The day started off on a bad note with the usual breakfast struggle. Had promised that Breakfast will be over before mommy came out of the bedroom but that was not meant to be. One should not promise anything when little kids finishing breakfast on time is part of the plan.
Finally after a busy day we did something to make up for it. Ate outside without any fights between family members!
Happy Mothers day to all!

Blogging has become a luxury with the busy work schedule and the new early to bed, early to rise routine for the last 8 weeks..
Was going through old blog posts to see what we were doing last year same time and http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifsaw this post..
Last weekend saw us rearrange the kids closet and suddenly realized that both these pieces were still there! One was to be a hand me down to the little one and the other one was a fight to the end for the donate pile. Our kids will put top notch lawyers to shame when it comes to making a case for keeping their old clothes.
As usual, could not resist the temptation to do another juxtapose photo..
They really enjoyed dressing up and posing for this one!

The little one made a spring hat at school. Ended up too small for her head. Guess Kindergarten engineering did not account for any shrinkage factors during the making of the paper hat.
It is really nice and colorful. She was reluctant to pose because it did not fit..
Now that hat gets to languish in the garage till its one year expiry date and then goes bye bye
The photograph on the other hand gets to be revisited every now and then.
We made it to our favorite hangout, the Natural bridges in Santa Cruz last week to let the kids play in the sand, watch the tide pool creatures and just get some sun. The water was still cold enough to make me stay off it.
Here are some photographs..
Break is over and the kids start school again tomorrow. The kids had to stay content with trips to Livermore and Santa Cruz, but they did enjoy the time spent at home with grandma and caught up on sleep. Lots of sleep.
The routine begins tomorrow!
