Silence is Golden...

Wow. It's Monday afternoon and my house is silent save for the air conditioner and the sound of Shy's swing. This is a momentous occasion. My house is never quite!!! I might even tempt fate and try to fit in a shower! If I could pull that off without one of the kids waking up, I should go buy a lottery ticket.

This morning was pretty eventful. I decided to let Splasher eat in the living room with me this morning since our kitchen needs a makeover. And by makeover I mean cleaned. Breakfast went fantastically. Except for the scrambled egg in the chair. I decided to let him try to feed himself while I tried to feed Shy. Eh. Oh well. I just let him go when he dumped most of it over his head. It seemed that he was having fun doing it, so why not? I'm kind of in a messy mood today so I decided I'd clean it when he took a nap, and I did. We watched Peter and the Wolf and Splasher really seemed to enjoy it. That makes me so happy since the entire point of the show is to teach children to appreciate music while watching something fun. Prokofiev really did a good job! We had some mac and cheese for lunch and the rest of the morning was filled by exploring the case of water that got left by the kitchen door last night. While I have 20 bottles of water floating around my living room now, it was fun to watch Splash look at things through the sides. We had a lesson in refraction.

But now, Spalsher is awake after a two and a half hour nap so I guess I should go. Glad I didn't attempt that shower.
