I know that I told you in my last post that we were planning to have an exciting weekend but our plans changed. Dylan got sick and so we stayed home all weekend while he got better. Our surprise outing was cancelled and the kids were bummed. We were going to take them to watch Madascgar 2. I guess there is still next weekend. I made up for it yesterday and rented them Kung Fu Panda. Let's just say they have watched like 3 times already. What else is Dylan going to do laying in bed. At least it made him feel good. I better get going I have a long list of items that I have to get done today. Mainly stripping Dylan's bed and getting his stuff washed. Hope you all had a great weekend.
As you can tell by my title that is the book that Dylan read last night. Yes he read the whole thing with no problem. I am so proud of him. He has turned into such a great reader he is even a head of his grade level. It just delights me to see the look on his face when he sounds out a word that he thinks he doesn't know...the look on his face when he finished the whole book without any help. He was so proud of himself and I was too. Dylan me and daddy are so proud of you and who you are becoming. We love you buddy!!!
Let's just say I am glad that the weekend is over. We had a very busy and exhausting weekend I am still trying to recover. I had decided to take on the task of planning a Harvest Party at church on halloween night. It went so well and their were a lot of people there. I had so much fun watching the kids play game and their faces light up when their bags were full of candy. The boys had lots of fun playing with all the kids that came. They haven't even asked about their candy.
Saturday we had our first basketball game. Let's just say we still need some pratice but we will be better next week. We forgot the camera so I don't have any pictures of Dylan yet. I will on Saturday.
Sunday we went to church, came home and just relaxed. Owen wasn't feeling well so he ended up sleeping most of the day away. Sorry if this post is so boring but that is really all we have been up to. I will have more to post after the weekend. We are taking the boys on a surprise outing. Chat at you all soon.
I know, I know I am a horrible blogger. We have just been really busy that finding time on the computer is a chore in itself. We started basketball this week, and so now the fun begins. Let me just say I love basketball. I played in high school and I just love it. I hope that Dylan turns out to love it as much as I did. The kids on my team are really cute they are 1st and 2nd graders so you can just imagine how much fun this season is going to be. I will have to keep you posted on the status of our season.
Owen is getting bigger and more independent every day. He is now in his own words 3 1/2. Where did the time go? I remember when he wasn't talking and his favorite activity was trying to crawl on the floor. I look back and wonder where all my time went and that it just reminds me that I should cherish everyday I have with them. I know that soon they will be gone and then what will I do. I love my life and wouldn't change it for anything. I will be back later with some more posts. I promise.
The boys in action...we are the green team
Dylan and his friend Dylan. They are excited that they won the game.
Yesterday was my 30th birthday! I was depressed at first at turning the big 30. I am no longer in my 20's and it just starts to sound so old. Then I realized how much I have to be thankful for and how much fun I have had the last 30 years. I have a wonderful husband, 2 adorable children who make being 30 seem less old. I have a wonderful mom and dad who I admire and an awesome sister who is my best friend. What more could I ask for and why should I be so depressed. God has truly blessed me and I am excited to see what next year brings.
Happy 30th Birthday to me!!!
