It has been a slow moving week. It was nice that Elijah actually had a day off. It has probably been 3 months since he had 2 days off in a row. He had to work on Saturday, of course, but we had Sunday and Monday. We found, completely by accident, a dollar movie theater and went to see Kung Fu Panda. The really, really nice part was that it was 50 cent Monday so it only cost us $2 to go to the movies! It was a cute movie, and Avery did okay, except 'needing' to go to the bathroom 3 times.
The kids are getting pretty creative. This first picture is of their 'house' that they build just about every day in the front living room. They rearrange the entire room and make it a complete hazard to try to walk in, but at least they are getting along! See if you can spot Avery...
Benjamin actually gave Avery permission to go into his room while he was at school the other day, which was nice for me because she disappeared for a long time and was quiet! Quiet at least until she figured out how to get up on his top bunk but couldn't get down. After that fiasco she was quiet again for a while then came downstairs dressed as follows:
She had gotten into his hamper and dressed herself in about 3 of his shirts. She was very proud of herself. She has just figured out how to dress herself and is adamant that she gets to do it. We had a pretty big fit yesterday because she did NOT want me to help her find the strap to her shirt even though she couldn't find it. She got very upset when she caught me doing it anyway. Oh well. Pick your battles! She wore that shirt backwards for quite a while yesterday.
