I woke up a ton of times last night, ugh I hate that. I have been sleepy all day now. I worked at pre school today. The kids helped me set up. We set up a big obstacle course and the highlight was playing kick ball. The kids did great and it was so cute. Justin and Nikki were really good kickers, I know I am bias but it is true. There was a field trip to the firehouse today. So fun. I think the kids liked squirting the hose the best. The kids got to climb and sit in the fire truck. Here are some pics from the firehouse:

When we got back to school Ms. Donna read a book then it was sharing time. The kids brought Lady and Tramp. So funny everyone thought they had Chip and Dale, Nikki was so happy she fooled everyone. It is not often I have my camera at school so here are some pics from sharing:

After sharing we had snack then headed outside again. Nikki and Justin just wanted to play more kickball. We came home and had lunch. I convinced them to go to the grocery store. I made a big deal that we were team Sanders and we would have fun there. The kids got lots of samples and helped pick out food. They ended up having a good time and they picked out a pig cupcake to share after dinner. It was funny when they couldn’t agree on which cupcake and I said then we weren’t going to get one, they immediately agreed. The kids helped bring in groceries and put things away. I love when they are so helpful. I then tortured the kids and made them take a bath. Justin actually took a quick shower as he wanted to race cars. Nikki took a bath and pretended that she had a drink stand. She had every drink available. We went outside after bath. The kids pretended to be dogs and I threw a frisbee for them. Finally they decided it was more fun to play just frisbee. While we were outside dad came home. The kids watched a little TV while we made dinner. The kids had their minds on their cupcakes but ate a fairly decent dinner. After dinner Nikki and I went up to play doll house together. Then we colored as well. Dad and Justin raced cars. We read lots of books and the kiddos went right to bed. I always worry about fairness between the kids. Justin is always quick to give in to his sister. I am trying to make sure we read in both rooms and he gets some say. Dad may be up late tonight doing some work. Luckily only a few more days on call.
