Saturday, Saturday

I couldn't believe I got to sleep in this morning! Cailean woke up with the boys and I stayed in bed until 8:45am! When I finally woke up, I thought I slept the day away...I'm not used to that at all. We had basketball practice at 11am today and it was nice to see the team again after a two week break. I LOVE the fact our team has a great set of parents who help Leslie and I out. It makes all the difference in the world!! We're looking forward to next Saturday for our first game! Go Armadillos!!!!

Ian is really doing a great job with basketball. He is really into it and just loves playing. Gavin was eager to get on the court, but he had to sit on the bleachers with Sammy for the practice!! What a trooper! He'll have his turn in February when he gets to take swim lessons for the first time and Ian will have to watch him.

After practice we made two stops to grocery stores to get items for tonight's dinner. We had the Reids over and I made a pot of homemade spaghetti sauce, 2 kinds of dessert...so we had a nice spaghetti dinner, garlic bread, a beautiful and delicious salad made by Leslie, some appetizers, drinks and dessert. Yea, there went my points for the week!!! The kids had a blast playing. They played the ESPN Zone downstairs, pulled out the majority of the toys we own upstairs and Max and Ian were into the Wii for a little bit before winding down with Alvin and the Chipmunks.

Ian wanted to do some homework this afternoon when Gavin was naping. He wrote down all of his sight words. He is reading books to us, too. Amazing. It's the best to hear him read to us!!!! He really enjoys reading the room and Gavin tries to do the same thing!!!!

I am definitely not looking forward to heading back to our crazy schedule on Monday. UGH!!! Work, school, etc. It'll be hard!!!!!

We've got three birthday parties three weekends in a row this month. Should be a good time!!!!
