It is hard being a little sister

Today I went into Jack's pre-school and helped them make gingerbread men. I made the dough last night and then brought it in for the kids to roll out, cut out, and ice. I think the kids enjoyed it. I was certainly tired at the end! I have a lot of respect for pre-school workers who do this five days a week.

I took Theo and Addie with me. Theo had an absolute blast. He even insisted that he bring his own backpack so that he could fit in with the other kids. He did really well and just ran around and played the whole time. Addie was a rock star. She wasn't able to have her morning nap because we stayed instead of dropping Jack off and coming home for a nap. She just sat by the table and chewed on a rolling pin.

When we got home I put on a Peppa Pig dvd so that I could wash up the dishes and have a few minutes peace. After about five minutes I walked in to see this picture:



Addie was so wiped out that she fell asleep sitting up watching the dvd. It IS hard being a little sister!

What a trooper! Little sisters have to be tough to survive their big brothers. Sounds like a really fun morning!

How sweet. I am sure it is very exciting being Jack and Theo's sister. "Bored" will not be in her vocabulary.

Looks like she will be an expert at grabbing a nap whenever she can so she can keep up with her brothers.
