Alex has a new plan for his computer case. He used his vinyl cutter to print Mario. Now he’s going to work out painting this – strategically to get all the colors just right.
Today’s couch plumping chore ended in a dog pile. (Note Kaitlyn’s legs.)
These two worked together to make cinnamon donut holes for breakfast.
Dad’s home and he brought snacks back from Belgium!
Kaitlyn borrowed a boardgames from school for the weekend and has wasted no time in playing it over and over.

Alex got a vinyl cutter and spent this afternoon trying to set it up.
It’s pi day. Of course, Teague made pie.
Our neighbor has a new puppy and my kids are spending all their time next door.
Alex has spent quite a bit of time lately doing some 3D modeling. Even crazier is he is hanging out in the kitchen doing it. The littles loved it because it meant they could play outside while I was gone. (The rule is they have to be inside while I am gone unless someone is with them or specifically watching them.)
After dinner cookies coming up!
The first flowers of spring.
Stick ’em up!
As of this weekend, all of the kids have their own Fortnite accounts. I love the usernames they have picked for themselves. Alex’s username is Crusher. (They all have random numbers after the names as most usernames do these days.)

I put the other kids to bed and was surprised to walk through the living room to find Alex and all his homework spread out everywhere. I’m not sure if he rarely has homework or just never does it downstairs.
An early dinner before swim lessons. (Teague decided to show off of the picture. He doesn’t normally finish his chili this way.)

Sunday lineup.
Kaitlyn decided to make breakfast this morning – pancakes! Alex wanted to supervise (but Kaitlyn was having none of it!)
As I was reading this afternoon, Ben curled up beside me and took a little nap.
Saturday means chore day and a clean house. A lot of times that means I say no to afternoon cooking, but today I agreed to some cookies.
Alex is having quite a bit of trouble 3D printing the gears he wants to use on the case he is modding. This is what happened on his last attempt.
After everyone was in bed, I walked through the living room and found a drawing left by Teague.
The past week, Kaitlyn and I have been reading a book together – an old favorite of mine from high school.
There’s supposed to be a new season of Fortnite released today and all of my kiddos are quite disappointed that the release keeps getting pushed back by hours and hours. Ben finally convinced Wade to play Smash Bros with him before bedtime.
Pasta and Bingo Night!

I convinced Alex to unload the dishwasher one last time before he went to bed. Then I can tackle the huge amount of dirty dishes piled up on my counter before morning.
The littles were determined to cover Teague with blankets. He wasn’t quite as amused as they were.
Kaitlyn has a new book and hasn’t been able to put it down.
This crazy guy.
Laundry time for Alex.
I have to make cookies for a school function and Teague offered to make them for me!
Kaitlyn and her sleep mask continue to crack me up.
My monkey has a new trick.
Although Alex is a typical teenager in that he never wears a coat in winter, he only wears shorts when he is overdue on laundry. I can almost bet he is currently washing every pair of pants he owns.
This is Kaitlyn’s current favorite place to curl up for her iPad time.
Brothers.
Sunday lineup.
Saturday morning chaos with two cooking breakfast – muffins and waffles.
Dinner making shenanigans. The kids are cooking while Wade and I get ready to go out on a date.
These two decided to have some fun with the morning chores – plumping the couch cushions took much much longer than normal.
Alex was nice enough to agree to make Kaitlyn a peanut butter and jelly for snack today.
Wade got a new toy and the kids loved playing with it all evening.
