Me and My Boys plus Lil' Miss makes Six

What we've been up to...

* We had a playdate at our house.
* C had a sleep-over at Nana and Papa's.
* Snow and ice threatened to ruin my girl's night.  We gave up Olive Garden and the movie theatre for pizza and a redbox and stayed in.
* Operation Organize My House continued with the sorting of all of C's toys (while he was at Nana and Papa's, of course) and my bedroom dresser and closet.
* I was treated to a massage.
* Took C to the doctor, mild case of bronchitis, antibiotics are already clearing up his cough
* Skipped work to stay home with my sick (even though he was acting fine) boy.  Grandma brought us Sonic.  I didn't miss those high school students at all.
* Hubby booked his flight back for next weekend!
* We have official moving dates - April 8-11.
* We went to the library.  C wanted nothing to do with me reading him a book, and insisted on listening in with another family.  (Mean librarian was not working today.)
* I bought a new skillet to replace the one that C busted.  It was drying on a dish towel...he needed a towel.
* We tested new skillet with chocolate chip pancakes.  Mickey Mouse style.
I actually, for the first time in my life, made these from scratch.  I always use a mix and honestly, I was not impressed.  Maybe it was a bad recipe.  Without the chocolate chips and strawberries I added on top of mine, they were pretty flavorless.  Anybody have a good pancake recipe?!?  If not, I'm sticking with Bisquick.

I use whole wheat flour; more flavor and I think it makes nicer pancakes. You can also try adding a tsp of vanilla.
