I know I've been a bad blogger lately. When I had Ava my best friend Amber (who has 3 girls) warned me that three kids was much harder than two. She warned me it seemed three kids take up so so much more time than two. At the time I thought to myself, uh-huh oh sure Amber, I can handle three and still have time for everything. The kicker is... it seems in the past year and a half I have not been able to do EVERYTHING like I used to be able to. My dishes pile up faster, my laundry needs to be done more often, it takes longer to get the kids off to bed. What's with that?!? The point of this whole paragraph is that while a year and a half ago I would probably would have been able to blog everyday like clockwork, now and then I forget, I now get busy, I now procrastinate and then realize I haven't blogged in a week.
I am making Alex a quilt for his birthday so the kids and I have been watching a few more movies than normal. If I have a movie on they all come and watch it and I'm not trying to crochet running in between the living room, kitchen, the boys bedroom, and the playroom. I get really sick of the Land Before Times and Toy Story so I've bee picking the shows. I don't let the kids watch PG-13 here so we've been watching some classic movies. I feel like sittig down to watch Jane Austen is different than vegging out in front of Wall-e so let me know if you disagree. In the mean time, we watched The Fiddler on the Roof last week. Kiara was singing "bud, dah, dah, dah, da" to the tune of If I Was A Wealthy Man. Adorable! Kiara is so musical! I Love it!!
We watched Emma last Friday when it was only Kiara and my kiddos. We also went to the golden arches for lunch. They all had fun on the playground.
Today we watched a bit of Becoming Jane wiht Anne Hathaway. I love that show! It's the story of how Jane Austen fell in love and her inspiration for Pride and Prejudice among other novels. LOVE IT! The kids had pretty much no idea what was going on but they talked about the horses and other animals on screen.
Today we also played with some new robots Alex received. He is really turning into a boy. He is no longer a toddler or a baby. He is a boy. I miss my baby when I see him shooting at the other robots.
Bella brought over an awesome toy the past two days she has been here. It is a Frankenstein that sings and dances when you squeeze its hand. They love it! It sings "Late one night I was in the lab, fast asleep on my cold hard slab, the master witched the switch and I began to rise, then suddenly to his surprise I did the mash, I did the monster mash..." Can you tell the kids love it? I have it memorized!
Tomorrow we're going to have an all out robot battle. For our art project we're going to color a back round for the scene. I think the boys will really enjoy it!
