Well, now that we are settled in with school and activities we have another busy month ahead of us! This last weekend the kids and I went to my Step Brother Nicks wedding in Mineral Point. It was a really nice casual wedding and a gorgeous day! Angie, Nicks wife is SO wonderful and they are such a great pair together. I am so glad to see him so happy. Grace has also gained another cousin. Angie has a daughter, Cameron, that is the same age as Grace. The two of them get along like the best of friends, it really is something to see. They are both glued together each time they are together!
Sunday Nick and Angie were having a brunch at their house so Aaron joined us at the hotel in Mineral Point late Sat. night after the Badger game so we could all go for brunch. We arrived in Dodgeville at Nick and Angies a half hour early so decided to check out the near by park. It was so beautiful with the leaves changing color and falling. We had a really nice time enjoying the wonderful playground, complete with a merry-go-round, teter totter and long metal slide. FUN TIMES!!
This next weekend we are traveling down to Chicago for me to attend the Style Max show at the Merchandise Mart in Chicago with Marilee and her sister Patti. I am SO excited! Aaron and the kids are going to hang out with Grandpa on Saturday and may hit some of the museums. Aaron and I have plans to have a nice dinner after my long day of "work" then meet up with his friend Rich and girlfriend for drinks. Bill and Marilee were nice enough to get us set up with their friends Tom and Cathy's downtown condo for the night! I am so looking forward to a date night with my husband, we are due!
KIDDO UPDATE:
The munchkin and munchkinette are doing well!! Grace finished up with soccer on Sat. and is looking forward to it starting again in the spring. She came home from dance last night and she was excited to show me her new dance to Hannah Montana that they are learning. After a little thought she was able to remember the first couple of steps they learned thus far!!
Owen has been a little cutie pie lately and his language skills have been soaring. He just started saying "football" two weeks ago and that is all we hear whenever we turn on the TV. He has also added cup, car, keys and is trying to say puppy that comes out "pup". He has started to run now and sure does get those little legs going. His new found love is reading books and giggles when Mom and dad put him on our laps to read. His favorite book is Pat the Bunny and also likes, Touch and Feel Puppy and Five Little Monkeys. The last couple days he will sit down on the floor paging through books all day long. This is sure a fun time!
