Sunday
happy surprise with Naomi. Zipped into Wendy's for fruit bowls for the kiddos. trip to collect school clothes at the mall for HRH Erik, we scored some Levi's and T-shirts at Herburgers. but not without Magnus getting a total goose egg from the dressing room door slammed into his forehead from Erik. JCPenney down the other end was not successful, they didn't have anything for the twerp. sorted through jazz's closet (serious downsize for Naomi to inherit, two 20 gallon sacks worth.) A trip to subway for sweet onion chicken teriyaki subs, and Naomi had a thermal nuclear meltdown. Kay Jewelers torqued me off trying to get service. finally headed back to Lolo and smacked down some veggies / fruit and fish fillets for dinner. bought a lovely Boston silk pie and candles for Magnus's 4th birthday. finally had 4 of 5 kids at one table for a delayed birthday party. we even scored some ice cream. and then the dreaded photo shoot of the kids. now mommy loves photos but it does take a lot of patience to get everyone to look in the same direction and have a 'normal' expression. just a couple hours of torture. total visit 10 am to 9 pm. ;-) happy day.
