Busy, busy, busy!!!

Tuesday morning found a very excited Drew getting ready to have a play-date at his friend Christopher's house.  Christopher is one of his new friends in JK, and we often hear his name when Drew is talking about school.  Since Drew had been having trouble with being dropped off at school, I was trying to figure out how to get in contact with these kids he kept talking about....to try and set up a play-date.  My solution was to make myself seem like a bit of a loser, and send home little notes with the Valentine's day packages we sent everyone....it went something like, "Hi, Drew would love to have a play-date, if you're interested, please e-mail me"...and I gave them my e-mail address.  

Christopher's mom e-mailed me, and we set up a time for them to meet.  James took Drew over, as Christopher was home with his dad and the boys had a great time!  

Once Drew got home from his date, we hung out for a while (Hunter was sleeping) and then Drew, Hunter and I headed to M-A's house for a momstown cooking event.  We made brownies, and while neither of the boys was really very interested in the cooking portion of the day, we all had fun and were able to eat delicious brownies.

 After the cooking play-date, we headed up to Nana and Papa's.

Wii with Nana.

 Drew fell asleep on the way there, and had a pretty good nap while we were there.  I woke him up at 5:45.

 After dinner, we played for a while, the usual, trains, wagons, bikes, etc.  Hunter is really into his "baby" lately.  Gives it lots of hugs and kisses.  On this day, he decided the baby needed to go for a walk in his mega-blocks wagon.

Wednesday was James' first day off.  He stayed home with H, while I took Drew to school and stayed and volunteered until 10am.  Drew was the special helper and was very excited to do this job.....he got to bring in his favorite book and a few toys to share with the class.

Once home from volunteering, James, H and I left to go meet our friend Erin for lunch.  We met at East Side Mario's in Burlington (she works in Burlington) and had a yummy lunch of soup, salad and bread.  H was really good during lunch.  Surprising, because we woke him from a nap to be there on time.

After lunch, we went to a few stores to find me a bathing suit and then rushed over to Pineview to pick Drew up.  A few hours of playtime at the house and then James took Drew to Georgetown to play at the Early Years Centre for their Dad's connect program.  This program is awesome.  They hold it one Wednesday a month, from 5:30-7:30.  They serve dinner, and the dads and kids can play and hang out.  Apparently really fun.

While Drew and James were gone, H and I built some towers, played with Snickers, read some books and watched some Thomas.  He had a bath and then went to bed early...as he had hardly napped that day.  Drew fell asleep on the way home, and once James put him in bed, we watched "My Sister's Keeper".  It had been on TV and I had DVR'd it.  It was an awesome movie, but I cried through the entire thing.  So sad.

Anyways, that's it....oh, and the farm is for sale.  Officially now.  Dad met with some real estate people and they are coming by to put the signs up next week.  It doesn't seem real to me, and probably won't until it actually sells........who knows how long that will take.
