Weekend Review

This are starting to get a little more normal this week.  Taft was back in school for an entire week and the report from his teachers was that he was great.  I was worried with being out of school  for almost an entire three weeks.  I just knew that he was going to go back and drive them crazy.
I have been behind on everything.  Blogging, link ups, emails, comments, and all housework in general.  I am finally starting to dig myself out.  So if you have contacted me and not heard a response, I promise that I am getting to you.  With Taft being sick and travel and me not taking my medicine the way that I should, I sometimes feel like me head is spinning and nothing is ever going to get done.
On Saturday, we went to a sweet little friends birthday party.  She was turning two!  Isn't she the cutest little thing?

The boys also enjoyed riding in the wagon.  Taft even tried pulling people.  He did pretty well in fact.

And to follow in the tradition started last year, Joyce gave Taft a thank you kiss for his gift.  He got a little blushy this year.

Then on Sunday, we finally got around to painting Taft's dinosaurs.  He got them as a birthday gift in June.  With all the craziness this last month, it was the first time we were home and well.

Now off to the rest of the week.

Sunday, December 5th

 Since Quincy's first visit, Taft has asked him for paint.  Quincy finally came through for him.  Thankfully, Quincy listened to me when we had out little talk and the paint came on a weekend.  He brought finger paint, paper, and a new smock which keep the new PJ's nice and clean.

Quincy's First Visit

It is finally December 1st!  Taft and I talked about Quincy last night and how he was coming to see him again this year. He keep saying "Quincy" and "Elf". 

I was happy to see that Quincy got in the house before it started to rain and he and I were able to have a little talk.  We talked about the fact that if he is bringing something to play with or a video that he would need to bring it in the afternoon after we get home from school so that it will not disrupt our morning. 


After I went to bed, Quincy got into my scrapbooking supplies!  He got out some new stamps and paint and made Taft a Merry Christmas sign.  This is what we found on the coffee table.  Taft thought it was great but he wanted to paint too.  So - he told Quincy to bring him some paint.  Ha!



After getting his surprise, Taft gave Quincy a thank you kiss and then put on some of his Reindeer Chapstick.  He loves "lips" as he calls it.  I bet he had the softest lips in school today because I think that he used half of it before he got there.
