We started the new year by eating our favorite food: Café Rio! My kids even love it. We came home and put the little kids to bed and let the boys stay up to play games. We watched the Dubai fireworks display on tv and sent them off to bed around 10. Good times.
Little Miss Lucy started Sunbeams, finally!! Since she has a January birthday she has spent a long time in nursery and was very ready for Primary. She wore her new sweater Grandma Thacker crocheted for her. Her teacher is “Sister Sellers” who she talks about all the time.
January was moving right along and then all the kids (and Seth) got the stomach flu. It started with Matthew on a Sunday night and moved to a different child each day. I’m so thankful for a washing machine!! Thankfully it only lasted a day for each person. That week ended but the next week was “Snow” week. It actually only snowed a Tuesday but that meant the kids were out of school on Tuesday (they cancelled school before the storm hit) Wednesday, and they had a late start on Thursday. They had already missed Monday because it was MLK day. It was nice to have some lazy mornings but everyone got really bored really fast. I wish we would have packed up and gone somewhere that week.
I looked over and laughed when I saw Charlie in this reading position. He is all ready to walk out to the bus stop and is trying to get in some last minutes of reading. The book he was reading (Michael Vey) was from the county library so he was not aloud to take it school.
Matthew still loves to build tents.
Conrad has spent a lot of the month crying. He has had one cold after another. With him waking up a lot earlier in the morning and taking a shorter nap he’s not very functional. This was a happy moment he spent carrying around “Michael” in the Bitty Backpack.
