Lions at lunch time ~ Reading with C

Hey Ya'll ! Chritmas is just around the corner and I am SO excited :)

So it turns out that monday night, I actually stayed home alone ! And it was fine with me lol. Curtis got on with his coach to go to his game so Nicole and Brian went to Dylan's game with Kennedy and drove Brian to the airport afterwards so they didn't need me. They told me I was welcome to join them but I kinda didn't mind staying in, in front of the fireplace and watching the Sing-Off as Sara Ann had just reminded me it was on. So I enjoyed it.

Tuesday, the morning went really well (surprisingly since Brian had left the night before and its always a not so good morning the following day he leaves). But this one was great. The boys went off to school and I stayed home with Kennedy. She picked up her room just like her mom and I had asked her to and then we went Christmas shopping for her. We went to Walmart and she got everyone a little something. She got both D and C the same thing (each 2 hot wheels cars, a pack of Sillybandz and a pack of Xmas TicTac's). And for her mom and Dad, we picked out a frame and I told her I would get some pictures done to put them in it. She was pretty happy about her shopping. She also got little gifts bags and when we got home, she wrapped her brother's presents. At 1 she had her last gymnastics class so I took her over there but didn't stay at the beginning. I went out to Toys R Us to finish up their Christmas presents. I had already gotten her a fairy crafts book (All sorts of craft ideas invovlving fairies) so I just grabbed a little craft kit to make cute rings. For the boys, I got them each one of those new Lego board games so that should make them happy. I know they really like them as they already have one and are always talking about Legos ! When we came back from Gymnastics I picked up a bit and then it was already time to go pick up the boys at the bus stop to leave right away for Dylan's game in Carlisle (about 45 minutes from here).

His game was a 6:30 so we had to leave as soon as they got off cause he had to be there an hour in advance (they always do when it's games). So we headed that way and I followed the Gps... I was kind of stressed at a certain point because I had no idea where I was going and the stupid thing just had me passing by the back roads really lol ! If it wouldn't of been for the house sizes, I really would've thought I was in St-Jules. So even though I had no time to look around, I actually enjoyed rolling there. And it took us the same amount of time as any other route we could've taken. But ya, we got there on time and everything was great. The game was good and Dylan scored again so we were pretty happy !! And Nicole met us there and she got to see him score so it was pretty cool :) To come back, I just asked Nicole what road she had taken and it was so simply I couldn't believe it !! I actually only had to stay on the Arena road way down until I got Dundass (Main road who takes us back to Oakville)... Which obviously the Gps didn't feel like taking ! Those things are so weird sometimes !! Anyhow ! We got home and went to bed !

As for yesterday, the morning was also a great one and as soon as I got the kids off to school, I headed strait to Mississauga to go shopping at Square one. I actually didn't buy much but it was ok :) I didn't have that much to buy except a few presents so I got Sara Ann's done, and a part of my brother Andrew's done too. Then I came back, did the groceries and got Kennedy's pictures done at the same time. So when we came back from school a little later after that, we wrapped her present for her mommy and daddy. So she put all of her presents under the tree. The boys got home and Bradley came over (Neighboor from down the street which is a really good friend of C's. The played on the ice a little and then him and C went to his place for dinner. When Nicole came home, she reminded me of that Silpada party she had (Jewlery party) and I had told her I would babysit. So after she left, I called up J-f for a little chat and then Curtis came home at 8. We watched tv for a little while D and K were playing upstairs. At 9, we all went up so they could go to bed. Curtis was little dissapointed that his mom wasn't there because they have been reading this book together everynight for a while now (The lightning theif). I was really surprised (but kinda touched) when he asked if I could read to him. So I told him I wouldn't read the lightning thief as it was his and his mom's ritual and I didn't wanna go forward into the book with his mom missing out on it, cause I know she really enjoy's it. So he was totally fine with it and agreed. So he grabbed another book and we read.

"Lions at lunch time".

And we read... And we read.. !!! I know his mom usually reads with him until 9:45 sometimes or simply until he falls asleep cause she knows he will (He takes melatonine to sleep at night). But anyways we read the whole book. It wasn't an enormous one but we read each our chapters so it was obviously a little longer. But I LOVED it. It was just so fun to have this nice, quite and alone time with Curtis. He can be so nice and sweet. I love that kid. Anyhow I was still up when Nicole got home, looking at some pictures and videos from the floods and damage down home. She said she bought a couple of nice things and asked me not to tell Brian lol ! She is going to receive them threw the mail. We both went to bed and it was almost 11:30.

I knew I was going to have trouble getting up this morning (which I did !!) but anyways... So I got up around 7:15 this morning but it didn't matter really cause the kids all only got up around 8. Nicole was working from home today so when we saw that Curtis was just getting up around 8:10, she said to me not to rush them for this morning and that she would drive them to school so they would have a little extra time since they weren't taking the bus. Curtis had been up threw the night because one of his knees hurted. Nicole said it happened a few times not long ago and he didn't hit himself anywhere so she figures it is growth pain. I feel for the poor kid because I have had growth pain in my knees too when I was younger and gosh did it ever hurt. Anyways she gave him tylenol and he went back to sleep but we figured thats why he was up later this morning. But they both manage to be ready on time. Kennedy took her bath and when she came out, we baked some banana and chocolate chip muffins (mama's recipe) :) They were reallllly good ! Afterwards, I did alote of cleaning and passed the vaccum all around the house while Kennedy watched Tv and Nicole worked. She later went out to get some stuff done so Kennedy made crafts and I called up my dad, and then my mom.

They both mentionned how they are looking forward to seeing me next week. And I can't wait either. I can't wait to see all of them.. Especially my lovely boyfriend... I miss him so much. And he misses me too, he says it all the time. He was definitely right the other day when he was saying that our couple will be stronger after this. Not that it wasn't or anything like that, but it still will be. We had never been seperated so.. I miss him so much... I can't wait. I will probably get a drive down from Qc with his uncle's girlfriend on the 22th. My flight leaves Toronto the 22th and I will be in Qc at 10Am that morning. Sara Ann will come pick me up so I am pretty excited about that too :)

So tomorrow is the kids last day of school before their Holiday break. They all finish earlier. The boys will be in around 2:30 and Kennedy after lunch I think. Then it will be the weekend :) And thenn... Only 2 DAYS of work :)
