Where do I begin...???

Well Vivian had a carnival at her preschool tonight (Thurs).  They had pizza and tons of goodies at the bake sale.  Hit the jackpot with 2 bags of puppy chow from the bake sale that I managed to devour almost by myself. We also got to visit her classroom and chat with her teacher, Ms. Joy.  Well mom already knows her teacher and has seen her classroom but it was nice for dad to see where she goes to school. 

Vivian saw a few kids from her class, Mallory, Kate and Simon along with Lana and Janae (the neighbor girls). She played several of the games and got her face painted.  Her favorite game was the fishing game.  I volunteered Dan to work one of the games from 6 to 6:30...not thinking that I would have to man both kids.  After about 10 mins of trying to help Vivian with games, take pictures and keep Henry in one place I went to the car and got Henry's monkey backpack with a tail.  This way I could hang onto him but he still felt like he had some independence.  I swore I would never be one of those moms that put my kid on a leash.....kinda think I need to read that book "I Was a Great Parent Before I Had Kids"  Once again...never say never. So sorry of the pictures below aren't that great I was doing some serious multi tasking! 

The kids were playing out in the cul de sac this afternoon (Vivian, Janae, Haley and Henry).  The 3 girls would run and hid and Henry would eventually get closer to where they were and the girls would run and scream "Here comes baby Henry run!!"  So kind of playing hide and seek except Henry had no idea.  I felt sorta bad for him cause it would take him so long to catch up to them and then they would take off...but on the other hand it was pretty comical.  Henry eventually lost interest and went over to Jack's house to sit on his porch. 

We got new drapes so I included a couple pictures.  It turned out to be quite a task to get them up.  Severatrips to the store, multiple kinds of rods and hooks, but I finally think we are set. 

Vivian has soccer tomorrow and that's about it for Friday. Saturday morning we are heading to Weston, MO for the annual Applefestival and parade.  Sure those will be my next pictures.
