Busy, Busy, Busy

I am just running around like a crazy person, getting everything ready for Matthew's birthday. Mostly because I'm trying to get everything done when one or both of them are in school. Then on Tuesday, they don't have school - Teacher Work day! Well, I got almost everything done today and also met Kurt for lunch - at Costco!!! Hey, don't knock their $1.50 hot dog deal until you try it. I was actually at Costco picking up some pictures when Kurt called me. Wow what a hot date - can't get much past him.

Now, I've just finished cleaning the house for the weekend, so hopefully, the boys (all of them) won't mess it up too much before the weekend. I also have a girlfriend and her two boys visiting from Katy on Friday. This is a very special friend because her two boys are from Russia also. In fact, we were in Moscow at the same time for our 2nd sons. So I'm doing nothing but playing on Friday. I also cleaned tonight so that I can go to lunch with Kurt - alone - on a weekday - what a concept, have I moved to another planet?

I'm also trying to get ready for Halloween without running around like crazy. I made up these cards for the boys classmates. I'm going to punch holes in them and stick a lollipop in them.


Last, you wonder what I've done with my children when I'm running around like a mad woman at home. Well, Matthew's new favorite thing is to play the games on nickjr. And Sam will color for what seems like hours. This is a time when they can be so sweet!!!
