The kids got to choose between an angel or stable animal for the primary's Nativity performance. Kaylee was an angel, Regan was a cow, and V was a zebra. The Primary President needed to know what the kids picked, and when I said the V wanted to be a zebra she was more than fine with it. Because why can't there be a zebra at the stable?

Regan flipped out because he wanted to stand by his buddy Gillian and someone beat him to it. So he left the performance to pout about it for a while.

It was a really fun night out with the kids.

UFA family BBQ

We had this awesome fun family United for Adoption BBQ to go to. Jon got sick so I decided to Mom up and take the five solo. Because I’m an idiot.

Holy crap. I was trying SO hard not to cry driving home after. I did curl up in my bed next to my sick hubby and just cry it out with lots of whining. LOTS.

I cannot take R anywhere without Jon. He doesn’t like me and thinks it’s funny to hit me and throw things at me, and just plain not listen. Ever and at all. I was SO emotionally/mentally/physically drained after this party. I did not have fun.

The kiddos had lots of fun so for that reason alone I am glad I Momed up and took them to play.IMG_0693 IMG_0700 IMG_0702 IMG_0705 IMG_0716 IMG_0731

He doesn’t look terribly scary does he? But boy, oh boy is this one exhausting. He had fun in between meltdowns which where always….IMG_0734 IMG_0737 IMG_0809

Olivia knew I was coming and asked what pinata I was going to make. Because a party+Janice= pinata. BWHAHAHAHAHA! I asked her what kind of pinata I should make. She chose a cornucopia since it was close to Thanksgiving… Reasons I love Olivia.IMG_0820 IMG_0846This is me making an effort (I did promise Shannon) to be IN pictures and not just take them. And little Monkey slept most of the party. She’s good to me like that. 😉
