I forgot to wish everyone a Happy March. So Happy March, y'all!

7:00 Drop off.

So, I just bought a cute new prop for my newborn sessions. Everyone loves it. Ariel saw it yesterday morning and started loving on it. Even Alex has been known to sit quietly with it. But of course I didn't have my camera for those moments, but I did capture this one this morning:



Now I know I need to put a sheet on it before Abby cats all over it.

7:15 Breakfast - mixed veggies and oatmeal.

8:15 Changed a poopy. And it wasn't liqui-poo!

8:45 Left for preschool.

9:00 Dropped off Alex.

9:30 PALS class. Ariel is still not joining in. She did ask for a play phone today, but mostly she sits and watches and has a snack (today was cheerios). Adam had lots of fun though.

11:00 Brunchy-lunch. And Ellen jinxed us by saying how lucky we were that Ariel sleeps under the table, so of course she didn't today. But Ariel wasn't crabby and ate a piece of french toast. I got my mocha and tried Eggs Benedict Florentine, so it was all good.

12:30 We went back to the preschool for the Purim parade and party. Alex wore his Halloween spider outfit today:



Adam was a monster. Poor guy had to explain ALL day that he was a monster and not a dinosaur or dragon or lizard :(



And Ariel just wore Adam's sweater:



Mae-Mae wore a puppy suit for most of PALS but then didn't want it anymore:



The Purim party was very loud and crazy. Not my cup of tea, but the kids (even Ariel) seemed to enjoy it so whatever.

1:30 We finally left the party. Alex went home with Ted. We'll pick him up tonight when we go over for Shabbat dinner. Too fun!

I drove an extra 15 minutes so that Adam would fall asleep and I could have my afternoon to myself. Once again my evil plan failed. Adam did fall asleep but as soon as I put him on the couch he woke up and wouldn't go back down. Probably for the best, I wouldn't even know what to do with 2 hours of no-kid time. At least Ariel followed the script and napped.

2:30 Adam asked to poop and did so on the first try. Yay!

3:00 I let Adam watch Kipper.

4:00 Pick up.

Oh, and the hat - Ariel got lots of compliments today. Even though Jeremy said it looks like a colander. And speaking of Jeremy, I think he's sad that he can't call Ariel a floor ape anymore.

And Becky, here are the two collages. I'm in a creative rut.
