• Thankfully, everyone slept all night in their bed.  Campbell did stir as we were going to bed but Robby was able to calm her down and get her back to sleep.  She has felt much better today-a bit of a runny nose but she didn't act sickly today nor did she show her body as she did yesterday.
• We left pretty early this morning so I could take everyone to Grannymom's house and then make it to drop Graham off at school on time.  Graham had a few minutes at Grannymoms and then was happy to race me to the car to go to school.  He really enjoys school and kind of likes getting to do something that everyone else doesn't get to do.  We made it to school 4 minutes early-plenty of time to get a drink from the water fountain-big time stuff for G.
• Keaton spent the morning practicing walking, Campbell worked on her puzzle that I had sent as her school work, Anderson played baseball with Grannymom and Reagan spent a lot of time playing doll house.  
• Graham was delighted that Nonna picked him up from school today.  The original plan was for me to pick him up and then it changed to Robby picking him up and before 9, Nonna was the one who was going to pick him up.  He ended up spending the entire afternoon with Nonna and then Pops.  Graham was even able to go and see Beebee and Papaw.  Oh, his picture that he brought home from school was many little squares glued on a piece of paper.  I had seen everyone elses in his class and his was the best-his page was completely covered with paper.  I love seeing that he is doing exactly what he is supposed to do since I worry sometimes about him since he is the youngest in his class.
• Once I brought the others back home, Campbell had a nap, Reagan and Anderson breezed through school and Keaton took a 30 minute nap and then was ready to get up.  I tried to convince her to continue her nap but she did not want to.  She played in Robby's office with him while he worked until  Reagan and Anderson coaxed her back to the school room.  
• After Robby made a dust storm in the yard while mowing, we all loaded up to eat pizza at Nonna and Pops' house.  Graham was happy to see us but wanted to make sure the kids didn't knock down his building that he had worked so hard on.  We all had pizza and then the kids had their showers before we loaded up and headed home.
• At home, Robby and worked on picking up a few things outside while the kids watched a movie before bedtime.  Everyone must have been tired because they are all sound asleep!
