TOO Quiet... October 7, 2013

On a rare night with no place to go, I decided to make breakfast for supper and allow Ellie-Kate to play quietly... All of a sudden, I realized that it WAS quiet... TOO quiet :) Ellie-Kate was digging for her favorite Spiderman notebook, and, yes, she did put everything back in the closet without complaint (and our dinner was delicious!).
