Dennie Kids: February 17, 2011

Belated Valentine's!

Highlights from today: (click here for pictures)

• The kids haven’t really adjusted back to waking before 7 so we are still sleeping in-this morning Robby’s alarm clock started waking us up.  The kids got ready fairly well and we even had time for a little bit of breakfast
• Graham didn’t do too well at dropoff-there was kicking and screaming and just plain going nuts.  Campbell did great as well as Anderson and Reagan.  Anderson said a few times on the way to school that he hoped Ms. Wendolyn would be back and she was.  He had a big smile on his face when he saw her.
• Graham had a big day at school-painting, playing outside.  But when Mom picked him us the first thing he said  was “I didn’t get my valentines”  You should have seen his face when I opened up his bag and showed him that it was stuffed full of valentines. 
• Reagan and Anderson had a big time at Grannymom’s house after school.  They went on a few walks, chalked the entire driveway, rode bikes and even colored.  Mom didn’t have to beg too hard for everyone to come home since she mentioned that had their valentines to go through
• Once at home, I let everyone open up their bags and eat up.  Seriously, I opened up every piece of candy that asked for.  I even heard the term “greatest mom ever” being tossed around.  They ate until I thought Reagan was going to be sick.  They loved reading their cards but especially loved their candy.
• Dad made it home and we ate supper and then everyone played in the den until bedtime.  Seems like everyone fell asleep fairly quickly-still tired from our trip (at least Mom and Dad are still tired)
