Just your typical Tuesday

I love going back over this blog and reading what we were up to all those years ago. So for myself, here is what we did on a typical day.....

Xander in the bath. It has taken months to get him to put his head back in the water like this - so I had to take a picture.

Andrew is gone from 5:30am to 6pm most nights. We hardly see him. He had just walked through the door from marching band, sat on the couch and chatted with me and Ben about his day. He also got two packages in the mail today. His AP Calc study guide and a charger cable for his motorcycle. Guess which one he actually cared about and looked at.....  After this we had dinner then Andrew drove to a friends house to help this friend fix his motorcycle. Andrew got home at 10pm then headed down and went to sleep so he could get up at 5am and do it all again.

Ben has been home for 2 weeks and I've been loving it. We've had music in our house again, help driving kids around, running errands, playing games, and chatting. This was him just hanging out with Andrew and I taking a break from playing City of Stars on the piano.

Xander probably has the hardest life out of everyone. We dealt him into our game of 9's last night and he cried the whole time since he didn't know how to play. No he doesn't want your help. No he can do it! No, he can't do it! Needless to say he went to bed right after this.....at 7pm.

Nick is all about 9's and he won't let us get away with not ending our day with it.  He loves when he wins and has a goal of being tall enough to draw his own card. Nick felt like a big kid because after this game Kallie popped some popcorn and we all watched the new Twisters movie.  Some of us (not me...or Nick) even made it to the end of the movie!
