fall break

after the shortest (but longest) quarter of the year, i was soooo grateful to have the one week break.  my mom went home friday and came back thursday, so during that time one of us slept in the room with caleb.  he always sleeps on my mom's bed until she moves him back to his or he falls on the floor, so i got to sleep with him for most of those nights.  usually in the middle of the night i'd move him back to his bed cuz it's just too hot sleeping on a twin bed with the little one clinging to your side.  i sure do love falling asleep with him, though!  he's my little cuddly baby...i force him to cuddle me since bryn doesn't wanna cuddle.  :-) 

staying home with them is always fun.  we didn't do a whole lot this break...the cloudy/drizzly weather made for just going out weather, but we did get to go to the discovery center and zoo one day.  discovery center is just a little bit too nutts for an anti-social person like me, so once it started getting hella crowded, we headed to the zoo.  i know we went to school a couple days, but i don't really remember what else we did. 

today we went hunting for halloween costume supplies...decided they are going to be spam musubis, which is just a slight variation of their tamago sushi costume.  got foam board at ben franklin, white shirts at target, and fabric from fabric mart.  we lucked out and found just the right shade for the spam.  my sewing skills straight suck, but i managed to put their costumes together (eh, as along as nobody can see the ugly stitches and the thing no fall apart, it's good enough!). 

tomorrow it's back to the grind...hopefully this quarter will go by just as quick as first quarter and the kids will still be on track!
