It's been a hectic week. I had a major stakeholders meeting with my leadership group. It went really well but it was a lot of extra energy. Today my boss was kind enough to give me most of the day off for free; didn't need to take any vacation time or anything. I spent almost the entire day with Mona. We hung out and eventually I got a lot done on the house. Maddie spent this afternoon and evening at Grandma and Grandpa's house. She was so unhappy when it was time to leave because she was having so much fun. Tomorrow the plan is to head over to the Children's Museum because they have a full scale mock up of Sesame Street. It should be pretty cool.
Anna is approaching 5 months and doing well on just milk. She watches us intently as we eat and her little mouth chews in sync. It's going to be a lot of fun when she starts eating "real" food. Ryan is really looking forward to feeding her.
Maddie's drawings have taken on a new life this week. Today she brought home pictures with rainbows, flowers, butterflies and people. It's the first time I can remember butterflies and rainbows. Monday will be the end of the two week "No chewy, hard crunchy candy" rule. She'll be very happy to chew gum again; it's the only thing she's missed.
This week Ryan is going to plant starter seeds for the garden. He has a very elaborate plan for the garden this year with several plating phases. It will be fun to see how it turns out. Last years crops were great, so it should be another good year. We're looking forward to seeing our raspberry, blueberry shrubs, peach and cherry trees grow this year.
