Monday

Today, despite Natalia and I sleeping in a bit, we managed to have all our school done – even with the increased workload – by noon. Leilani did fantastic with the extra work, really, it didn’t take us that much longer than the “normal” work! We’ll see how the rest of the week goes, but I’m pretty optimistic at the moment. Of course, my optimistic mood may have something to do with the rain. It’s been off and on all day, and when it’s been on, it’s been a downpour!

After she got all her school done, Leilani watched our newly found Cars movie. Despite the many scratches and pauses, she enjoyed watching it.

I’ve been reading Color Me Vegan, to learn more about nutrients in plants. As the author, Colleen Patrick-Goudreau says, why go through animals to get the nutrients found in plants? So I’m learning more about all the different phytonutrients and antioxidants in the different colors. It’s really exciting!

Tomorrow we're going to the ballgame, it should be interesting since Natalia really does terribly in crowds. Yesterday was a friend from church's graduation party and Natalia had a complete meltdown. It took me a loooonnnngggg time to get her calmed and eating. She's never really liked crowds, even in utero she wasn't too crazy about the loud noises and all at Awana and other places. So we'll see how it goes.
