Sunday Snapshots - better days.

   I hope that everyone had a wonderful weekend and got a chance to spend some quality time with friends and family. This weekend was super busy for us. Since baby boy is not here yet, I took that opportunity to do majority of my Christmas shopping. I say that I am about 80% done. The kids also got a chance to finish purchasing gifts for each other using money they have saved and earned from doing chores. I happy that for the first time since I had kids I might be ready for Christmas ahead of the game.
   On the good note, we are all feeling better now, so today was the first time in a month that we have gone to Girly Monkey's game. It was nice to get out of the house and watch her game. The weather was cold but sunny, so we all got some vitamin D today. Here are couple of snapshots from the game today. Enjoy, while I go and rest my very sore body (walking for hours at 39 weeks pregnant is going to give you a really sore and swollen leg!)

Sunday Snapshots - another cake!

   Hello to all my readers. I hope that everyone had a wonderful day of rest and got a chance to do something relaxing for themselves. We had a busy day as always (I can't remember last time that days were not busy!). We started with Girly Monkey's soccer game and then we drove around a bit to see if we could find a new truck for Daddy. No luck though, so he can't do his work tomorrow. I then finished the cake and we drove over to Grandma and Gramps' place to share the Birthday cake with them. It's always great going over to their place since Monkeys LOVE spending time with their grandparents. Have I said how great it is that Daddy's parents are so involved in Monkeys' lives? Well, it's great!
   Don't forget to come back tomorrow for Money-Wise Mondays!

Another foggy morning

This is another cake for Girly Monkey. This time she
wanted a peacock.

She has had 3 6th birthdays now. Does that mean that she is 18?

Sunday Snapshots

   I hope that your Sunday was relaxing and enjoyable. We had spent morning at Girly Monkey's soccer game, and then came home and did some painting with the Monkeys. Then I found out that I have finally caught the bug that the rest of my family got over already. So I am sick! Not very fun when I'm so far along with my pregnancy. But my wonderful husband picked up a treat tonight!
Don't forget Money-Wise Mondays tomorrow!

Daddy's great treat - he brought us all Chinese food take-out so I wouldn't have to cook tonight
and have time to get better!

This is one crazy schedule!

Girly Monkey ready
to dance

   This week marked the beginning of our crazy fall schedule in almost full force. I knew it was coming and I was trying to get ready for it. I already covered my school schedule, and it's very demanding. It's so demanding that if we fall behind we have to catch up on the weekends. But throw into the mix two dance classes for Girly Monkey, three for Funky Monkey, one soccer practice for each and one game each and you have one full schedule, and that doesn't even include a dance class for little Monkey that will start next week.

his sister's soccer game

   Every day of the week there is an activity with the exception of Mondays.Tuesday- Girly Monkey has ballet class and Little Monkey has dance class, Wednesday- Funky Monkey has a Ballet class and soccer practice, Thursday- Girly Monkey has soccer practice, Friday- Funky Monkey has Modern dance class. Saturday is the craziest of all, with Funky Monkey having Ballet practice that ends the same time as his soccer game begins and they are about 45 minutes apart from each other. So he has to miss last 10 minutes of his Ballet and have me rush him to his game (since Daddy is the coach he has to be there for the beginning of the game and can't help me) which he misses half of..
