Happy Friday!

Well.
First, all the kids appear to be healthy, (with the slight exception of a residual cough), by healthy I say... no fevers. (I can't even say no contagious diseases until the test for Mono comes back!)

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

Today is Friday.

Today. I'm taking the day off of work. I'm going to check in, make sure there isn't anything that really truly needs my assistance... then I'm going to take the kids... somwhere. I don't know where, but it will be somewhere.

Also, it's funny, but I recently wrote a post on my hubpages... about the negative power of complaining... and it's been pretty popular! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA I have gotten several comments and "fans"

Ok... on to bigger and better fish to fry.

Day 5 of No Gluten.

Yesterday was meltdown city. However, we didn't get outside to do anything until pretty late in the day. Then we had to cut it short, due to a minor injury.

My oldest was standing at the corner waiting for us to all catch up (the kids were all on bikes, the younger ones have training wheels, so they can take their time, the oldest is a speed demon) So, she is waiting there for us to catch up. I'm looking at her... and she just appears to fall over.

Her explanation was she was day dreaming looking at a house, and she went to reposition one foot on the curb and another on her bike pedal and she missed the curb... and went down.

I gotta tell you. It was a sight to see.

That's not the first time I have seen her just sitting on her bike, ... then she just falls over. Like she forgot she needed to balance of something. It is quite a sight to see. Anyway, she put ice on her wrist and it feels better today.

Last night I took the kids to payless. The youngest had run out of shoes that fit. So, all three went... all three got new kicks. The oldest got a pair of Hannah Montana wedges (which she loves and is trying to convince me that they provide her with the extra support she has been looking for her whole life) The middle child picked out a pair of princess sandals that light up when you walk (I didn't know they made that that big) and the youngest.... picked out a pair of Vans. YUP. Black with colorful pink, red, blue, purple.... skulls. Oh yeah. I'm in for it.

They all love their shoes.

This will cut down on the 20 minute argument and shoe search and rescue efforts that occur whenever we have to go somewhere.... well atleast for the next several days.

That's it.

I'm going to fill up the pool this morning, so the kids can go in the pool this afternoon.

They are taking showers and baths today before we go anywhere

We are going to Morristown to the Healthfood store in search of gluten free pizza

AND

Maybe, just maybe something else will come up that will be fun...

Have a great day!
