Oct. 16, 2007 - Rainy Days
It rained today-which for us is always a good and exciting thing. Daddy will be home!! (Landscapers don't like rain-they are afraid of melting) So, since Danny being home is always a big event, we tried to make the most of it. We started out the day by letting Mommy sleep in-at least for an extra ten minutes anyway. After everyone was dressed and breakfast was cleaned up (off the foor), Danny and Benjamin left to do some errands while Caleb and I "did" school and kept Ally out of trouble. We finished fairly quickly and Danny called to say he wanted everyone to go out to lunch before he had to go see a customer.
We load the kiddies up and head to Chick-Fil-A. They have a playground-this is a requirement for lunch outings! :) Lunch went fairly well. Alyssa managed to get all her food into her mouth and not on the floor, Benjamin only fell out of his chair once and Caleb stayed amazingly patient while waiting to go play on the playground. After Ally and Benjamin finished, we finally got to join the chaos in the indoor playground area. The best part about the lunch outing was the special in the Kids Meals-coupons for books from DK Publishing. (I think it was buy one, get two free) Caleb LOVES their books-they have all kinds of colorful picture books with interesting facts in them. (we just finished a farm one).
Since we wore them out on the playground, all children are sleeping peacefully. Except the big one-he's in his room creating a Lego army base. So...I'm going to sign off here and see about extending those ten extra minutes of sleep I got this morning!! :) Have a great day!

My kids love when Toby's home! They want him to do everything with them, and he is so sweet about it! He will usually play games with them read to them or "play football"/roughhouse.I'm glad you all had a great day as a family. I look forward to those and I'm sure you do too! :)
