Laundry Fun

Deidre and Enoch, 2 kids in a dryer

Deidre and Enoch were trying to take advantage of the fact that I couldn't lift either one of them out of the dryer.

Can you believe they can both fit in there?  I guess it really is a super capacity.  

They were having so much fun, I hated to make them get out, that shows you I am getting more lax in my old age.  I would have never let the boys do that.  I would have said no,  just cause.

Sometimes I feel like the laundry never ends, like I am in a hamster wheel of laundry and chores.  It is a good break to grab the camera and laugh with them too.  Lindsay and Sheri both posted the words to their laundry song, I have found myself singing it too.

Deidre goes to Hollywood

Deidre had her Kindergarten program on Thursday night.  They did the "Jungle Book".  Deidre was one of the storytellers.  She did really well and spoke loud so everyone could understand her.  I was really proud.

Luckily I went with mom to the afternoon program.  She had a meeting during the evening performance, and I wanted to see both,  so off we went.  

Then, right before the evening performance, Enoch feel asleep and so I thought I could get away with putting him in the stroller and he would stay asleep (this usually works great).  But, when I lifted him out of the car seat, he woke up.  He screamed for the whole half hour before the performance.  I took him into the hall, and got lots of looks from everyone coming in.  What a great feeling to be stared down by everyone who is on their way to a program.

It got so bad, there was just no calming him down, that as soon as Curtis got there, I left and missed the whole show.  Boy was I glad that I had gone in the afternoon!  

My short term goal is for our whole family to be able to go anywhere together, even church, and sit still and listen, not fighting someone to be quiet.  Don't you think that is reasonable?
