Almost caught up----vacation day 3----wild animal park------today's actual musings






Ariel was finally able to go back to school today, which meant that I could finally leave the house. So I went kinda crazy and ran all over the place regardless of the bad road conditions. I took the other kids to story time at the library (30 mommy points for me), drove carpool for preschool, went to Old Navy and got tons of great deals on clothes for the whole family, went to Albertson's for odds and ends, and took Ariel to dance class after school. I even managed to a read a book with each of my kids today. My goal this week for becoming a better mom is to spend more time with each child individually by reading a book with each one of them.
Grandma Lori gave Ariel and Adriana Webkinz for Christmas and we just got started with them last week. It was a great way to escape cabin fever and to keep from going stir crazy, but we may have started to annoy Erin and Rebekah by asking to get their kid's webkinz online. Now that life is getting back to normal, we probably won't be spending as much time with them. I started playing the games a bit to earn extra money for them because Ariel and especially Adriana are a bit young for it. There is one game like scrabble that Ariel likes and I think is good for her because it helps her learn how to spell words. I am rambling. After I post a bunch of pictures today I am going to have a fairy entry hopefully tomorrow.
