Aww, they grow so fast!!

Zac loves Kelly's MP3 Player

And he loves his LeapPad too (we call it "Zac's computer!")...Look at that tripod grasp on the pen!! He's got it down!

And...Robert..he's growing up faster and faster...he went on his first 3 day "field trip"...here he is...trying on Andrew's suit!! I talked to him today and he told me how when he "revealed" himself in a suit two of the girls came up and hugged him and told him how handsome he is...then invited him to lunch at a Chinese restaurant. I can't wait til he gets home tomorrow and tells me more about his trip.

I have so many things I should catch up on and don't even know where to start. It's late, but I'll try to do a few lines...I hope they make sense....

Over the weekend we worked more on Kelly's room. We are closer to getting it insulated...we got her a Murphy bed..but it's about 4" too long to fold so we're gonna have to make a couple of changes. I am so lucky to have a handy hubby!

Her old bed (frame) was moved into Harley's room...he LOVED it when he got home announcing "it's PERFECT!" He now has a bookcase at his headboard for keeping his "Craftsman catalog"...(he collects catalogs and really, really LOVES the Sears Tool catalog! LOL)

We had to replace our sump pump..found out it wasn't working and then figured out why...because it had gotten overheated and it blew all the seals out on it.

Tonight I discovered that our sewer line has a slow leak, but only when we run the dishwasher...I gotta break the news to Andrew about that tomorrow when I see him.

Thursday we meet with Harley's school to finalize his behavior service plan..FINALLY! Tomorrow he is competing in a Special Olympics Soccer tournament and next week he's be participating in bowling (he's an amazing bowler!).

Friday I go in to the eye dr to get my visual field test so we can have a baseline and see if my vision improves, worsens or stays the same after surgery.

Then Saturday is Kelly's big day...A day she's been planning for about a month now..she is going to Six Flags for the day and then staying after dark to go through the Haunted House (I don't remember what the name of it is this year)..she and 9 of her closest friends..and she's managed to get free tickets for five of them (and herself!)

Tyler got his first perfect attendance award from school!! It has Curious George on it and he's treasuring it! It's so cool to see him so excited...now if only I could get him excited about getting up at 6:45 AM to get ready and go to school by 7:15...well then we'd be all set!

Oh this past weekend my ex was supposed to come to town to "spend time" with the kids. The weather was awful and they ended up closing some of the highways between Wyoming and Colorado..so he rescheduled for the weekend after next. Funny though...Robert came home sick from school on Friday..but when he got the call from his dad that he wouldn't be making it this weekend suddenly he felt fine and ate me out of house and home! :))...I told him I thought maybe it was stress and he needs to find some self calming techniques...

SO that's all I'm gonna write for tonight..My eyes hurt and I need to get some sleep before our long day again tomorrow!

Robert looks so handsome Tracy. I can see how proud you are. I bet it's a happy but sad time. How tall is he? He's a tall boy. Six flags at Halloween sounds like so much fun. Thinking of you, :D
