A Recap and A Random

Yesterday was Day 2 of Snow Day 2011.

To say it was a rough day is a bit of an understatement.

Adison was sick of being stuck in the house (couldn't blame her).

Ainsley, well she was acting like a 3 year old (can't really complain).

Abby, well she decided it was her job to scream all day if I put her down.

It was way too cold out so we couldn't go play in the snow to burn off energy, so we were stuck in the house...all day.

I attempted to pull out games, little crafty things and even a bath with colored water.

They were all just temporary little fixes.

Today though, has been glorious.

Adison is back at school. (She is happy, I am sad though.)

Ainsley has been surprisingly compliant and chipper.

Abby has been all around happier.

Yay me!

We danced, played and watched Despicable Me.

Back to yesterday though.

We played some Candyland.

It was Ainsley's first time, I thought it went pretty well.

(Sorry for the glare.)

When Ains took a nap, Adison and I did some origami from a kit that K brought home.

From the box, it looked like fun.

The instructions were horrible, not so fun.

Then, after bath time, I did something that I swore I wouldn't do...

I cut Ainsley's "princess mermaid" hair.

It was time.

As much as she and I both loved it, but it was becoming too much.

She never wanted me to brush or wash it and she was looking like a ragamuffin.

She loves her new hair cut though.

Adison kept asking, "Does she look like a little me now?"

Okay, now for my Random.

I have a love of Fiestaware.

I love the colors and shapes of all the little pieces.

In fact, my Mom just gave me this beauty.

I have been eye-balling it for a while and she surprised me with it!

(For some reason, the color didn't come out right, it is more of a lime green.)

Now to the random, sorry I got off on a bit of a tangent.

I have to put my Fiestaware plates away in rainbow colored order.

Does anyone else have silly little things like this that they do?
