On Sunday, we took the kids over to Thompson's Station Park
Monday was also a sunny day. Keith met us over at Crockett Park in Brentwood during his lunch break. We let the kids play for a bit and then we had a picnic. Daniel was really excited about the picnic part of the outing.
Keith took the day off on Tuesday (St. Patrick's Day). It was another gorgeous day, so we took the kids to Harvey Park in Spring Hill.
We had another picnic. :)
Etta and Daniel had a dentist appointment on Wednesday. This was Daniel's first trip to the dentist and he did so great! Grandma Mel and Aunt Jessie met us over at Dr. McNutt's office so they could help watch Alice while I went back with E and D. Aunt Jessie mentioned that she had three St. Patrick's Day cupcakes in the car for the kids and Daniel was so excited for a cupcake that I used the cupcake as a reward for behaving at the dentist. So, when he started getting wiggly in the chair, I would whisper in his ear that he should be a good boy so he could have a cupcake. Worked like a charm every time! (I tried to say it quietly because... well... we were at the dentist and I was telling him he could have sugar if he was a good boy. Ha!)
They got to eat the cupcakes after their nap that day. :)
Apparently, I didn't take any pictures the rest of the week, but on Thursday, we took Daniel to speech and I did my best to keep the girls entertained in an empty therapy room while Daniel and Ms. Lauren worked in the other room for an hour. After speech, the kids and I went to McDonald's to play and eat lunch. It's a pretty nice indoor play place and it wasn't too crowded when we got there. The kids had fun and got some energy out.
Keith took another day off of work on Friday. We ran some errands to Walmart, Lowes and Riverbend Nurseries to look at bushes and took it easy around the house for the rest of the day.
We really had a pretty great spring break week!
