We had a good week. Just normal life with lots of children to love and nurture with a few distractions thrown in like car repairs, yard work, fridge repair, and appointments. We worked on finding housing for Kylie, studying for the ACT for Madalyn, and lesson plans for school. The middle kids worked on a play and then performed it for us and the neighbors. We went to the park a couple of times and the school breakfast or lunch each day. We also celebrated our baby's first birthday.
Friday: Talea turns one! We ate breakfast at the park and played while it was nice and cool.
Birthday girl!
Talea's birthday lunch: grilled cheese and a fruit smoothie.
The kids wanted me to take a picture because it looked like a hamburger and shake. Really it was raw cheese on 100% whole wheat bread and nothing but fruit and plain greek yogurt in the shake.
The kids eating Talea's birthday dinner: chili and corn muffins.
Talea ate 3 little bowls.
Opening presents. We just gave her toys that we already had but she hasn't seen.
Two light sticks 2 kids won in singing time.
I made healthy date brownies but they were not a hit. Way too dry. Talea didn't like them either but she did eat the yogurt with it.
She grinned at us when we started singing. It was so cute.
Saturday: playing outside while doing yard work.
Sunday: Trying to recreate the picture where I was holding her like this on July 1 of last year when she was 2 days old.
Playing in the hammock with Alexis.
