Another One Bites The Dust!!

Well, another day down!!

The Amigoes were good today and had plenty of time outside playing. Amelia had a good go in her Jolly Jumper while Mummy did some washing. The boys loved sitting in front of her encouraging her to laugh.

Xander is trying to resist his day time sleep but is still happy to go for a 'rest' Marshall had another good sleep, but Amelia took some convincing. Mummy felt like an ogre for letting her cry, but after about 15 minutes she was out like a light. She had to be woken up after 3 hours!!

We had wedges and quiche for dinner. Mummy's friend from work, Monica, delivered a stack of cooked meals yesterday and the yummy quiches were from her. Marshall ate it all up without any complaints, but Xander needed a little bribing ("One more bite and then another wedge!") Amelia had a lovely concoction of carrot and potato!
The boys had a bath while Mummy feed Amelia and then it was time for stories. Xander helped with the reading by adding in the huffs and puffs in the Three Little Pigs, while Marshall named all of the animals in his book.

All down to sleep without any trouble, although Marshall just woke up. Mummy and Daddy made a big mistake in bringing him out the other night because now he wants to do it all the time! Mummy was strong and left him in his bed screaming, figuring that if Xander woke up at least she'd have somebody to cuddle tonight, but he didn't even move! Marshall gave up after 5 minutes so lets hope that's the last we hear from him!

We miss Daddy so much, and it's only been 3 days! We hope he's having fun. Mummy reckons he owes her big time!!!!!!!!

Xander ~ Sat with his animals, making up a conversation between them! Mummy has kids in Gr 3/4 that can't do that!!!

Marshall ~ said circle, star and square in the bath when putting the shapes into the boat. Mummy was very proud!

Amelia ~ stayed happy on her tummy for ages after her bath! She was enjoying the massage Mummy was giving her.

Mummy ~ LOVES her new Enjo glove!!!! She cleaned the kitchen tonight for FUN! She can't wait to get her new bathroom glove to clean the shower! Daddy might come home to a clean house yet!!

P.S. Mummy reckons that if Daddy's not here she can do whatever she wants, so...the boys had their nails painted red today!! Only their thumbs, but Marshall did insist when he found the nail polish, and then Xander wanted in on it. Don't worry Daddy, it'll be removed tomorrow.
