An Open Door

This morning, Kellen managed to open the bathroom door while Kristin and Danelle were in there trimming Kristin's nails. Won't be long now probably until he is opening doors at will. So we've got that going for us, which is nice.

Danelle had lunch out with the girls to celabrate a birthday, so the kids and I took advantage and went out for a mother's-day errand. Kristin was very well behaved and a good helper, but Kellen threw and on-the-floor-kicking-and-screaming fit at the cash register. And I had just bought him a balloon, too. I suppose he didn't like the color or something. Or maybe he was tired and hungry. We got him home, he ate a good lunch, and then went right down for a nap.

Kristin and I picked up pine cones knocked out of the trees in the back yard by the storm yesterday. We collected two full 5 gallon buckets full.

We all went out for a short walk after nap time, but got rained on so we made it a short one. No hunting for baseballs today.

We must have worn out Kristin this weekend. This is her on the couch after bath this evening. She's watching a hockey game. :-) Earlier in the day, she asked me why the overtime was so long and aren't they supposed to do a shootout now? The rules are different in the playoffs I told her, but I was pleasantly surprised by how much she had picked up on the rules during the regular season.
