Mama/Daughter bonding. We had a lot of fun doing our toenails. We bought the toe art at W-mart.
Ryann and Kyla having a teaparty under the school table.
Tara and Ryann having some quality time. Tara is smiling at Ryann.
What did he actually do all day? Take care of his sick wife. We've been sharing this bug for a week or so, and while this was my second turn, it was horrible!! I will not go into detail, but I'm sure you can imagine. Thankfully, Tara slept next to me nearly all day so Daddy could look after the others. Kyla has it now, let's pray it goes away soon!
Ryann and her pals, trying to wake up!
Ryann tantrum. Passive aggressive? Well, it doesn't work, Kiddo!
Tara looking at her toys hanging from the gym.
Mommy and Ryann playing with the piano (I can't really play it anyhow). It sure makes some funny noises.
