7:00 Drop off the happiest Ariel I've seen in a while

7:15 I'm not going to spoon feed Ariel anymore (Becky, I know you stopped a while ago, but it's just habit with me). Ariel fed herself mashed blueberries and hot cereal. And fairly well.

8:45 Left to take Alex to camp.

9:00 Dropped off Alex. Today was finally bug day.

9:15 Quick trip to Starbucks. Surprised?

9:45 Trip to the Rocket Ship park. Everyone (even Sam, after a while) had a really nice time.

Ariel poured rocks on her feet:



Mae poured rocks on her feet:



Ariel poured rocks on Mae's head. Rocks are fun!



Adam said - Rocks are not as fun as you two babies seem to think. I will fly to the moon instead:



11:15 It was hard to leave the park when everyone had been playing together so well (all four of them were playing so cutely in the tube/slide thingy) but we did have to go.

11:25 Quick trip to the grocery store to buy bread.

11:35 Ran home for a minute to make a lot of PB&J sandwiches. Ariel finished her hot cereal that I hadn't put away and then had string cheese.

12:00 Pick up Alex and Ted from camp. We had a quick picnic before leaving. Ted had 1 sandwich, Alex had zero. There may be a reason Ted weighs 10 more pounds.

12:40 Got to swimming class.

I took this lovely picture of Ellen and Mae. I'm so glad Adam is over 2 1/2 and I don't have to get in the water. I love to tease Ellen about having to do the hokey pokey every week. Poor thing, she's been doing it for 4 years.



1:00 Alex and Adam had their swimming class.

1:15 In an effort to complicate things, I took Ariel, Mae and Sam home with me. Mae fell asleep in the car and transfered to Alex's bed. Ariel went right down for her nap. Sam played nicely in the living room while I cleaned my kitchen/dining room least Ellen fear that my house is infested with cockroaches.

2:30 Ellen got to my house with Alex, Adam and Ted. I took off with Sam. I dropped Sam off at his house to nap with Mr. Ellen (who works from home some days).

3:00 The last day of my dream job. I got to spend an hour tasting various Milky Way Fudge incarnations. Some were better than others, but they were all pretty good and very rich. I had a mild headache and felt pretty sick when I was done, but the paycheck will make it all worthwhile. I'm going to dump it into a Starbucks card for Ellen and I. Any guesses as to how long $150 will last us?

4:30 Becky picked up Ariel from Ted's Tae Kwon Do. Ellen said the girls slept until she had to wake them to go to the class.

And after I picked up the boys, I was going to stop by CiCi's for a take out pizza, but they were GONE. Very upsetting, for all of us.

CICI's is out of business??? I hope the one by the parents is still there :(

Pics at the park are pretty cute :)

Glad to hear you enjoyed the milky way tasting. Sounds fun and yummy
How can Cici's just be gone?? They must have realized $5 for a large pizza isn't a good price (for them) after all. Bummer!
