On Tuesday, Pop (Caroline now calls him Poppy) and Pat-Pat came to our neck of the woods and met us for dinner at our usual Mexican joint.
Cooper LOOOVEES Cheese Dip. I wonder if I could make that at home and slide some veggies in it?
Even Pat-Pat couldn't tear Caroline away from coloring and writing
On Friday, I got my hair cut and finally said goodbye to my highlights. I am officially my natural haircolor, which is pretty darn dark! I don't think Scott has ever known me with dark hair.
On Saturday morning, we woke up and went to the YMCA. I accomplished something that I never thought I would be able to do. I ran for 45 straight minutes!!! No stopping, walking, throwing up, just running around the track for 45 straight friggin minutes. I recently talked myself into signing up for the Mistletoe 5k in December with a few friends and wasn't too sure I could pull it off. Granted I wasn't running up and down hills in the cold, but I think I can do it now!
After that, the kids and I went to the pool for a little swim. Caroline is doing great! I still don't trust her without me being close, but she is smart and rolls over to her back and kicks herself to the side if she is unsure of herself. Such a smart cookie! Cooper is still learning, but I have faith that he will get there.
On Saturday night, we grilled out and watched some college football. The kids were playing basketball inside and figured out how to give themselves boobies with mini-basketballs.
Cooper calls them "Boodies"
On Sunday morning, I couldn't find my car keys anywhere. Of course, my spare keys were in the locked car, so those did no good! We searched everywhere and finally took another car to church. After we got back, I waved the white flag and called a locksmith assuming that both sets had to be in my car. Once the car was opened, I couldn't find my real set and figured they would show up somewhere. I found them later today in the sink - where else? Duh! Why didn't I look there?
After church, Caroline invited a few friends over to play. Both girls are in her same class and live just down the street from us. They played great together. Cooper was in hog-heaven with all his new friends. I don't think he realized that they came to play with Caroline.
While the girls played, I organized several kitchen cabinets and the pantry. I am in a throw-away mood and have been getting rid of tons of things lately. I think I threw away about 10 water bottles! I have also gotten a bit of an addiction to those big bags that you put pillows and blankets in and vacuum all of the air out. They are awesome! Our hall closet has never looked so good! I wish I would have taken before and after pictures!

Leigh: Are you sick or something!!!!!! Guess everything finally came to a good point where it was organize or else. HUH Judy
I would just let him eat dip and chips. I think he would be smart enough to know that there were veggies in the dip. What do you think???????? Judy
Judy, not I can't take it anymore!!!! I thought alot about you and was thinking that if I keep it up, my house will be as neat as yours! (Yeah right, you know who I married to!) :)
That's so funny! Max looks at his chip after he gets cheese dip on it just like Cooper does! Only in Max's case, he throws it on the table and says, "I dohn yike it". He loves Thomas too. Thomas, Thomas, Thomas. Must be a boy thang.
