ole schnikees: 2019

Tova: she says lots of "words" now: 'ma' is more (she also signs more while saying it), momma, dada, nana, wa for water, bah for book, duc for duck or truck, fsh for fish, says vroom when driving a cara around, she knows the animal sounds for: puppy, cow, duck, wolf, sheep, sometimes kitty, sometimes buzz for bee; she climbs up on everything: couchs, chairs at the kitchen table, stairs up & down, she LOVES books wants to read all the time, she'll bring you a book, read it then go get another and repeat as long as you can handle,

We took lots of walks this week especially since it's lilac season and we love to smell the lilacs!!!

Monday was supposed to be the only day of the week without rain so we went to Jodi's to play outside until lunch/school/nap time. it actually didn't rain much all week. Al worked.

Tuesday morning we went to carson park and then the library. Al worked. Trevor had school.

Wednesday morning we went to jodi's house again in the morning since it was Easton's last week at jodi's. :( we're gonna miss him!! i had physical therapy at 230p then picked up trevor from school. Al was off so we spent some time outside after school.

thursday i had my last volunteering at trevor's class. and i went to the chiropractor between that and picking trevor up. it was trevor's last day of school for the week (only 2 weeks left after this.) After we put the kids to bed, grandpa peter came to sit here while Al and I went to hangar 54 for drinks and apps with matt and Jodi before Jodi left for Greece (on sunday) for 10 days. it was fun and we laughed so much! jenny stopped by after work too for a bit.

friday morning the kids and i drove up to mom's house. she was watching tula and etta in the morning for a bit so we played with them. during nap i did a return and a little shopping. after supper the kids and i went to see my high school best friend megan, her husband dan, and their 3 boys collin (6), evan (3) and Ian (6 months.) then after bedtime i went to manda's house for a bit and we had gin & tonics and sat out on their deck. eva and elouise also put on a dance concert for us complete with tickets. Al worked 3p-3a.

saturday morning we drove home, the kids and I played outside for a bit, had an early lunch, got tova down for an early nap, then all 4 of us went over to carsyn's 1st birthday party. we ate, trevor played outside with the big kids, carsyn loved her cake, then we headed home. mom came down after the party and we played outside all night. trevor and I got the garden planted! it was gorgeous out!! Al worked 6p-6a.

sunday was another gorgeous day! after breakfast, mom and I took the kids to carson park again since mom wanted to see the new one. the sun came out and it quickly got hot so we went home, got the kids in swim suits and set up the water table. we played outside until lunch time when it clouded over a bit and wasn't as warm. then during nap/quiet time, mom and I weeded the front rock/garden beds in the sun! once Al woke up he went in and played with trevor a bit then trevor came outside with us when Al had to get ready for work. once tova was awake, mom, the kids, and I went to another park to play. once home we played outside most of the night and even ate supper outside.

Monday was memorial day but it rained all day long! mom went home in the morning, Al got up, I cleaned a bunch, then after lunch and nap and quiet time we went downstairs to play and work.
