We had green pancakes for breakfast, green mac and cheese for lunch at the park with pears, and corned beef and cabbage for dinner. Ben insisted that the gravy for the potatoes be green. Isabel wouldn't touch them. I don't blame her, the stuff looked like snot! We won't be making that again :) Maybe green mashed potatoes or something. 
Kandi and Zoey came over to exercise and since I had Sarah and Sam, I wasn't sure how good the workout would be, but it turned out to be really good. The kids loved to camp out around Sam to keep him entertained. Peek-a-boo was a favorite. We ended up meeting Holly and Carter at the park to play after Isabel got out of school. Kind of funny story about Ben.... All the kids were running around playing tag at the park. Next thing I know, Carter is crying and Ben is standing next to him. I asked Carter what was wrong, and he said that Ben had pinched him. I looked at what Carter was wearing and he had his jacked zipped up, so it looked like he wasn't wearing green. I asked Carter to show Ben his green on his shirt, and as soon as he did, Ben said, "oh, there it is. I sorry." Carter was fine after that too. He did make sure to keep his jacket unzipped though. Later at the park, Ben came up to me and said, "oh man mommy, I have water all over me." I asked him is he peed his pants and he said no, it was water. I asked him where he got into water at. He thought for a minute, and then said, "mom, the water came from my penis!" Luckily I had clothes for him in the car!
Onto another day..... we love the pizza dough from Winco. It is nice because there are no eggs or milk in it, and for under 3$ you can make 2 large pizzas, or in my case 1 large and 1 medium, cause I let the kids help :)
This little toad definitely keeps me on my toes. He has said some funny things this past week. He was helping me clean the toilets (his favorite job lately) and his head kept getting closer to the toilet. I was a little afraid that he would drink it, cause it smells minty, so I made sure to tell him that he would get really sick and have to go to the hospital if he drank it. He thought for a minute and then said, "oh, that what happened to nate nandma!" (Great grandma Maxine has been in the hospital for a broken hip recently) We made sure to tell great grandma at dinner on Sunday that the reason she was in the hospital was because she drank toilet water! It made her laugh.Ben's favorite movie right now is this one. He actually talks about killing 'the big wagon' all the time. It amazes me how early kids develop a sense of humor. He laughs at things I wouldn't think he would. I really do like this movie, which is good because we have been w
atching it at least once a day. Before you think less of me, let me explain. Ben got a cough on Thursday last week. This is nothing new, cause Isabel had one too. It seemed like just a regular cold and cough. I started to worry on Monday when he started whistling instead of breathing. When I could finally get into the dr, his oxygen sats were at 91-92. (They go to the hospital if they reach 90) He got 2 breathing treatments at the office and they told me that he had stopped coughing and wheezing/whistling because the junk was stuck in his lungs. Yep, pneumonia. Great. He hasn't had a ton of energy to do much, so I let him watch this movie! He is doing much better today. We did albuterol treatments 3 times today, and that with the 2 antiobiotics seem to be helping him feel way better. He is even running around trying to catch Isabel, you know cause she is the "big wagon!" :) As I said earlier, this little toad keeps me on my toes!I have a funny story about Isabel, but I will wait til the next post! She is a riot too!
