Change in Weather

The weather has been so nice lately. No humidity, not too much rain. Its been nice "fall like" weather for Florida. Since the weather is changing, getting a bit cooler now you know what will happen. Last week Kevin was in bed with the flu. Britney had a little stuffy nose and was achy. I kept her home one day last week. Yesterday Tyler started feeling yucky. I kept him home yesterday to relax, which he didn't. He went to sleep by 8:30 last night and decided to wake up at 2 this morning to play video games. He fell back asleep till it was time for school. He made it through the day ok, but his nose is still real runny. Tomorrow is picture day for him. I am volunteering, so if he still is not feeling good, I will just dismiss him early and bring him home.

I like when it gets cooler down here. Its a little more enjoyable, but when we all get sick, its no fun. Next one in line is me to get some kind of sickness, maybe I will be lucky and I will dodge the bullet!

Been a busy 3 weeks!

Well, the puppies are officially 3 weeks old now. They are getting so big! All of their eyes are open now and they are able to walk around a little bit, although they are all like drunken sailors..LOL! We have been able to give Sophie a little break and feed the pups blended up puppy food and formula mixed. The pups eat it up, but make such a mess in the process. They take baths in the food practically.

Last night, I brought Britney to her school so the kindergarten classes could perform 2 songs they learned during the fist official PTA gathering. They elected officers and had some more parents sign up for helping throughout the year. Britney did good singing the songs.

Today was Britney's picture day. I volunteered to help out. When you volunteer for picture day, you get a free package, so its worth it! All the kids pictures were taken by 1:30 so I think we did pretty good time wise.

I have to go to a meeting with Britney's teacher on Tueday for parent/teacher conference. I know Britney is doing ok. There are just a few things we will be discussing. Nothing major.

Tyler is doing awesome! Talking more and more everyday. He's my little buddy. Tyler's pictures will be this Thursday. I have signed up to volunteer at his school as well for yet another set of free pics.

The kids will be off on Friday due to teacher workshop day. I will actually have 2 mornings I can sleep in a bit later!!!

So, its been a busy 3 weeks w/the pups and will be busy for the next week coming up.

Puppy Pics

Look at how cute they all look all huddled up together in the laundry basket!

Sophie is really doing good with them. She is actually wanting them around her all the time. She is getting used to the routine to be able to feed the pups. I can't believe its been a week already. A few of the pups are little pigs!

Almost puppy time!

Sophie is due to give birth any day now. I feel so bad for her because she is so huge and you can tell its really bothering her. I think I would feel so uncomfortable too, especially if I was carrying around 10 puppies!

Kevin has all of the supplies we need to help Sophie with the birthing of the pups. We won't be able to go anywhere once the pups are here because Sophie is so big she could accidentally fall over on the pups. We will be staying home for the next 8-10 weeks. It will be cool to see some pups born again.

Britney is looking forward to helping out feeding the pups too. The only thing she dosen't realize is that these pups are going to be sold and we are not keeping them!

I will post pics of the pups when they are born! :)

Site Words

Britney's teacher sent hom a list of words for the first 9 weeks of school. We have been practicing these words every day.

Today I thought I would see how many Tyler could read. He did pretty good. He read boy, girl, school, cat really fast!

He will always say "The End" once a movie is finished and he sees those words on the screen too.

My little buddy keeps suprising me every day! :)

Been 3 weeks already!

I can't believe that school has been back for almost 3 weeks! The kids are doing well. Britney is learning something new every day. She has learned how to color "inside" the lines now. She has made a few friends and likes her teacher alot. Tyler is doing pretty good with his school work. He's trying his best and that is all I can hope for. His new teacher loves to be with the kids and is willing to do whatever it takes to help the kids. I know its still early, but I really hope she works out and is just as great as Tyler's teacher last year.

Almost time to get the kids settled in for another school day tomorrow...

Miniature Golf

Yesterday we took the kids to Summerland Mini Golf at Disney. I received one round of mini golf for 4 as one of my rewards. The kids didn't know how to hold or swing the club that well but they gave it their best shots and had fun. Tyler and I both got holes in one! Tyler did way better mini golfing this time than the last time we took him. He just ran around the other time. I think since we have a golf arcade game now, he associates it a little better and knows what to do to a certain extent. We will bring them golfing again sometime! I just might have the next Tiger Woods and Michelle Wie on my hands...LOL! :)
