This and That

Last week was a busy week, so this week we have been taking it easy. Trying not to be overscheduled and catch up with some friends. It's quite enjoyable really.

Keira had her second dance class today. As I was walking out of the room, I heard the teacher ask the group of kids if they had brothers and sisters and I heard Keira yell very loudly, "My mommy has one in her belly!" Out of the mouths of babes. She told me today that she really likes the tap part of dance better than the ballet. I say, it's the shoes!

I volunteered to "help" at VBS this year. I was supposed to be what they called a herder - shuttle the kids from one activity to another. Well, apparently they are super short on help and I get to be a teacher! Oh boy! I get either 2 or 4 year olds - she gave me a choice, but I couldn't decide, so I just told her to suprise me! Should make for interesting blogging material.

Weather here has been awesome this week so far. The oppressive heat is gone and it's in the mid-80s. Love it. We've actually been playing outside again and don't have to be near water.

Keira had some friends over to play yesterday. She has these little decorative erasers that she loves to play with - they are in different shapes, like rainbows, teddy bears, hearts, etc. I don't know where they came from, but they are a popular toy for her. There are two of each shape. Anyway, yesterday she was carrying around the two rainbows and decided to give one to her friend for him to keep telling him "It's for friendship". I just thought this was so sweet. She talked about it for the rest of the day and even told Daddy about what she did when he got home.

I had my first icky garden experience today. I noticed one of the green peppers had little holes in it, so I plucked it off and opened it up - and there was an icky worm inside. Ugh. I freaked of course and threw it over the fence. Going to have to study up on what it was and how to stop it.

Baby Girl Hacker #2 is quite the mover and shaker. She is a kicking machine. Except when Wade has tried to feel her. Apparently, she is stubborn! I feel her anytime I sit down all day - except when Wade is around to try to catch a quick kick.

I think that is all I know for now. More soon, hopefully this week. Sort of sadly, next week sets off another three to four week extravaganza which includes more swim lessons, a visit from my MIL, dance, gymnastics, VBS, a trip to chicago, a weekend where wade has to work, and probably a few things I am forgetting. I love to be busy, but I may have gone overboard!

Oh and how could I forget to mention (and this part is really for one person only) that I have come in 1st place for 3 weeks in a row in my fantasy golf league. I would say it's fairly impressive considering the amount of time I spend picking my players - last week I timed myself - 4 minutes 27 seconds! Yeah for me!
