What a Day
Henry is being very fussy. I think he may be sick on top of his tooth being almost through. His nose is very runny, he is sneezing a lot and his temperature is 99.3 an hour after having tylenol. :(
He is finally napping though! :)
Both big kids slept in a little bit this morning. :)
Lucy was singing a happy song about going to school in the van on the way there. :)
When we pulled in and I unbuckled her she said she didn't want to get out of the van. She always wants to go to school, so I wasn't sure what was up with that. :(
When I pointed out all the snow on the playground she happily jumped out of the van so she could get her gear on and be ready to go out with her friends. :)
The class went sledding! :)
Freddy happily ran around with his super hero cape all morning and played with his train. :)
Dave went to pick Lucy up at school for me so that I didn't have to put cranky baby in his car seat. :)
Lucy sobbed for 20 minutes because it was Freddy's turn with the bug book during quiet time. Very unlike her! Perhaps she is getting sick? :(
Henry is awake from nap already. That was not long enough. :(
That is 4 frowns and 6 smiles. Not too bad so far! :) I will go check if the big kids are napping in a few minutes. I hope Lucy is asleep but then I will know for sure that she is sick because that is the only time she naps anymore.
I am still typing because I am trying to let Henry cry it out for a little bit in the hope that he will go back to sleep because he is sleeping so poorly today. It does not seem to be working though. :( Oh boy! Well, I will say thank you again to Julie now for the awesome baby carrier she made me for Christmas, it is a life, back and arm saver on days like this.

She just made this Valentine picture for Henry. When she started it she said it was me but Henry woke up from nap and she switched it to be for him. She is so sweet to her brothers!

A Post About Lucy
Okay, I am exaggerating a little bit, but not much. We all already knew this of course, but it has been confirmed that Lucy rocks! :) They said she is a pleasure to have in class; she has lots of friends and the other kids tend to gravitate to her because she is so smart and gets along well with everyone. That is probably the best thing you could ever be told about your child!
This year before the conferences, the kids all had a turn to hang out with the head teacher (Ms. Gigi), one-on-one. The purpose of this was for the teacher to do a bit of kindergarten readiness screening. Lucy exceeded on every item. Most of her skills already go beyond what they will be expecting of her next year. She has excellent fine motor skills, she can write her first and last name, she can count past forty without help, she knows all of her shapes and can draw many of them. The best one of all though, she scored 20 out of 20 on the pre-reading assessment test! She is sooo close to reading on her own. (Tessa- thank you for telling me about starfall.com! Ms. Gigi said they use it in the kindergarten here.)
Henry is fussing so I have to be done with this post. To summarize, Lucy is just awesome! Freddy and Henry are too but the details on those boys will have to be another day.

He is talking to the fabric and biting it. Oops, he just spit up all over it. It's washable though. :)

Having the fabric all organized didn't inspire just me. We are trying to make a dress for the Baby Cinderella doll she got for Christmas. The plan is for Lucy to help sew the two pieces of the dress together and then I will do the finishing. I am thinking bias tape but I think Lucy is thinking ruffles. Wish us luck! I will post a picture of whatever we manage to make.
This is all of my quilting weight and apparel weight fabric. I am going to put ky flannels on the right side I think. I feel inspired now that I can see what I have!!!
