Puzzle piece

We didn't do much yesterday. It was a pajama day...and we all enjoyed it. Alexis did managed to spill the entire box of crayons all over the floor in the hallway, which was so nice since the dogs like to eat crayons. I asked Cole to go over and help her pick them up...and he so nicely did. but then she started to throw the crayons because I guess that is more fun than picking them up. I then hear Cole tell her "If you throw the crayons you'll have to pick them up by yourself" and he starts to stomp away. She's none too happy about this and lets out a little cry. So he comes back and says, "fine, if you are going to be good I'll help you". Now I know what I sound like. LOL. Wednesday night at dinner Cole told me that when he was big like mom and dad he was going to build a new house. It would have a bedroom for mom and dad, one for him and one for Baby Doll. He told me that I would be allowed to help build the house. "You can put the carpet in. You and Dad...and one guy. Three of you. You can all put the carpet in. And then we can all live there, because this house will be old. You and dad will have a room and me and Babe will be down in the basement." Love the fact that I'm installing carpet - the one thing I have not and will not do - with Eric and "a guy". But my favorite part is...he's sleeping in his own room! A small victory that he is starting to think that way!

Here's a layout about his new pair of bibs, that have a pocket for his monkey (and some other friends). He wanted so bad to wear bibs on Tuesday but he's out grown them all. I did find some on clearance in his size at Target and snatched them right up. He was thrilled and wore them around the next day (wed). He got him self dressed and as you can see opted out on the shirt. I don't know how these two aren't freezing to death 1/2 undressed all the time. I'm wearing layers and they are wearing underwear...how do they do that??

Today (Thursday) started off pretty good. The kids were up at 6:30...which is a little early for me but they did both stay in their rooms all night. Cole still got up 4 times but never tries to crawl in bed with me. So I'm happy about that. While I ran to do some laundry the two of them were in the living room where Cole had a 100 pc puzzle all finished. Alexis takes one of the pieces and feeds it into the PS3. So I learned that:
Puzzle pieces DO: Fit into the PS3 & Turn on the PS3They do NOT eject from the PS3
I got quite upset as you can imagine. I did manage to get the piece out with a tweezers finally. Don't know what I would have done otherwise! So here's a pix of the puzzle piece in the PS3. Thank goodness for those little velvet flaps, that's all that was holding that piece from falling into the player.

Tonight was much better. The weather was 50 and we went over to Janna's so Cole and Cole could play. We then took all the kids on a nice 2 1/2 mile walk. The boys had to walk it, the girls got to ride. :) 5 blocks from being back Cole keeps telling me he's so tired. I'm thinking "GOOD!" maybe he'll sleep well tonight! After our walk and some more playing we took the kids over to Fazoli's for dinner. By the time we finished it was 8 and Cole fell asleep in the Tahoe on the way home. They were both sleeping in 10 mins. :) Got to love that.
Tomorrow is also suppose to be nice, so hopefully we'll get some more time outside so they can run off all this energy they seem to have built up over the winter. Eric is also home in the afternoon and the kids are looking forward to seeing Dad.
