Tess was so cute today. I bought some clothes line clips in hopes of using them on chips, crackers, etc. bags to keep them fresh. Almost immediately Tess was obsessed with them and the basket they came in. All the pretty colors! So today we had to get all her doll clothes out (thankfully we are having a gorgeous spring day and it was so warm we didn't even need jackets) and we washed them by hand outside, well Tess did while I supervised while reading... :). She then hung them all up on the clothesline daddy made for her. They were still kind of dirty so we had to do it again. It kept her occupied and happy for quite a few hours, which is good since she is so bored every morning in the childcare at my german class. I am beginning to feel guilty about taking her. I tried to get her to do other things in with the other children, but now she prefers to come and sit quietly by me and draw and color. Such a dilemma... bored 4 year old or not learn german? Either way she really is bored when we stay home.. there's not much to do here either besides watch tv while I clean or help me clean which she likes to do also. At least she and I are getting out of the house and doing something and I am hoping it will help her with some of her irrational fear she has developed of noises.

Wyatt is amazing me with his jump in his german reading. He struggled for quite a while, but they got him extra help at school and I've made him practice more at home, so he seems to be doing much better! Yay! I am truly amazed by him everyday!
