Miles went to sleep so early that he woke up at 2 and didn't want to go back to sleep. I got him back down a little after 3.

Ella woke up at 5:30 wanting to color signs for Mary (who is visiting in a few days).
I told her I was going back to sleep after giving her crayons. She called me a few times and so I had to get up out of bed. But then eventually I got back to sleep until 6:45 when Miles woke up.   After I fed him and changed him, I put him on the floor to play. Dave was awake on his laptop.  Then I crawled into bed and went back to sleep for maybe 20 minutes.

I called a plumber.
I called a landscaper to do a weeding estimate.
I filled out info online for 2 people to give estimates for cutting down the dead tree. I also filled out a form to get someone else here to give me an estimate for the weeding.

I was cooking lunch and Aunt Janice called. I talked to her while getting the food ready for the kids. Ella sure likes to talk and yell asking why I'm on the phone any time I'm on the phone.

I fell asleep typing this.

I showed Ella how to draw a boat so she drew one. But I drew mine upside down so she could see it correctly. But then she drew hers upside down too.

We tried to meet Dave for dinner at Aviva. Miles cried the entire way. Then Ella started crying. We get there and Ella temper tantrums. She flings her cup away and it hits someone else. It was not worth it to go out.

We played with Ella's birthday presents throughout the day.
