Wednesday

This is the only way to separate the children when they are misbehaving. Just kidding. Aaron was upstairs playing and we were down here with Kara. Then Aaron came down but he can't get over the gate on the stairs without hurting someone or something so he was waiting patiently for us to get the gate. Meanwhile Kara was just watching him from the other side. It made me laugh.

Well, they fixed the drain on Monday and Tuesday they spent most of the day repairing the ceiling and the wall. The ceiling looks o.k. but the wall looks horrible. They didn't use the same color paint so it looks really awful. I need to go ask them if we are going to have to repaint before we leave or if they will do it. Hm..The funny part was that Kara was talking to the guys working the entire time she was awake. She was babbling on and on and even asked one of the guys if he wanted to brush teeth, since he was putting up the towel racks in the part where we brush teeth. Too cute. Those guys were smitten!

Aaron had a field day at school yesterday. it was a little obstacle course and he loved it. He told me all about it when I picked him up. He said it was a pirate theme so they were throwing cannonballs (playground balls) over the net at the other pirates. He had to search for gold, which was gold painted rocks and other things like that. It sounded really neat. They are really creative at that school.

Aaron made me cry yesterday. We were listening to butterfly kisses and Andy got emotional. Aaron asked him what was wrong and he said that he was thinking about when Kara gets married. Aaron said why would you be crying about that. Andy told him because he would be happy. Aaron said, "oh, but she would be leaving you so it would make you sad." Wow. What a smart boy. I know, I am his mom so I am biased but I really think he is an amazing little boy to pick up on that.

Well, so far today I have watered the grass and tried to vacuum up the leftover sheet rock. Very exciting stuff. Oh I also painted my toenails. It was very exciting. I was just glad that I didn't have to wait here for any more work orders to be done. Kara and I actually got to go for a walk for the first time in a while! Well, I will leave you with some cute pictures!

One tired Baby!

On the phone!
