Week of April 21-25

I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!  I don't think we could have had a more beautiful day!

As you drop your children off today- you will see a lovely addition to our house!  A massive dumpster in the driveway!  As you continue further in to the house- you will see over half of my kitchen is missing!!!  Our complete


Kitchen overhaul that has been 8 years in the making is finally underway!  The next couple weekends will be be spent ripping out the rest of the 1970's cabinets and countertops and laying a new tile floor!  Then our brand new custom cabinets and countertops will be installed! There may be a fine layer of dust and we may have a few more microwavable or cold meals but other than that- the construction process shouldn't affect daycare!  Can't wait for it to all be done!

This week at daycare we have Travel Tots on Tuesday with Ms. Beth.

It was so nice to be able to be outside last week!  We went even got out for a couple walks!  The nice weather makes it so much easier to get out in the mornings as well as the afternoons!  This week we are supposed to be in for a bit of a cold front...so not sure how much we will be outside!  I am over playing outside int he cold at this point!  I will still try every day to get them outside for a least a short period to run off some steam, but we have plenty of more beautiful weather ahead of us!
