It's Valynn's 8th birthday today. Happy Birthday! It's hard to believe how grown up she is getting. She is constantly surprising us with what she knows and her maturity. Saturday night she had a sleepover for her birthday. She had five friends stay over. They had a great time playing the Wii, watching Hannah Montana the Movie, and just hanging out. Mark and I have decided that finishing the basement is now a priority because they are LOUD and our house echoes so bad. The girls were very well behaved, stayed up late and woke up early.
Friday after school I got a little surprise. Valynn and Mason came home from school with an extra kid. There was a mix up at school, a dad called to say K had a paper to go home with Mason and the teacher interpreted it as K has a paper saying he can go home with Mason. Mason goes "I don't know why he came home with me". K said "Mrs. S. told me to go home with Mason". I knew there was a mix up somewhere. So I called his mom who then called the dad to see what happened and then his mom came and picked him up. Definitely reaffirms why we live in a small town, we just laughed at the incident and were thankful we were acquaintances so that we had some idea of who our child goes home with.
Saturday was Mason's last two football games. It was COLD outside, no snow but if there was any precipitation it would have been snow. Mason carried the ball twice, once for 25 yards and another for 5 yards. Sunday we stayed home and watched the Vikings beat the Rams. The kids are home from school today, we're going to get a few things done around the house and just take it easy.
Kyleigh has gone through a mental growth spurt in the last couple of weeks. She is really starting to comprehend what is being said to her. If you say time to brush your teeth she is in the bathroom on the stool waiting for her toothbrush. If you tell her nap time she heads to the bedroom. When you tell her to go find dad, she takes off looking for him. She still isn't saying much for words but I know that will come soon enough. She even learned how to climb up the stool to see what's on the counter.
Have a great week!
