Yesterday was really busy. We started the morning w/stuff like laundry, watering outside plants, gathering full trash cans, etc. After dinner, we headed to the pool in town for a couple of hours before my VBS meeting. The kids had a good time-I sure got tired chasing Ellie around. It took Ellie 3 visits to the pool to start playing in the water, now I can't get her out,except to run to the other baby pool (there are two side by side)! After my meeting, in which I took the kids to my MIL for that hour, I was not feeling good. By the time I got the kids to bed, I was feeling very poorly w/a slight temp, sore throat & headache. I went to bed early, but spent 3 1/2 hours later up w/Ellie who had decided she didn't need to sleep from midnight to 3:30 am. She fussed the whole time though, so I'm not sure what was bothering her. I woke up in the am feeling better, except for the throat & headache, which I'm sure is related to sinus'.
This am, we headed 1/2 hour north to a bigger town for supplies at Walmart & bulk stuff at the grocery store. Another full day and I am beat. The kids went outside around 3 pm to play w/my niece who was puttering around in the yard while her dad was working on the old hog barn. Later, Isaac got to spend some time helping Daddy, which always makes him happier by far.
At bedtime, I let the two older kids say "goodnight" to Daddy on the phone. For about a week, Isaac's been dialing the phone himself, then handing it to Anna. He's done a good job w/the numbers and they are both learning to talk on the phone for real, not just play ones.
