Small Successes

This has been great for me! I'm trying to look at my days in a more positive light & am finding many things to put in this weekly post.

1) I made homemade baby food for The Saint. Why did it take me until the 4th child to discover how easy this is? He loved the applesauce & the pears. Next up - bananas!

2) Continuing w/ the spring cleaning, I did The Princess's room & it only took Mon. & Tues. to do it. Her bed frame & headboard have been in the basement for a while. So, in clearing out the basement last week & wanting to make her room look a bit more like a bedroom, I put her bed together Tues. She loves it & couldn't wait to show Daddy when he got home from work.

3) I went grocery shopping at Aldi yesterday. Not a success alone, but it was a big trip & I did it w/ all four munchkins about 1/2 an hour before lunch (not very smart, right!) Anyway, they were really good this time around. I'm sure the bribe of buying Lunchables for them didn't hurt matters any!

4) Yes, I know it's only supposed to be three, but I thought of another anyway - On Friday, the first really nice day in quite a while, I did not freak out when The Archangel fell & cut his chin on his scooter. We ended up at Urgent Care & just enough of a gash to need two stitches. It took two nurses & me to hold him down for the numbing shot. Why did it have to be the most sensitive of our munchkins?!?
