Last weekend before school!

It's Friday night and I am busy! Today started off as taking the girls to the doctor for their well child check ups and then went to see my mom at the hotel and go swimming. We even got see an old family friend that I have seen in years. So we got home from the hotel in time to watch our Friday ritual...Wizards of Waverly Place on Disney Channel. Now it's quarter to 10 and I am getting Kaitlyn ready for school on Monday. We met her teacher on Thursday. Mrs. Pachek is her name and Kaitlyn seems really excited for school. Also Kaitlyn went to her friend, Kirstin's house on Thursday to swim and make your own pizza. Kirstin was supposed to be in Kaitlyn's class but she is going to go to Benjamin Franklin Charter School...makes me want to put Kaitlyn there because she really likes Kirstin, or maybe because I really like Helen. I feel as though the parents to the kids at the school don't like to talk to me because I am not in my 30s almost 40s. Just because I am younger doesn't mean that I don't want my child talking to your child. I want Kaitlyn to make so many friends. Also she is going to be in soccer this fall. YEAH!! I can't believe that Kaitlyn is starting 1st grade on Monday... :( She has soooo many clothes that I am trying to figure out where I am going to put them all. Anthony cleaned out both girl's dresser and pulled out anything that doesn't fit them, but apparently Kaitlyn's dresser is still packed. THEN I took all of the clothes that are on hangers in her closet to go through them and pack up the ones that don't fit anymore to make room for the new ones. This years theme is Hannah Montana. I love school and buying the school supplies. So much is going on this past week...Samantha turning 3 and getting Kaitlyn ready for school. Alright...I am off to get what I can done before tomorrow...we are going to the inlaws for Samantha's and Nick's birthday party and I have A LOT to do so that on Sunday I can just veg out with the family!

Samantha's Third Birthday


It's Sunday and the house is quiet...kids and Anthony are sleeping and I am awake downstairs watching Ghostbusters 2. Yesterday was Samantha's Third Birthday Party! We had a BLAST! The theme was Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, we had pizza, Baked Caprese Salad, and the cake was from Cathy's Rum Cake! The cake was vanilla with chocolate chip custer in the middle of the cake. My parents were there, so was my brother, Anthony's brothers, Heather and her son Nathan, Sara, Roxanne, Jake, Ryliegh, and Sara Nick's Girlfriend. Samantha got so much stuff...I think her favorite gift was a tie between Bolt the Stuff Animal and the Minnie Mouse Vacuum that Kaitlyn picked out for her. Samantha was so exhausted that she fell asleep at the table tonight sitting in her chair. It was so cute. Kaitlyn is sleeping in my bed right now so I am going to need to move her before I go to sleep. I am off from work until Tuesday and then I am off Friday and Monday of next week so I can take the kids to the doctors for a check up and for Kaitlyn's first day of 1st grade. We got everything that she will need for school. Shoes, Hannah Montana lunch box, clothes, etc. She is really excited. Also she is going to her friend's house on Thursday for lunch and swimming and I know that she is excited for that as well. My mom is also coming out again this coming weekend...can't wait to see her again...she's the best! I can't believe how quickly the girls are growing up...Samantha is just the best and Kaitlyn is getting bigger and smarter before my eyes. Also this past week was my dad's birthday...we got him a couple of games and a case for his Nintendo DS. I am glad I am off tomorrow since it is actually Samantha's Birthday but I can get organized for the house and school...I have everything I just need to figure out where I need to put everything...we almost need a bigger place to live, but Anthony is convinced that I just need to get rid of stuff, but that is so hard to do. Alright, I am off to bed!
