Today after school, 2/3 of my kids chose more educational activities to participate in.

Bennett chose a game.

Annika chose books. I also need to mention that this little Kindergartner is a reading machine. She is taking such pride in her reading skills, it's just amazing to me. She just loves to read too, which is a bonus!

And then there is Bianca. She chose the iPad. At least she chose a book to read on there, right?

Today Annika and I were chilling in the kitchen and she was clearly bored. I asked if she wanted to scrapbook. She then asked me what that meant and I said, basically you get to put stickers, ribbons, buttons and pictures on paper to make a nice page for a photo album. I had her at stickers :) So I pulled out a few pictures I had printed from her pajama day last week and she went to town. Then Bianca came in from outside and wanted to get in on the action. And of course when Bennett woke up from his nap he wanted to do it too! We were scrappin' fools this afternoon and I have 3 wonderfully handmade pages for my Project Life album. I am thinking I'm going to have the kids do this much more often so that I can have them for the album. I know I will cherish them in the future!

Annika's finished page. She did a great job! She's very proud of it!

No picture today, I was in the doctor this morning with a fever of 102.7. I was diagnosed with strep throat and a sinus infection. Nasty combination. I literally felt like dying. It was terrible. The body aches were the worst part too. It hurt to sit, stand, lay, just be! What's worse is my throat was so swollen that I couldn't take any advil. The nurse made me take children's Advil at the clinic to combat my fever. Good times! I left there with some children's amox. and some Nyquil to sedate myself. I proceeded to sleep all day and all night. Horrible, horrible sickness!
