C-19 Week 5

We made it through week 5 of staying home!

Well that’s that… :(

It’s really hard to use your mouse when you are being attacked by a unicorn!

Someone is getting tired of their virtual school meetings. I hear ya, bud!

Tiny boss decided it was too nice outside to work late into the day. So the kids and I went outside to joy the awesome afternoon. Not sure the places my youngest was going with a bucket on her head… ;)

She made the right call - it was a gorgeous day out!

Not sure why, but Henry decided to rip off one of the giant elephant ears! I had to explain that we don’t generally rip them off, but since the damage was already done, we decided to play with the giant leaf.

Thomas even wrote the elephant ear a nice eulogy. Lol - this kid…

Sigh… I was trying to listen in to one of my meetings from the playroom thinking Natalie would happily play while I worked. Silly me! Instead she hit the button to turn off my computer mid-meeting…

But on the bright side, I figured out how to disable that button so she can hit it all she wants now and the computer will keep on trucking!

Look at the fun glasses her daddy made her from the Easter egg dyeing kits. She loved them!

Well as if she wasn’t destroying enough, she’s now going after the stickers in her room. :(

I did try to explain to her that if she rips all of the stickers, she won’t have them anymore. Clearly she wasn’t fazed…

I was pulling something out of the drawer that also houses the aprons and someone got super excited! Chef Natalie is ready for duty!

Not sure what she is cooking me, but she is sure excited about!

Of course when one kid gets excited about something, the other two like to join in! Henry decided to serve up some drinks while Natalie was cooking. :)

Glad that they still enjoy pretend play even though they are getting so big! It was a great pretend breakfast they whipped up. ;)

Cousin Gina sent the kids these adorable Star Wars themed bows and ties to wear for May the Fourth. She’s never seen it, but supports her cousins who are sci-fi nerds.

It’s getting brighter out and earlier - and the light was starting to wake me up too soon! My mom had sewn together panels for our wide windows in Alaska. Here we have two thin windows on either side of the beds, so I had to unstitch them to make them work. It was a bit tedious - a perfect activity while TV watching!

I’ve been buying more ice cream treats than usual and someone was getting jealous of them - especially the push-pops! While I wasn’t ready to give her a giant push-pop, she was more than happy with just a bit of sherbet.

Lol - do you think she wants a bowl of canned peaches?

You’d be wrong! She wouldn’t eat them, but she does enjoy pretending that she wants them.

Miscalculated a little on our walk and ended up getting a teensy bit rained on! Natalie was probably more excited about it than her normal walks. Since no one else was out and about, we let her run free and she was having a blast!

Me and my cutie patootie! Love this crazy toddler. :)
