The kids had the flu this week, but they both did very well. And with all the running around and cleaning, it strangely seemed to speed time up :) Also, it really wore out the kids, so they slept a lot!
Hmm...what else. Halloween was fun. I took the kids out for about 1.5 hours. Isaac just stayed in the wagon and sarah ran from house to house. She had a blast. I left candy on our doorstep with a note, and was happy to see people were really honest. There was still candy when we got back! We didn't get many trick or treaters after that, so I had lots of candy left over. I really wanted it out of my house, so I looked into the "candy buy back" I had heard about. I convinced Sarah to sell back 3/4 of her candy, as she was really excited that the dentist turns it into apples for the food bank. She loves to help others. It was a great experience. She got a toothbrush and had a "green smoothie". I would definitley do it again!
We also discovered the new science center this week. It's GREAT!! Sarah LOVES acting. She is always putting on some sort of "Show". They have a theater there with costumes, and she spent 2 hours putting on shows, while me and isaac explored the other things. Isaac loved it too. It's nice to find somewhere they keeps my 1 year old AND my 5 year old busy and happy. So.....we bought a year pass :) I think we will go once a week. I like coffee and scream, but sarah is getting too old for it. I like Stir Crazy, but Isaac is a bit young for it, and it can definitley get "crazy" when it's busy. So...finally found a place to play in the winter :)
Ethan is doing well on his course. We skype every day, and the kids are getting use to him being gone.
My mother in law is here for all of week 4! It's soooo nice to not be on my own this week!!
I guess that's it. Oh, and Daylight Savings is EVIL.... I hate it.
