What's happened this week?
The girls had a much anticipated play date with some friends. The pent up anticipation burst into intense talk and play the minute they saw each other. Unfortunately, that much charged emotion snarled the anticipated play time and they all four ended up in distraught tears at some point or another. But we'll try again.
Grace lost another tooth, and immediately announced another wiggly two - once started in this business of switching to adult teeth, she is working hard to finish it!
Aiden found a whopper cold/cough and has generously shared it with Grace and Jasmin. At one point we were wondering if we needed to take Aiden in - his breathing was so noisy and fast - but he is recovering nicely now.
Aiden has figured out how to go where he wants in his chair. Nice not to have to fish him out of the laundry room all the time, but now Mommy has to watch out not to fall over him as he follows her around - nice, but difficult in our narrow kitchen!
Grace has been on a reading binge, leaving Jasmin to find her own things to do - so the living room has been full of cut bits of paper, tape, pens and colors as she makes things. She made an airplane that she flew off the balcony to Grace on the playground to discover which balcony was ours.
This, on the day we let them stay on the playground to play by themselves! They enjoyed the excitement of the new responsibility - keeping the key card safe, and being able to come up and go down as they liked. This time they had good play with two old friends they ran into on the playground.
Daddy has been busy trying to sort out our lease - we still haven't signed one! - and juggling his other jobs, which now seem to be requiring either lots of night work and skype meetings. How glad we are that his "office" is not in our living room, but is still at home!
