Liam and Raina arrived about 8:30--Raina has on a darling blue plaid jumper that looks like the uniform at the private schools. Too cute!!! Is she 5 or what?
Liam had had his morning bottle. Gave him breakfast about 9:30. 1/4 cup rice cereal mixed with water and some banana. Also 4 oz. bottle. He went down for nap about 10. Seems in jolly good form!
Raina has played with play doh and now we're going to get out the Dora cards. She had only had juice. She played with a banana and ate a few oat squares. I've left them out for her to return to when she feels hungry for them. She seems a little sluggish today. Pooped once in her pull-ups and then put on underpants and has gone potty alone (and unsuggested) and washed hands. Very proud of herself. She is having a tired day I think. Her dad suggested she nap when she wants. I wonder if she would lay down by herself? I'll take them over about 1 or so for naps.
We are all packed. Had a furnace malfunction at 6 which set off the smoke alarm and a bad smell. The man is coming before noon. We are warm...it is just zone 3. Very complicated system, but he seems competent.
We just played the most hysterical game of Candy Land ever. She wanted all the guys to play, not just the two colors we chose. And everyone had to get to the candy castle. She won easily but didn't get it that SHE won; she wanted all the guys to get there. She sorted through the cards and found the same color as the guy and that's how he went. We finally quit (because it was pointless...) and she said it was really fun. I can see this game thing has a long learning curve. But I like it that everyone has to get to go to candy land, not just a lucky one. Don't we all deserve it?????

I like that take on the game ;) I asked another mom when they were old enough to play that game. She said 3 but you don't really follow the rules;)
