Sorry it has been a few days since I have posted...Yesterday I had a whole post typed and I went to proof read it and voila- it was a gonner!!! So we here we start again! Wednesday evening I received a phone call to substitute teach at Delaware Elementary (southeast Polk school district) on Thursday--- a great place- except my room had NO AC and it was soooo hot and humid... I came home Thursday night exhausted! Tim kept the girls at home with him on Thursday and then headed out to appointments Thursday evening... Friday I went subbed again in the same room and it rained Friday am, but then the humidity sky-rocketed and we were back to the same old problem...NO AC. Praise the Lord their was AC in the new part of the building and for lunch and specials I spent my time in the teacher's lounge cooling off! Friday Maddie was back to preschool (this time all by herself b/c on Wednesday the only had it for an hour and mom stayed) and after preschool she and her classmates came BOUNDING out of school with neon pink SUNGLASSES because even though it rains outside it is always SUNNY in preschool!!!! :) Tim and the girls took Mom Stout to the eye doctor Friday afternoon and they also stopped by Tim's work so that Tim could pick up a few things and get a little office work done! They were able to take "phone messages" and play with tape!!!! FUN! FUN! Friday night we vegged out and ate at home, walked over to Grandma and Grandpa Stout's house and played in their front yard and visited. Saturday morning Tim went to a men's breakfast (7:30 am) at church with his buddy, Brad. Brad's wife, Dana, was at the women's retreat and so I watched Josh (2) and Trisha (7) and our girls while the men went to MUGS. The kids played and watched a little CBS Nick Jr. and I made scrambles eggs, bacon and toast for breakfast! Tim and Brad were home about 9:00 am. When Tim got home I ran to Target for a f we things and then I came home and crashed all day- we were all zonked! Last night Tim and some Grandview alumni played basketball up at Grandview and the girls and I watched, shot hoops, played a little volleyball, played at Defender Park (outside jungle gym) and then when we all done we headed to Hy-Vee to pick up a few groceries (MILK!)!!!! We came home everybody bathed and we were all in bed by 9:30! I love this going to bed early stuff--WA-HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! This morning I was up at 6:30 b/c I chose to help decorate the student ministry table for our ministry fair today! I was also in the infant nursery today for the last time- I am taking a little break...Well actually a long break so that we can get involved and serve in Maddie and Morgan's classrooms!!! FUN! Tim said church was good! Tonight we have small group and then tomorrow is Monday and we start all over again!
Morgan starts potty training tomorrow! She is already telling us when she is wet and even today took her diaper off when she had done her "business." Tim made her help clean it up and she didn't really like that, OH WELL!!! Morgan is on a growth spurt too! She is eating me out of house and home and growing like a weed. She is up to Madison's shoulder! WOW!!!
Madison has been angelic almost- she is just so sweet spirited and she really is striving to please us and help her little sissie learn too! She is learning to lead by example and she loves it! She is loving school!!!
Well- this is a novel! Have a great week!
I miss vacation--- our next trip to Minnesota is in 2 weeks! We are going home for Heather's baby shower and the men are headed to Promise Keeper's in Minneapolis! I am soooo excited to get away again!
