Our First Solo Week

This week we were solo. Daddy was at work, Gram went home, so our weekdays were just the five of us. Mom outnumbered by four kids. It actually went really well. We kept busy and I kept everyone alive. Success.

We started the week at Wilton Wildlife for their animal tracking nature hour. Not such a hit...

But sledding afterwards, though treacherous, was fun. No opportunity for photos when sledding with three kids and a baby...

The weather was so nice Tuesday I took the kids to the playground. A little too nice... very wet and slushy. At first at least one kid wasn't happy to be there, but they all ended up having a good time.

Later in the day Baby got his first bath.

It wore him out!

Before music class we took a walk downtown.

Wednesday SlimJim decided to eat his oatmeal all by himself.

Thursday I made the kids play outside. In hindsight, not the smartest idea, since they ended up swimming in the puddles...

And Friday our big excitement was taking Baby to his doctor's appointment.
