Last week was full of happy chaotic madness. What wonderful memories were made, but boy was I exhausted. Every single day.
Tuesday Gretchen had kindergarten assessments, so I woke up early to get dressed, and to make sure we were all ready and on time.
We walked in the door right on time at 10:40.
Afterwards, we had to run to Target to get milk and pick up a few birthday presents. Poor Addy hates her carseat, especially if the car is not moving, but I thought our trip in wouldn't take too long, so I left her in the carseat and put it in the buggy.
I was wrong. She cried the entire time. I looked up, and Meggie had turned around in her buckle, put the paci back in Addy's mouth, and was rocking her carseat back and forth. She's such a good little helper.
Too bad it didn't work.
Tuesday afternoon Gretchen and I spent nap time curled up on the couch watching a movie.
I was watching a recorded "Cool Pools" on HGTV and Gretchen decided to make her own pool out of crayons.
This is what my living room floor looked like:
Megan and I ended up cleaning up the crayon mess because Gretchen through a fit, therefore she lost all coloring privilege for the next two weeks at home.
I put Addy in the bouncy seat and she was actually happy for more than 5 minutes! I had to take a picture to record this first. However, she began fussing right after the picture was taken and posted to Instagram. Thanks for making me a liar Adalyn.
Megan wanted her picture made with Adalyn (again.)
Addy is beginning to have her first smiles! She smiled around 6 weeks, and I wasn't sure if it was a real smile or a gas smile, but these are real people!
She has a tiny crooked little smile where the right side of her mouth curls up, but the left side stays straight.
My mom and grandma showed up Wednesday afternoon. After Megan's nap time, we went for ice cream, came home to play outside, ate dinner, bathed the girls, and I fixed Gretchen's lunch for the very first time:
I had to leave her a little lunch box note :)
Thursday morning was Gretchen's first day of school!
On Friday, DJ was able to take Gretchen to school. I was thankful that I didn't have to get up and get dressed right away, and could sleep in a little bit, but I decided that being home with two girls is much busier and crazier than being home with all three girls!
I had Megan dressed, but I swear she took her clothes off at least 5 times. I think her daycare is going to hate me in a few weeks. I can just see Megan taking her clothes off in front of her entire class, or on the playground, or in the hallway. That's what happens when we're home all summer. Sorry!
She enjoys bouncing in Addy's seat.... at least someone does.
Addy had spent the first part of the week sleeping happily in her swing, but she was not having it Friday. I think her Gee and great-grandma spoiled her Wednesday and Thursday!
I showered through her screaming, and was finally able to finish getting dressed after Megan went down for her nap.
I had about an hour and I worked on a few hair pieces, that i'll share with you later this week!
Then, I had to wake up this sleeping baby to change her and feed her, so we could pick Gretchen up from her 2nd day of kindergarten.
While we were in the carpool lane, I turned on a Veggie Tale DVD and gave Meggie a box of raisins and fruit snacks to attempt to occupy her. She brought Doc and her blankie along with her.
When we came home, I cuddled with Addy to get her to sleep. I think she was tired because she cried the entire time we were in the car.
Gretchen said she had another great day, and she said she even had homework. She finished tracing her alphabet, and then went upstairs to her room to play.
I set nothing out for dinner, and since DJ's not home to eat with us right now, the girls and I decided that pancakes sounded delicious!
After dinner we settled in to watch "Up" and then I tucked the girls into bed and worked on solid color boutique bows.
What a perfect way to end the week.
