This week in school news: Kaplyn finished up her Achievement tests this week. I'm sure she did just as great as she does on her regular school work. The kids had their last day of AR points for the school year. I am so proud of their AR progress this year. All of the kids made their goal for each month receiving their book-it for a free personal pan pizza from Pizza Hut each month. They also got points towards AR prizes which they will receive in the next month. Good job kids! The school decided to do a different fundraiser this month, flower bulbs! I love this fundraiser! Who doesn't need or want flowers for the spring?! I am so excited to get what I ordered!
On the baby front!
I went to my OB appointment on Wednesday, everything is coming along. Baby is in position, we just hope to meet her really soon! I got out the basinette, tub, boppy pillows, etc...and got everything scrubbed down. We bought a "pink" infant car seat...yay pink! 0-3 and 3-6 month clothing have all been washed and put away...it is so good to see dresses and pastel colors in that size for a change, it has definitely been awhile! I am slowly, but surely packing my hospital bag. Still have to buy birth announcements. I went to the Dollar Tree yesterday and I personally thought they cost a fortune, pack of 4 for $1. I have always gotten 8 for $1...
In Sports!
Genin played California in Finleyville this past Saturday. The team did great! Genin scored 2 goals and had 1 assist!
Kaplyn is doing very well. Still stands off a little, but is learning to get out there more. She really enjoys soccer! The U12 game was cancelled on Sunday due to rain. Both Genin and Kaplyn will miss their games this Saturday. Their Aunt Gina will be having her 2nd wedding in Clarksburg for all those who couldn't attend the Disney Wedding...pregnant me...sigh...Cameron & Genin will play at home on Sunday. Our family enjoyed a soccer picnic at the coaches house on Friday. The parents socialized while the boys played football and capture the flag (still unsure what that game is about) The kielbasa was awesome and I was starved of course! My good friend Jill made the best potato salad I have ever eaten and I downed about 8 of my own deviled eggs. Cameron made my famous pepperoni cheese ball for the first time and was very proud of himself! I hope that we will do these get togethers more often ;)
Reiner's actual birthday was on April 28 so we had his birthday dinner with just us (he had his friend/extended party at the PA Trolley Museum last Sunday) He chose his own dinner-chicken nuggets, french fries and corn. How easy is he? I asked him what he wanted for dessert and he said, "I like strawberries and cake", well, strawberry cake it is then!
Lost and Found
Do we ever have a week without losing something?!
Lost: Old Navy Teal Shoe size 7 1/2, belonging to Dede, last seen with its mate by the front door.
What we love about this week!!!
Reiner has finally started enjoying baths. It was usually a fight to get him in and an even bigger fight to get him cleaned off. I am happy to announce that he is now getting in, washing himself (with a little help from me) and getting out without whining..yahoo!
Having yummy Pampered Chef food! I haven't been to one of these parties in a while. We had seasoned pork and an awesome salad that I plan on duplicating very soon!
Consignment Shops!! I went to 2 old favorites and found a new one this week. These always satisfy my cravings until yard sale season :)
More of the week:
I have been going back and forth between chores this week. I have been spring cleaning, cleaning out my 4 car garage and pricing yard sale stuff. I am a definite multi tasker. Greg hates that about me...to him it just looks like a mess, but to me it is very organized. I love how it feels when I get everything finished and all at one time because of the way I choose to do it.
Question of the week? Why do my kids towels smell like corn chips?!
When they come out of the wash they smell wonderful...must be the cabinet they are stored in. Reiner told me that he didn't want to use a towel because they smelled...he told me he would let the air dry his naked body.
Next weeks news!!
Hopefully we will hear of some inducing soon..hint, hint...until next week!
