Getting in Some Friend Time

With Kylie in Preschool I feel like my days are completely filled.  Mornings are just a countdown to school, and then after school it's snack time, playtime, dinner time and then bedtime.  The days have just been going by too quick!

Kylie just loves school though.  Luckily she was well enough to go on Monday after she had been sick all weekend.  They started computers this week and one day they even made a pizza!  Kylie likes to write her name on everything now and I can tell she has more concentration for an activity instead of being done with something in two minutes.

Hayden is loving life.  We got him new shoes and he likes to spend forever trying to put them on and figuring out the velcro straps.  He also says 'No' now to everything, as well as 'Hey' (in a singsong voice).

On Friday we had a fun filled day.  Since Kylie doesn't have school that day, and her friend Kennedy gets out early that day, we usually try to do something together with them.  This Friday we went to the park and played on the playground and water.  Only this time Kylie and Hayden weren't so interested in getting all wet but playing with Kennedy and Acadia's bikes and scooters.  Thankfully they brought enough to share so there wasn't much fighting (except over the pink ones...)

After a fun-filled morning at the park we went home and had lunch and then Sophia came over!  Kylie and Sophia played all afternoon while Hayden slept.  They were both good little helpers and helped Angela and me make decorations for Sophia's party next week.  Then, when they started fighting too much ( Those two can fight like it's the end of the world!) we gave them some scissors and pictures to cut out and they were seriously quiet for 45 minutes cutting out things.  It was so nice!

Then later that evening we went grocery shopping with Brandon.  It was a late night for the kids and a busy day!

Saturday wasn't so bad; we didn't do as much.  The only thing worth mentioning was going swimming in the evening.  Both Kylie and Hayden were so happy to be out of the house and swimming, which we haven't done since Labor Day! (The river last week doesn't count).

Today we got to go back to our ward finally (Labor Day weekend and then sick kids last week... it's been a while!) and Kylie was so excited to go to Primary.  Even Hayden was happy going to Nursery, something that hasn't happened before! Yay!
