12/7/12

FINALLY FRIDAY!!!! After weeks of having one or two days off every week, it was tough to work a full week! I know; woe is me.

The day actually went pretty fast. Since my car is out of commission right now, we rode into St. Paul together this morning. We dropped the girls off at my mom’s, I dropped Christian off at work and then took the truck with me. Like usual, work has still been crazy for both of us. Christian didn’t even get off work until 6:30 today, which hasn’t been unusual. He is supposed to work tomorrow, but will be working on the car instead. Busy guy! The girls have been doing great at school. They’re very winter focused right now and having a lot of fun with that. In Olivia’s class, their “Letter of the Week” this week is “O”. Of course, she’s in HEAVEN because “O” is HER letter. Ha. They’ve been making all kinds of fun and super cute crafts lately, and Olivia, with her perfectionist mentality, always has the best stuff for me. I love it!

The girls and I ate dinner and hung out, but they were pretty unnerving tonight. I was very happy to see Christian walk in the door and take over for a while, that’s for sure. We got them off to bed and watched a couple episodes of Dexter before heading off to bed…started Season 3 now! Plugging right along!

Before bed, we’d discovered that Buddy must have spent the entire day collecting all of the mega blocks and building himself an awesome fort to protect against the evil piggy banks. Here is Buddy Day 7: Fort Fun:

I also took a shot of our house, all lit up with a coating of snow. LOVE IT!!!

And, poor Chuy - clearly not a fan. Really, he actually doesn't mind the snow. But the cold and wind sure gets to him! Gonna have to dig out his sweater and try it on again :)
