Saturday
Today I went through all our nailpolish dividing it up among us three girls according to our Dress Your Truth types. Jolie is #1, Jenea #2 and me #3 - we don't know which type JJ is yet. She wanted her toes painted though. I don't know how anyone can paint a babies wiggly toes nicely. I sure can't.

Thursday
Today was the day Jenea and Jaren have been looking forward to - their last day of school for the year. It was family day. The students put on a talent show then we had a pancake breakfast and they handed out yearbooks to be signed. It was so fun! I was SO proud of Jaren, he participated in the play "A Comedy of Errors" and nailed his parts. Looking forward to what next year brings at their school. They've grown so much!

I'm crazy about this smoothie - Blueberry Blast - 1 cup blueberries, 1 tbsp coconut oil, 1/4 cup walnuts, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1 cup water. Yum!

Jenevieve walks around the house saying "money". So I gave her $4 and she tore one of them up. Hmm, maybe I'll stick with giving her coins instead.

Day 128
May 9th, 2014
Friday
Jadon, JJ and I took Jaren to play practice out in Beaverton. We had time to kill so we went to the Goodwill, had a snack in the park (our van was surrounded by cops because the lady that parked next to us was getting arrested so we couldn't get out and went to the park to wait), went to another park and played and went to the dollar store.
Day 127

Jaren typed up a "to do" list. I love that the children are learning to be responsible with how they manage their time.

I picked up my little travelers (and grandma and grandpa) tonight. They had an incredible vacation - they went to an aquarium, went snorkeling, zip lining, went hiking, played in the pool, swam in the ocean, ate out a whole lot.

Day 122
May 3rd, 2014
Saturday
I went to Hood River to teach a class tonight, then I headed on to The Dalles to visit Grandma Joy and Jennifer. Jennifer and I went grocery shopping then I broke mom's new blender in and made her a bunch of green (and pink and purple) smoothies hopefully to last her a week or two.
Day 121
May 2nd, 2014
Friday
We were at the grocery store today picking up just a few things, so I let Jenevieve walk with me instead of putting her in the cart. She found the tomatoes in the produce section and decided to taste a few of them. I hadn't intended on purchasing tomatoes, but that's okay, Jude will eat them.
Day 120
May 1st, 2014
Thursday
This was a piece of bread. Jude is taking after me, filled the house with smoke and set off the smoke detectors just like I often do.
Day 119
April 30th, 2014
Wednesday
It was hot outside. I got JJ dressed, then she asked me to take off her clothes, leaving her diaper, so I did. She took off her diaper, so I thought I'd bring her toilet upstairs and let her get familiar with it.
Day 118
April 29th, 2014
Tuesday
Went on my date with Jude today. It was warm and sunny so we took a bike ride to the dollar store and let him pick a toy. This was something we passed on our way and I rather like the idea.
Day 117
April 28th, 2014
Monday
We were so distracted and excited while in the airport today that I forgot to take a picture of my three little travelers while waiting for their flight to HAWAII!!! Grandma and Grandpa Tuttle invited Jenea, Jaren and Jolie to spend a week with them in their condo on Maui. This is their plane getting ready to take off. So grateful they are able to have this experience and so proud of the children that they are confident enough to travel so far by themselves and that they are SUCH good people!
