Skating Update

Well, everyone survived!!!! Todd said the kids did great! Not that I'm surprised by that. Gunnar and Bailey love to skate, so there was no question about them. Gates the dare devil was apparently determined to do it all alone. He is quite the little athlete. Todd didn't even have to put skates on this time, which normally we do. Most of the time we go out with Gates, and hold his hand, or completely hold him up til he gets the hang of it. Not this time though. Gunnar and Bailey took him under their wing and helped him out. Todd said they were wonderful with him. Gates came home roaring with excitement about how much fun he had. The girls were pooped so the mission was accomplished!!!!

Sunday Sunday

Happy Sunday!!! I'm enjoying a nice quiet day at home while Todd has the kiddos out to skate. He took Gunnar, Gates and Bailey(a friend of Gunnars) skating at Jelly Beans. What a good dad he is! The girls came down and ask me to go and I said "No Way". I was tired after being out a little late Saturday night, baby shower then out for dinner with some friends... Anyway, I have to work tonight and I need to lay low, so Todd being the good dad he is jumped out of bed, threw some clothes on and out the door he went with all the kids in tow. I will update later on how everyone did at the skating rink. Maybe I will even have some pictures to include. Todd is usually pretty good about taking pics....

Track Out

Gunnar doesn't go back to school til the 21st of January. She's tracked out and enjoying every minute of it. We are trying to find lots of fun stuff to occupy our time. I think we've seen almost every movie thats out, (Princess and the Frog, Chipmunks, Blind Side, Fantastic Mr. Fox)we've been to Bounce U--which is a great inflatable bounce house just down the road. While my mom was here we went to Marbles Kids Museum--it was a MAD house!!!! It isn't usually so busy but I think everyone had the same idea as us that day. It was still fun tho. In the coming week and a half we are planning to Ice skate and Roller skate and who knows what else we will get into. Gunnar is still going to jump rope and swim practice several days a week. She has a jump rope show next Friday for some preschools. That should be fun. Then as I said in my last post, we have our first gymnastics meet Friday the 15th.. I can tell Todd is getting a little nervous, but he is definately ready for the season to get under way!!!! Until next time...
