The Leprechaun left a pot of gold!

Mary-Gail said, "A pot of What?!!"


The Leprechaun left Reese a Pot of Gold! My sister, JoJo, made "Leprechaun Traps" with her four littles last night. Reese brought over one of those traps to show me and the girls, and wouldn't you know it - that little Leprechaun got away! "But not before he wrecked the whole house!" Reese said. "He threw the cushions off the couch, opened the cupboard doors and kitchen drawers, and he even pee'd in the toilet - GREEN PEE!" to which all three little girls laughed their full heads off. Green pee, huh? Good job JoJo, Good Job.
JoJo bought these shirts for the girls for St. Patrick's Day -
she's always thinking of me and my littles.
Rebecca paused her solo-game of baseball long enough to get a picture;
& Mary-Gail looks like she has a "giant Daddy footprint bow" (her words) on her head.


Reese showed Mary-Gail the little doorway entrance into the house she made for the Leprechaun; he slept on the Barbie bed Reese put in there, but decided he had to go home,
so he left a note behind...
Reese found a Pot of Gold in her homemade Leprechaun house, along with lots of taunting notes :)
*********************************
Pappy came over for "Pappy DayCare" and showed the girls that a Leprechaun had stopped by his house too! Only Pappy didn't let his Leprechaun escape - Pappy caught the Leprechaun and stuck him to a box. Then Pappy got all of the Leprechaun's gold, which turned out to be marshmallows - Lucky Pappy!


Holidays with kids are so much fun!

(Yes, those are Popsicles in the girls' hands. Where the Leprechaun brought everyone else fun things, he brought us colds, coughs, sore throats, and FEVERS of 102. So, yes, at 10:30 am we're having Popsicles...)

Pappy DayCare consisted of making sugar cookies and frosting/decorating them, AND discovering all things Saint Patrick's Day (Shamrocks, Leprechauns, rainbows, pot-of-gold, Ireland...) Pappy better be careful, his temporary daycare job might just become permanent full-time. Thanks again, Dadda, for filling in until we figure out what we're going to do! Loves to you!

Oh my festive goodness! I'm thrilled that your dad is well enough to look after the girls!
