Tunnel Time!

Tuesday March 23, 2010

Both kids are still sick, ooze dripping out of their noses in a steady stream.
But in better spirits than last week.

When I arrived, Aila was at the tail end of a 3-hour nap. Willy and I put a new outfit on Teddy Ruxpin while Kris got ready for work. Then Willy bust into Aila's room to see what Mama was doing in the bathroom and Aila woke up- something he proudly took credit for "Aila's awake because of me." Hit that nail on the head buddy! But it was time for her to be awake. She ate, then Kris headed to work, and we got busy with the kids' giraffe tunnel.

They both had a ball crawling through there- usually together. One would head in and the other would head in after, ready to tackle, tickle or love on the other!

They really are sweet together.

Other activities included dancing and singing along to the music table, and of course playing race cars. Willy learned to say Matt Kenseth pretty well and was awfully proud of that fact.

Look at the grin! Its TOUGH getting this guy to give me a decent smile these days, so even if its a little put-on, I'll take it.

Before we knew it, Matt was home, and the workers arrived to scope out the plumbing situation with their shower that needs to be replaced. And Scott Mazerall stopped in to catch up with Matt. We all hung out for a few, and then I headed home for the second best part of the night- Rescue Me, Season 5 on DVD care of the library (read: FREE)! Unfortunately its usually more fun than it was that night since the old Dell laptop contracted a virus and I spent most of the time multitasking trying to get rid of it (unsuccessfully). Ugh.

Oh well. It was a great day anyways.
