Catching up

Ok so lets catch up on the last few days. First let me say I'm glad so many people are following the blog...although that means more yelling at me when I fall behind..haha. Love you guys!



Alrighty...so Wednesday Kylie & her friend Maya worked on their jazz duo. They are most of the way through the choreography, but man is it fast for them. They are planning to compete for the first time this year...first competition is first weekend in February. They are both very excited about it, but its going to be a lot of work at the same time. Noah had his first Karate class and it was one of the most adorable things I've ever seen. He is the tiniest monkey in the class, but didn't let that stop him in the least. When they take attendance they have to yell back "Here Sir" and he was one of the loudest! He listened really well and had a great time. When I picked him up tonight he thought we were going there again and was a little bummed when I said no. haha.



What else...here are some recent pics. Each month Noah has a new color for his "I Spy" project. This month was orange and these were his finds:

On to the next funny story. So for the past few weeks we have been letting Kylie make her own breakfast (Toaster Strudel). So this morning she got up with Jay since he had to leave early. Once he left she started her breakfast. Then Noah got up and she thought she would help make his breakfast (mini pancakes heated in the microwave). All of a sudden I heard Noah running down the hall. Kylie was saying its ok buddy and he was saying no I have to get Mommy (not what you want to hear while 1/2 asleep). He comes in and says "Mommy, Kylie pushed the wrong numbers and there was smoke". Nothing gets you out of bed like that. I was downstairs in 10 seconds and it was stinky. No smoke, but she definitely burned them. She felt so bad "It's all my fault, I ruined it...I was just trying to help". After a big hug and some reassurance that I wasn't mad, but that Noah did the right thing by getting me we tried again together and all was good. She can be such a good girl when she wants to be. Here are a few pics of my big girl from this morning after the fiasco:

She's growing up so fast!!!


So tomorrow I'm off from work...YEAH!!! Have a parent/teacher for Noah in the AM then some time for Mommy. Kylie has hip hop tomorrow night and Noah has his Pizza Party/Soccer Award banquet. Saturday its off to the city for a girls day (cause I'm guessing Jason & Noah are bailing). Lunch at American Girl and some shopping. Can't wait!! Should have some more pics to share after that. Good night all!

Busy Week

Ok so behind as usual. When is someone going to add a few more hours to each day?? Weekend was nice - relatively quiet for a change. Friday, I won tickets to the Disney On Ice show coming to XL Center in January. Haven't told the kids yet, but I'm sure they will love it. Only downfall is that I may not be able to go :( It is Jan 6th at 7pm which is prime blackout time at work. Here's hoping we're ahead of schedule that week..haha. Otherwise it will be Daddy date night!

As for the busy week...it's coming. Kylie has dance, dance, dance. Noah's supposed to start Karate on Wednesday, but not sure he's a little down and out tonight with a cough and slight temp. Hoping it passes really quickly. Swim class on Thursday...Soccer banquet/pizza party on Friday. Then the big trip to the city on Saturday...YEAH!

That's about it for tonight. I have to be to work by 6:45am tomorrow...so I guess I should turn in. Stay tuned...more pics and stories to come as this week passes! Good night!
