Little Lambs

So...things got off to a rocky start yesterday. First, we were lost as to whether or not Princess had ballet! See, her teacher never showed up for her last class in December, and never called! I found out yesterday am (when she finally called back), that she was in the hospital for a short time (very vague) and that we WOULD be having class in the am. Soooo, with only half an hour until class, I could already tell our day was going to be rough!

Anyways, after dropping off Princess to ballet, Junior, Marshmallow & I went to the library to return (and pay our fines, I seem to have a memory lapse when it comes to due dates) a few books. Then to the playground to play while waiting for Princess, where we were sprayed by the stinky well-water sprinklers, trying to get out of the car!

In my mind, we would go home, eat lunch, take a nap, then start school for the day. Boy, was I wrong! We did get home and eat lunch, but that's where things went bad. Princess & Junior did NOT want to sleep. They ended up playing in their room for over an hour before finally nodding off. To make matters worse, they took a VERY short nap which made for a VERY grumpy Junior! We did get to get some schoolwork done from our Little Saints program. The kids had a blast sewing and stuffing their own little lambs (The theme this week is "In the Country"). We learned "Old McDonald", read a picture book and of course a poem. (Junior ended up having to take a 2nd quick nap because he was just waaaaay too grumpy!)

Here are some pics of the kids working on their lambs (you can see Marshmallow in the background just hanging out in his booster seat):
