Here's a peek at the week that was... Violet helped herself to the strawberries, telling me excitedly, "I can wash them better all by myself!" Sure enough, she could just reach the faucet handle when she stood on the chair. Likewise, Cora can now reach the bathroom sink handles without standing on the stool.
After we walked the children to school, Genia and Owen stopped in for a half hour to catch up. The little ones busied themselves in the play kitchen. See the mess of play food? This is why Genia gave the set to us!
On Wednesdays we often go to the park with Genia for lunch. This week, we finally gave Johnny a gift for his 6th birthday, which occurred while we were in England. He's loving the Lego Ninjago sets, so the Ninjago comic books were a hit.
After work Stace sometimes sets up games with the neighbor kids. Our street is crawling with kids most evenings! This time it was baseball, with cat litter buckets for bases. Here, Johnny is running the bases while Stace fields the ball and throws it to Chris.
On Friday night, Ave spent the night. The girls played games before getting ready for bed. This time around, Ave and Cora stayed up late talking and drawing; it was so sweet to hear their giggles.
