Tuesday the 18th

Today was one of those perfect days you just wish you could keep forever. It was a busy day as usual and a bit crazy too, but all in all such a great day.
Jacob had preschool and I was able to go during the last part to read a story. Matthew was great sitting in his carseat watching. After preschool my friend Angie and I went to the store together to get some Easter candy and cereal that was on sale. She also has two boys the same ages as Jacob and Caleb and is expecting her third boy in June. Needless to say we were an interesting site- two women with 5 almost 6 little boys who are acting like crazy men, in a grocery store buying cereal- which didn't work out exactly how we planned because they were out of some varieties so we were trying to find other boxes, get rainchecks, look for the Easter candy-which was also gone, found other candy on sale, tried to check out where the cashier gave each of our boys another huge bag of candy-those Valentine hearts, etc. At one point I was standing with all the boys myself and had a few people ask if they were all mine. Anyway it was completely crazy, but one of those fun memories that just makes you laugh.
When we got home, the day went great. Matthew took a couple good naps, the boys were surprisingly cooperative and played great together. I was able to accomplish a lot- getting the house cleaned, dinner made, and even had time to sit and read a bunch of stories with the boys. And even though Jeff didn't get home until after 8:30 (again) it was a great day.
These pictures weren't taken today, they were taken about a week ago when we went out to play on the open area by our apartment, enjoying one of the warmest days we'd had up to that point. I just forgot to add them. We played baseball, frisbee and ; another fun day.
