Pancakes for dinner

I think having pancakes for dinner is going to be our new "thing" when Erik has meetings.  He had one this afternoon at church, but even though he was going to be home in time for dinner, Kayleigh still wanted to have pancakes.  I got the idea from Amanda Eikeland to spell out the kids' names when I made the pancakes.  I don't think the letters turned out as well, but Kayleigh thought it was pretty cool.  Brian's name isn't long enough to fill him up, so he had another pancake after eating his letters.  Are you surprised to hear/read that???

The finished product

Brian had spiky hair from getting syrup in it.  He thought it was hilarious to smile with his eyes closed.  I thought this was the best one of his spikes and his smile.

S'mores

...yummy!  Kayleigh reminded me earlier this week that we were supposed to make s'mores again soon.  We went outside after dinner to make our dessert.  The s'mores were delicious and it was a fun way to finish off our week!

Pajama Day

Today was pajama  day at school.  She was so excited to wear her pajamas, but couldn't decide which to wear, so she combined two pairs.  The nightie is from my parents with the matching nightie for her doll.  Jenna had giving Kayleigh other pajamas with the zebra print pants.  I think it worked out well because it was pretty cool this morning and I didn't have to worry about Kayleigh being too cold.  One of Kayleigh's teachers made home-made waffles for the class, and they got to have applesauce and cinnamon apples, too.  It was a good way to end a short, 2 day school week!
