Not feeling the greatest healthwise, think I have some type of flu coming on.. who knows, just trying to drink a lot of liquids, feels like I have a headache in the back of my neck. Where is my doctor when I need him?!
We did make cookies this afternoon, they turned out okay, I did not have white sugar so substituted syrup instead. They taste a bit off to me, but the children like them so I guess that's all that matters. I had to measure by the eye as I don't have any measuring cups, so that could have been the problem too. I'm sure they have white sugar somewhere, I had the brown sugar thanks to my packages, which 4 have still not arrived... why I paid for priority 6-10 days...
Idreis and Ish cut up the vegetables for the Curry while the rest did cookie patrol. It was interesting to see how much better they all get along when they are working together for a common cause. There was at least no arguing for that 1/2 hour of cutting and baking. We all worked listening to the very best of the Jacksons.
We left the sixth floor and took a walk out, so glad that I brought the sling, much easier than lugging the stroller and forces Isa to walk. The one I have is made by Munchkin and is called Jelly Belly. We walked around for bout a half hour and found ourselves in front of a huge toy store. They all picked something out, Inayah a baby doll in a crib, and the boys all remote control cars, Isa got a lego car. We had to walk the rest of the way back home in the dark which I was a little aprehensive but it was only about 3 blocks and we made it back in here safely. The boys flew to the upper level to make ramps and play with the cars, as I finished getting the kiwi cut for dinner and made the rice for the curry, I peaked in on Inayah playing and poor Inara was sitting in the baby crib with the new baby. Now the baby crib is a little over a foot long and about a 1/2 foot wide. Inara was just as happy as could be sucking on the baby dolls bald head. Inayah was pretending to feed Inara, and she went right along with the imaginary play, opening her mouth to eat air food. It was too cute. They are sitting around now playing Uno minus Isa. Khalid and them won the game, he had 33 points 6 assists.
I'm about to serve dinner and relax with the Wall-e puzzle that I bought at the toy store.
And it's Isa with the two black eyes, one thanks to Idreis and the other thanks to ??? who knows.. how it happened.
