Dee and I made a HUGE mistake last night and forgot to wake Trey up before we went to bed and feed him his “gut-bomb” bottle. So, he was up about 10 times during the night until around 3am when I finally realized that he wasn’t just spitting his pacifier out and getting upset about it, he was hungry! Yes, I’m a bad mom…but anyhow, I was up at 3am feeding him and then he slept until around 8am. Can’t say so much for the other two, they were up early (a new pattern).

We made the best pork last night, had Mary and Alice stay for dinner. Basically it was 1/4 pork steaks dipped in flour, then in egg, then in bread crumbs and fried up. Not something I’d go for everyday but man it was tasty. We had a big spinach salad and peas to go along with it so that made it healthier. The kids loved it, too. We got the kids through the bath, into bed and we hung out and watched tv and clipped coupons. Somehow Dominic got himself out of bed and slept on the floor, crazy boy, but I got him back into bed when we went to bed. Too funny!

Took the kids to playgroup this morning and they had fun. Carlos loves playing in the toy kitchen there and Dominic colored and played with the dolls with Alice. Dominic is really an outstanding drawer…he’s doing lots of smiley faces and suns and you can really tell what he’s drawing. He’s singing tons, too and it’s very neat to see his artistic side coming out. Trey’s working on another tooth, that’s two now, and Carlos is busy getting into everything he can. He gets ahold of the phone so often I’m sure he’ll be calling some of you soon!

Busy day tomorrow, we are getting a new freezer! Mary’s dad works for some people who are moving (they are friends of ours, too) and had the inside connection and we got lucky. Can’t wait to actually have ice cubes, it’s been a long time since we had room to do that. Also I’m going to make food for Trey and now we’ll have freezer room to store it so I can make a lot at a time.
