Hanging with the Aunts

Today was a good day.  We hung around home this morning and took a short trip to Wallyworld to get some hangers, Eggos, and a few other odd items that were needed.  Julia screamed the entire time - very, very loudly - but thankfully, it was a happy scream.  We just laughed and smiled as we went.  An older gentlemen even started mimicking her and laughing.

For her school work today, Madi did a pre-writing activity using M.Word and then transferred what she wrote into three cards in cursive.  We had her write three thank you letters to the three families that gave her clothing, shoes, etc...  We'd been meaning to have her do it for a while, but after getting more items from the Buckley family, it was a great time to have her do it.  I let her choose the cards she wanted to write them on and she did a nice job.

We met Kathryn and Tripp at Willow Bend for some play time.  The kids all loved it and I'm sure it was great for Madi to see Kaki.  It was nice for me to have some adult time too!  So thank you Kathryn!!!  We completely forgot to bring the library books to Kathryn so she came to our house to get them.  I feel like I've lost a whole section of my brain now that I'm juggling three kids and since I hadn't written down anything or moved the books downstairs, I just completely forgot.  We went to Michael's for a short trip - as short as it can be when wrangling two pre-schoolers, a toddler and a tween that are all wanting to grab things and look for things to buy.

Then headed home.  We're having chicken with ravioli and fresh green beans for dinner.  Then the usual night routine!  Madi is super excited about camp next week and it will be an amazing time for her.  She has a busy weekend ahead with Charidy's sleepover and time with Poppi/Mamaw.
