You are getting out of school early tomorrow, so we can take a trip to CHICAGO! (girls squeal) Ginger: Are we going on a plane? Me: No, we are going to drive. It takes about six hours to drive straight through, but we will take longer since we will makes stops. Rosie: Will we be staying in the house I was born in? Me: You were born in a hospital, and the apartment we lived in is now occupied by someone else. We can go see the building though. Ian: Are we still going to make brownies?

IDK Cheryl, the doctor took a swab and I have to call on Friday for the results of it. On a side note, the joints in my hands hurt. Both hands.

Love the convo....I want brownies too!

Seriously, how do people put stuff like that on the internet and have no consequences?

Oh my!! That's kinda cool. Steph, in my only somewhat professional experience, I actually think that Elli has pretty good writing for an end of the year 1st grader. I would personally not have any qualms about her writing at this point. I think it is just a matter of more and more writing practice, and also more reading. As she reads, her writing will general improve.

That's great Mel!

A sleepless night. Up yo have a cup of tea and see if that helps.

Mel has been a super trooper with MH. MH is fascinated with her and asks her a million questions a day. MH displays every emotion she has in the moment and is way louder then E. I hope for poor Mel the novelty wears off soon so she can have some space. It has been going great.
Don't know what is specifically keeping me awake. But hopefully the tea will help

Maybe it's the excitement for you too, you've got lots of things going on at the moment too Jen.

Do you have any sleepytime tea to drink before bed?

Mel is like a new toy, she'll get used to her soon and then be on to the next thing.

Don't like the taste of sleepytime. I did get another little nap in.

Up early to go walking. My neighbor and I decided to walk in the morning together, I think I will walk at night. By myself.
