Late to Bed

This evening Staci was so excited to go to tumbling class. Last week she learned how to do a back tuck on the floor and couldn't wait to show it to Mom. But at class she wasn't able to do that. Her coach didn't work with her much in that area. She did do plenty of other fun things that we enjoyed watching but not what she really wanted to work on. Maybe next week she can show off her new stuff.

While we were at the gym Xander threw a couple of fits and lost his pillow pet, blanket & Jimbo (build a bear). So the entire way home he yelled at Mom. Then when we got home he went straight into Mom & Dad's room. He grabbed a pillow off the bed and looked at Mom. When Mom asked what he was doing he said, "You lost a pillow because you are in big trouble." Mom couldn't believe it. What was going on with her little boy. He got worse from here. He was throwing such a tantrum that Mom was getting more frustrated by the minute. She ended up holding his bedroom door shut while he was kicking and screaming. Once he finally laid down he was asleep in less than five minutes.

Dad called to let Mom know he was going to be later than he thought just after all of this. Mom knew there was nothing Dad could do but he listened to Mom's frustration.

The girls were great! They got ready for bed and then Staci read stories for them together. Mom then got into bed and didn't move the rest of the night.

Learning to Hula

Today was a big day for Kaitlyn. We registered her for Kindergarten. It didn't quite go as planned for Mom though. We all got up early with Staci and took her to school. Then we got in line for the registration. Mom was feeling pretty good because we were like 12th one there. But as we waited for 45 minutes and got up to the front of the line they wouldn't put Kaitlyn's name on the list because we didn't have prove of our address. Mom wasn't aware that we needed it since we already have one child at the school and they should have this on file. They said they could give her the paperwork but that she couldn't be added to the list until they can verify where we live. Mom had to go home. She was furious and hoped that we could still get Kaitlyn into this school. Here in Pocatello they have open enrollment so you can take your kids where ever you want. This doesn't make any sense why it matters where you live then anyways but Mom hurried as quickly as she could...

This morning the kids all slept in but we had to get them going since today was going to be a busy day. We made pancakes & eggs for breakfast. After we ate it was time for Staci to say good bye to Cami & take her home. They had a fun sleepover although Staci has been one onwry girl every since. So it will be a few weeks before she can have another sleep over, that is for sure. We left to go and get Dad's new toy, a new BBQ grill. We got it at Costco for a little more money than Mom had originally thought when Dad started searching a few months ago. But this grill has everything; an oven, ice box, a searing station, griddle and more. It is everything Dad wants in a BBQ. But now Dad can do all the big cooking outside and not use up the kitchen for the big dinners that he puts on for people. Dad is a great cook and Mom's know this will get plenty of use. Well we got home and then had to get Xander changed to be ready for his big game. It was his first t-ball game today and...
