Loving the weekends!

Ahhh - Saturday afternoon by the roaring fire (the roaring part is for Bob's ego - he takes great pride in his fire making skills!) The boys had their last soccer game this morning and did great but it was freezing. Bob made me my favorite lunch - my comfort food based on many afternoons at my Grandmother's counter talking and eating Tomato Soup (with milk, not water) and grilled cheese and I don't have any work that I need to get done like last weekend so other than church we are doing hardly anything. I am finding that work is a little less fullfilling than usual - at a certain point I have to really delgate to make sure that everything is set for when I leave - that being said - once people start doing my work I have less to do!

I ended up uploading the pictures in the wrong order so they go from today to 2 days ago - what are you going to do? Molly went off to school skipping yesterday because she was very excited about the person getting her off the bus. Peter had a doctor's appointment and I was not positive if we would get home in time for the bus and didn't want to take any chances so Uncle Colin got her off the bus. She was so excited to have him here and Peter was even more excited when Uncle Colin took them both outside to play after we got home and than stayed at our house during Irish Step Dancing so that Peter and he could play Wii together. It was very cute! Molly also had her Halloween party at Irish Step Dancing - she opted to wear her Minnie costume from last year because it was more like a dancing costume than her Vetrinarian costume that we picked for this year! I have to admit that I was excited - I LOVE the Minnie costume.

Peter and Luke taking a break from Wii to have lunch today.
Ellie was forced by Molly to wear a crown while having lunch.

Molly wore her crown for lunch, too.

Molly's ISD class all dressed for Halloween. Molly must have brought up about 6 times how last year she was one of 3 other kids not wearing her costume because I had forgotten about the party. She doesn't care that I had gotten out of the hospital after having gallbladder surgery and being septic for 6 days but somehow managed to get to her dance class - just how embarrassing it was that her mom forgot about Halloween.

They all looked adorable and had so much fun - we didn't get to watch the class but we heard through the door them giggling and laughing the whole class.

Another bonus - Auntie Beth is coming home on the 7th and I'm not sure what time she gets in but Molly asked special permission to have Auntie Beth come to the parent/grandparent observation class that day! They are a bit strict about how many people can come but since Molly insisted that there was no way her grandparents would miss it but Auntie Beth was coming all the way from California they agreed to her argument - too sweet!

Our beautiful Minnie Mouse!

Poor Annie - her ears are hurting and now she has an awful upset stomach related to the antibiotics that she has to take. Lucky for her that Daddy is always available for snuggling!

Bob and I were "playing doctor" with Molly's vet costume and she caught us! She could not stop laughing so this was the only picture she took that came out!

Not much else to report - Karla and I are braving the crowds tomorrow to take the big kids to see High School Musical 3 and we both admitted to not being upset about going to see it! Pathetic moms! The Dads are staying home with the babies to watch football.

Look to the left for a poem/story that Molly wrote in one of her writing prompt books - my girl is so amazingly sweet and loving - she makes my heart swell with pride!

GNM - ILY!
