What a Week

We had quite the busy week. Lots to do and we all took turns with colds. Except Sam of course. He never gets sick.
On Monday we almost bought a little puppy. A Shih Tzu. A friend at work was selling a litter. Sam brought home some pictures and we all got excited. Kaylee said she wants a white she can carry. The first thing she said to me was I want the white one, a Hunter no fight with my puppy. Hunter(dog we have been watching this month)is a great dog. I think she put the thought in our head to get one of our own. However, a day of talking it over and almost getting in the car to go pick one out, the kids pretty much blew the idea out of the water. Sam walked in from work and the volume in our house from the kids was insane. Suddenly, we realized we are not up for a puppy who is yapping all the time and competing with our yapping kids. Maybe later?
We also had parent teacher conferences. Both boys are doing great. I am so relieved they are such good students all on their own (unlike their father who barely graduated!!) Hopefully the kids just take after me! Sam is shaking his head at me this very moment. :)
Wednesday and Friday Kaylee and I volunteered in Alex's class. She is so cute in there. She attaches herself to Alex. They are very sweet to eachother. During story time they were sitting next to eachother on the rug, Alex's arm around Kaylee and her arm around him. That was a good mom moment! She is quite popular with class too. We walk in and everyone says Kaylee! She loves it!
Friday was also the 100 day of school. They had little parties. Very exciting.
Sam and I went out with some friends last night. A much needed break! We say Bride Wars which was really funny! The kids love having a babysitter. They have a parties when we're gone.
Today we all had some ice cream a Dewars. The kids had really never been, so that was fun. We took a tour during the summer but they didn't really get to sit and order. Kaylee didn't care what kind it was as long as it was pink! She also let Sam know that he should paint our house pink too!
Oh and since Christmas my kids are obsessed with Webkinz! It is a great motivator though!
Well that was quite a post!
