This morning Nikki decided to sleep in a bit. Of course she chooses to do this on a pre school morning. I don’t blame her though as it was dreary out. I dropped the kiddos off and then headed to the grocery store. I was surprised I only spent $165.00 cheaper than my last bill. It was kind of nice to shop in peace but I missed the kiddos. They were probably having way more fun at school than shopping. I read the kiddos a book before leaving them at school. I feel like we hadn’t been to school in a while as we missed Mon and Wed so I just didn’t want to dump them. They had fun though. Of course when I got there Justin was getting hit by a foam bat and Nicole was getting run over with a bike. But I was glad to be able to be there to comfort them. We played out front for a bit then headed to the library. The kids were a little loud and played on the computers but they did sit quietly as well to help me pick out books. We had lunch when we got home then the kiddos played. They did shows and packed up a pretend picnic to bring to pretend school. The kids wanted to play and play but I had to stop them to give them a bath. We were overdue for a bath. They took one together and got along for the most part. I love when they do things together but know they are two entirely different people. I always tell them how lucky they are to have each other. After we went outside and went for a bike ride. We biked to our neighbors to return snow clothes. The kids were so disappointed no one was home as they wanted to see their friends. It was getting cold out so we came inside. I prepped dinner then played with the kiddos. We played Memory and High Ho Cheerio. Dad came home and he opened my new laptop and played with that while the kids brought up pieces of Nikki’s new bed upstairs. So cute both of them wanting to help. After dinner dad put Nikki’s bed together. She was thrilled. As soon as it was put together she was in her bed with a big smile. We have to re-arrange the room to make it fit a bit. I hope it ends up working out, I am a little worried. We took the box spring and put it on Justin’s bed, so we had to do some swapping. Now his bed is higher and looks much better. We read all the library books tonight. It was fun laying in Nikki’s bed with her tonight. Hopefully she won’t fall out. She did hug her Dora bed goodbye.
