S loves to put on her cape, and run around the house with her hand in the air (not sure where she got that from) saying "Super S!" Last Sunday night was the case as well. The outfit she chose made me smile. Candycorn hat and tights, Popsicle pajama top, and pink cape. She was SO proud of herself :)
We had some really nice weather days this week. We took bike rides (at least Scarlett did and I followed her), played at the park several times, and had outings with friends. It was nice to not be super busy and to still have time to just play together :) Since her cousins have gone home (the ones who live in Oregon and are too far away to see often) she has asked about them and where they are. We keep their family picture on the fridge and she talks about all of them. It is nice that we got to be able to see them so much while they were here :)

We finished up our laundry room Tuesday evening. Unfortunately before then S had had a rough nap time and all bedding had to be washed. We are so grateful for a kind neighbor being willing to help us out! You'll have to ignore the half painted tan wall. We're putting cabinets in and I didn't find it worth my time to pain the area that was going to be covered up :) Hopefully we'll get cabinets in in the near future!

We are really lucky to be so close to so many great things for kids. We went with a friend to the Dinosaur museum one day. S was digging for fossils in the sand here. She loves going to museums, but usually refers to them as "a-zee-ums"

We had numerous days this week with numerous meltdowns. S definitely had her hard moments. Usually seeing pictures helps make her happy. We took a few of ourselves to brighten the mood...and it worked :)
For dinner and date night we made Paella. This was not a cheap dinner to make because of the saffron...which we didn't have on hand, but was delicious! We said it is definitely something we will make again. S couldn't wait as long as it took to make, so she kind of ate twice. She loved the shrimp. She picked it out of hers, and then out of mine as well. I love that she loves so many different kinds of food. It's fun to try new places with her!
