Saturday we made it to basketball. It was fun. Fourth grade basketball has not changed since we had fourth graders.
He's so fast and strong.
That smile!
Pizzas!
This face painting was from the Blue and Gold banquet in the morning--very nice.
They played Animal Crossing for a while late in the evening and there was no fighting or crying at all.
This little darling is doing great. She's only been home 9 days but it feels almost like she'd never left. It's much busier in her family room than it was in the hospital, and there's more action in Grandma and Grandpa's family room too. She rolls with it. She likes it, reaching for toys and putting them right to her mouth.
Plus she does love to smile at that mama.
More artistry from the Blue and Gold banquet:
The one in the Halloween shirt came for a sleepover and she's way into make up these days, a straight up make up artist almost, putting glitter on Maria's eyelids this afternoon, who thought that might be much too fancy for an errand at Walmart, but she closed her eyes and cooperated.
The one in the braids had lots of ideas of things they could do, and they had fun, dressing all the baby dolls and making beds, tucking them in baby slings and back packs and taking a trip.
Look at all these babies, all dressed and put to bed.
I overheard a conversation about this name, Opal. One said it was OH-pull. The other said it was Oh-PAL. It went on for a bit, the discussion. I kept on dressing dolls and said nothing.
After supper I went to the fabric store because there was a 60% off sale on flannel, so looks like time to sew some blankets.
At the end of it all, we put kids to bed and called a fine Saturday night over.
So much love, Val
