quiet

Nice, quiet, uneventful weekend at home.  We needed it!  The only bummer was that most of us were dealing with a cold, and due to the weather we postponed our annual skeet shoot party.  On Friday Mike's packing shed didn't run and he actually got the whole day off.  I was able to go out and run a bunch of errands by myself for the morning!  On Sunday, due to all the snotty noses, we did not go to church.  However, in the afternoon Mike and I both had meetings to attend at church, and he had to usher for the evening service.  So, I took the boys with me to my meeting and set them up in the corner with snacks and Curious George on my laptop.  After the meeting was done we just hung out in that room until Mike was done ushering and came to get us to go home.

I absolutely love listening to my kids learn different words and how to express themselves!  The other day Levi said something about the "pile" on his thumb.  :)  He has callouses on both thumbs thanks to being a thumb-sucker.

A couple months ago I hauled out my Phantom of the Opera and Fiddler on the Roof cd's and put them in the van to listen to.  The boys LOVE them!  I can't wait until they're old enough to go see the musicals.  :)  Anyways, if you ever hear one of them going around saying something like, "...and you've got your eye on the Rabbi's son..." (Like Logan was the other day...) now you know where it's coming from.  :)
