Little man number 2 is on the way! April 11th is the due date but since I am a c-section momma it will most likely be april 2 or 3rd!

Halloween!

This has to be one of my FAVORITE holidays. I mean really who doesn't like going door to door and essentially begging for free Candy? I LOVE candy too. I would rather have some sort of candy that baked goods. Candy is like a drug for me. When I was little I would save all my money to go to Osco drugs and get candy. So when after going just around the block Gavin asked to be done I was a little annoyed. Hey bud we have 3 more blocks to go. Not to mention my little cheerleader was getting us extra goods because everyone LOVES ASU! ( well at least we all DID, ughhh rudy)

We had fun anyway. It was still pretty hot for October I think.

Miss Baylie and her early Terrible 2's

So Bays has got to be one of the most mischeivious, sassy, cute, smart little girls out there. She has seriously hit her terrible 2's and she still has a couple months to go!

The other morning I gave her a bath and then went to get dressed and stuff. I didn't hear her for a while and so I went looking for her. I came up the stairs to find this:

She LOVES Lotion. So I put her back in the bath and then she came out with the shampoo upside down and a trail from the bath to my room.

Note HOME!!

When we started Young Learners this year I knew that Gav would be what should I say Social? I mean truly he comes by that completely honestly. I was moved chairs quiet often in my school days for what my teachers would call 'excessive' talking. Now I would not call it that. I just had to converse with my people. You know about what teach was saying and what was going on around campus the norm.

Anyway, So I went in for Gavins parent teacher conference and his teacher told me that he is the 'Chatty Kathy' of the class. I just smiled. She said that the problem is that he is just SOOO funny she doesn't ever tell him to be quiet. But, she did however, have to switch him seats for the first time. She, in a very smart decision I might add, put him by the 2 quietest girls in class. (I did not have the heart to tell her that those 2 girls probably will not be quiet after sitting by Gav.) :)

So about a week later I pick him up from school and he says,

G:'Mom, I was bad in Music class."

M: Well what did you do?

G: I forgot.

M: What do you mean you forgot?

G: Well I forgot but theres a note in my backpack that you have to sign.

WHat!!! So I pull out the note. It is Bright Green. I might add that this is Gavs fav color. So I am sure he did not get the severity of that. It read.

Your child was asked to leave and not participate in music today due the the following reasons...

There was about 10 choices and these where the 2 marked. Making obscene gestures and not following instructions.

Ok, so now I am panicking a little. I was thinking did he learn to flip someone off? what was he doing?

So I told Gav that we were going to go and talk to his teach and that he had to apologize for acting up in class.

I come in and she says Gavin tell you mom what you did. ALARM~ don't you think I already asked him? I am here to talk to YOU. Let me deal with him. Anyway, he told her he forgot. So she says well this has been going on for 3 weeks now and I just sent you a note. Today he had already been asked not to run in class and then he ran again.

REALLY? is THAT ALL? I know Gav and he would just run because he's excited about something. So I bite my tongue and say OK?

And then I asked the kids to line up in this corner of the room and they were suppose to be following me in a STRAIGHT line. I turned around and Gavin was dancing.

WAIT WAIT WAIT....hold up. For those of you who know me I am pretty witty. I have been known to be very sarcastic and sometimes perceived as even rude. Now I am trying to be the professional parent here ya know. But I am thinking well, was there MUSIC playing? Because I don't know how you do things in your MUSIC class but in our family if theres music we dance! and do you REALLY have nothing better to do than kick my kid out of class for running and dancing? Judas priest.

So I said thank you it will never happen again and walked out?

What do you all think is that lame or do you think it warrants a note home and all?

Happy Birthday Gavers!

This post is late I am just catching up!

So my oldest turned 5! Seriously time flys. It is crazy. Gavin is such a great big helper to his mom. He is the best big brother any sister could ask for. He is so protective and loving to his sister. Gav likes everyone to feel included. He wants everyone to have fun and have a good time. He also loves when people laugh and will do anything to get them to laugh.

Happy Birthday bud. We love you!
