs earplugs...

(1/19) Walking boy in the house!  D is walking all over the place now.  Something clicked and he can do it now.  It's so cute to see the two of them running around here!

C and I went to Nana's (Sarah's mom) this morning for a scrap-booking day.  The littles stayed home with Dad, who took the day off so we could go out for birthday hockey later.  Nanan (my mom) came to watch the herd while we were out.  She asked me why I didn't tell her D was walking all over the place, but it just happened, so I hadn't had a chance.

Seriously, I do feed them!

(1/20)  Relaxing day here.  Nanan stayed over last night so she breakfasted with us and we had a nice morning together.  I got dinner started and then handed the reins off to Dad while I went out for a run.  The boys took a decent nap and were up by the time I got home.  We had a big dinner, then bath and bed.

(1/21) Woot! I have the day off today to hang with the kiddos.  We're all snarfy, so I think another day of rest is just what the doctor ordered.
