Charming Chapters

We picked out the girls’ outfits last night, and laid them out in the living room, and things just went so smooth and easy this morning. Emerson had a field trip, so she was sporting her bright orange 4th grade class shirt, and Addison needed her big poofy bunny for the car ride to school.

Luckily, one of the moms that went on the field trip took lots of photos and was able to send me some this afternoon of Emmie and her friends visiting the Capitol building downtown.

I decided to just take off the rest of the week to fully rest and recover, so I was at home doing just that. Our internet at the house was actually down today, so that made the perfect opportunity to do a whole new puzzle from start to finish. I even made a couple short little videos while puzzling too.

 

 

 

I did head out late this afternoon to pick up the girls from school, which let me get a bit of fresh air. And Addie surprisingly fell asleep on the ride home tonight.

I made a simple tuna salad for dinner, and made tuna melts with avocado, tomatoes, red onion and fancy sliced cheese, with some chips to keep everything quick and easy. I actually didn’t think the girls would eat this, but they both loved it and ate a good dinner.

Emmie and I read her chapter book for school and drank some hot tea together, and then she hopped in the shower. Addie had to disguise a turkey for her homework, so her and Daddy worked together to dress it up like Elsa! I’ll have to get a finished photo tomorrow, but it turned out very cute. And Emmie was working on the outline to her upcoming speech for class.

All the extra projects and reading and homework kept the girls up a little later than usual, so they were both very ready for bed and fell asleep quickly and easily.

I’m definitely feeling better now than I was last weekend, but one more day at home to recover will be very beneficial, before jumping back into the busyness and all the things, especially as we get closer to the upcoming holidays…
