Day 59: Mac-n-Cheese, Again

Ed worked late tonight, so I decided to save the salmon and asparagus for tomorrow night, and to treat the boys to mac-n-cheese tonight. We got home late (again--not until 6:20), and the first thing that greeted us when we walked in the door was the strong smell of oil-based paint or something oil-based. Repairmen have been fixing our ceiling after the recent leak for the past few days, and today they completed the work. I don't know what they did that would make it smell like this, but it's pretty bad. I opened the windows (despite the 40-degree weather) and told the boys we could have a picnic dinner in the basement. They, of course, loved it. The smell was slightly better when we went back upstairs to do nebulizer and get ready for bed. I hope it's not something we have to live with all weekend, and I really hope it won't have any ill effects on the boys. Anyway, I took lots of pictures while we were downstairs, but I was getting so frustrated because the auto focus kept focusing on the toy shelves behind the boys, instead of on the boys, and I couldn't figure out how to change the focus. Plus it was taking forever for the camera to focus at all and then take the shot. I did manage one cute picture:

Dinner:
Annie's Mac-n-cheese and broccoli
We didn't eat until 7:00. Both boys cleaned their plates, and they split an ice cream sandwich for dessert. At least I have one, solid, go-to meal that I KNOW they will eat.
