Long day for Poppy

Poppy didnt take her regular nap today - she climbed out of her crib after 20 minutes,dressed herself, came downstairs and announced she didn't want to sleep. It all caught up with her at dinner time while we were listening to a particularly rocking Tony Iommi album - loudly. Through the metal haze from over by the sink I noticed her slumped forward in her chair her blond food encrusted hair sticking up over the counter.

When she woke up I moved her to the couch - She went back to sleep.

Easter at the Jennings

Easter Sunday was omitted in favour of an Easter Monday Lasagna Birthday fest with egg hunt. We all met at The Jennings' for dinner - Lasagna , excellent kit Cesar salad and garlic bread all washed down with chocolate soy milk or dark rum depending on your age.Eggs were hidden and children cried.All home and tucked in by 9-30. Quinn saved time by leaving her cell phone behind.
