Photo Every Hour: February 21st

This is entirely too early to be woken up on a day when the older two don't have school...

7:00 Thanks no thanks for the early wake up call Matthew (although I suppose I didn't hate the cuddles)

8:00 Morning stories...

9:00 ...Give way to morning games

10:00 Snack time!

11:00 William tried to teach his brothers how to play "Set", a game he learned in ULE. Garrett actually picked it up pretty well, Connor not so much

12:00 My pokey eater finishing his lunch

1:00 Trying to get caught up on homework from the two sick days he had to take right before the four day weekend

2:00 As close as I get to "down" time to read with all four boys at home

3:00 Trying to get caught up on laundry... I lost count, but I think these were loads three and four for the day (out of a total of five or six)

4:00 Also behind on dishes... So many dirty dishes...

5:00 I was very dubious of this "game" as they were setting it up, but I'll be honest--we didn't have to take anyone to the ER, so I suppose it was a success (also, who would have guessed this kid threw up yesterday? Kids are weird)

6:00 That's a wrap on dinner!

7:30 So I forgot to snag a photo during snack time at 7:00, but this photo is way cuter anyway--the older two recently discovered audiobooks, and Connor and Matthew also enjoyed listening to the book (and turning the pages of whatever random book they could find)

8:00 Bedtime for my favorite silly four year old

9:00 Things I should be doing: balancing the budget, writing the PTO newsletter, working on Matthew's and Garrett's birthday blog posts. What I'm doing instead: randomly looking through old pictures on the laptop. Seems productive, right?

10:00 Proof that I didn't waste the whole night being unproductive 

After William being sick on the 17th and 18th and Garrett getting sick on the 20th, a relatively early bedtime was much needed (after a fairly productive day, if I do say so myself)
