Grodio Kids 1-6-2011

Today is Thursday.  Abby and Adam slept all night in their beds.  Adam has been using the potty every day, communicating that he needs to go.  Except this evening he had an accident in his underwear.  He also was helpful with chores.  Abby woke up and ate her eggs and toast, got dressed after I picked out her clothes.  She got on the bus happy to go to school.  She came home happy but annoyed with Adam who was chasing her.  I notice Abby needs some space when she gets home...an adjustment period before the high energies of Linnea and Adam are there to greet her at the door.  
Abby hasn't mentioned her ear bothering her but is taking her medication each day like a big girl.
Tonight the kids ate pork chops, squash and rice.  No one cleared their plates so no one got rice krispy treats.  They took baths and and watch a movie before bed.  Abby was able to count backwards from 10 to 1 with out hesitation.  Good job Abby-girl.
We had a water main break on our street.  the kids were watching the back-ho dig up the frozen, muddy ground to patch the pipes.  Adam loved seeing the big machine with the bright yellow lights digging up the ground.
We are expecting 2-4 inches of snow tomorrow and a possible two hour delay going to school as it happend last month.  In that case, Abby's bus comes at 11 am.   If it accumulates, we are all looking forward to playing in the snow and sledding.  Abby and Adam are planning on going with my parents Saturday to the dance studio while I work and the kids look forward to speaking to their mom on Saturday evening.  Photos to follow.
