Progress

Savannah slept in her bed all night last night! She came in my room at 4:00 and asked if I would lay with her for a few minutes which I did. She didn't come back in our room 'til 7:00! Tonight I read her two stories and left the room and I haven't heard from her since. Thanks Kidman family for having a routine we can follow!

Finally catching up

FYI - I started this post before I went to Salt Lake and I'm not changing it now.

Let me start by saying I am glad the Olympics are over. I loved watching them, but I didn't go to bed 'til 1:00 every night and I'm still trying to catch up on my sleep. Savannah even liked them and would say she wanted to do each sport she saw. I am fine with skiing and skating, but I draw the line at bobsledding. Also, did anyone else notice that Canada rocks?! Each time their national anthem played, not only did the athletes sing, the entire audience sang along. I didn't notice any group singing when we hosted the Olympics. Get with the program America!

Jeremy gave Savannah this little camp chair and a card for Valentine's Day. She loved them! The card sings "My Girl" and Jer recorded a little message on it too. Annie listened to it a million times. How much longer will she be satisfied with the little things?

No, Jer didn't have the chicken pox. Annie decorated his face with her gem stickers and then they both fell asleep.

Here's Savannah cruising on her quad at Lake Havasu. We went with the Ruffs and the kids had so much fun chasing each other on the quads and jeeps. Annie is a little dare devil when she drives, but it doesn't cross over to the slide.

Here's a glimpse of the playroom after Luke, Annie and Ike stormed through. It's so nice to be able to just close the door!

And here is a pic of my little "artistac." I don't know what that means, but Savannah always says it when she is painting. She was obsessed with using her easel and paints for a few days and I love the paintings she made but not enough to save them. I know I am evil, but I can't stand to have papers lying everywhere. I'll start saving the pictures when I can really tell what she has painted.

It was so nice to see everyone this past week. Thanks for visiting and crafting with me and for entertaining my daughter. (I said goodnight to her at 9:00 and left Jer to read her a story. He has yet to come out of her room. I told you he would have a hard time with the bedtime ritual.) A HUGE thanks to Sherie and Clark for letting me interrupt their week. Love and miss you all and can't wait to have you visit us!
