Nothing much to report except the kids are still being sooooo good! Kira is really into being good for Santa. Anytime she starts to do something that maybe she shouldn't or she doesn't do something that I ask her to do she gets this look of concentration on her face and immediately changes her behavior and tells me to tell Santa that she's a good girl. I really am enjoying her enthusiasm and excitement about Santa Claus it adds so much to our days.
We haven't done too much the last couple of days. Yesterday Alyssa, Kyah and Isaac came over for our weekly play date. I really love it. I think I get as excited as Kira does for our play date. I love my weekly talks with Alyssa. It's so comforting to have a friend who knows you so well and is so easy to talk to. Last night Robin brought me over Zupas (which was totally delicious) and then she picked up Charlotte so we could all watch The Office together. It was fun to have company in the evening but a little bittersweet not knowing when we'll get a new episode of The Office to watch. (Dang writer's strike.)
Today was pretty low key the big event being a trip to Albertson's. Kira was so tired during dinner and kept telling me that she wanted to go to bed so the kids ended up going to sleep at 6:20. So I have had a nice long evening to myself doing a lot of sewing and TV. I don't like the book I checked out of the library (The Last Summer (of you and me)) and we keep our books in JOshy's room so I'm a little sad I don't have a good book to read tonight, I guess I can start my Christmas book it just seems a little too early.

Ah Thanks for adding me to the sidebar! My parents are on a mission in Costa Rica, It's their second one, they went to Mozambique, S. Africa before this one.
I can't wait to use the Santa guilt trip on Ike, jk, glad she's excited for Santa.
sounds like you are still holding up well; and now lou gets home today! It flew by...for me at least!
Santa is good bribery too. Bummer that you aren't liking that book as well. I'd totally start the Christmas one and then start another one afterward! There are several at Deseret that I want to read, but i have a hard time spending 16 bucks on a book when I can get them from the library or something. I think the church should start a library with good books...(:
I had lots of fun coming over to watch the Office and I am disappointed that it's the last one for who knows how long. Stupid writers. Stupid producers. I just want my TV. I hope you had a good weekend!
i am jealous about the Offic watching... Tell me more about the writer's strike- I am so out of it! (Will reply to your email soon!)
I love the impending arrival of Santa. I get so much mileage out of that one. Good Santa inspired behavior is probably one of my favorite parts of Christmas.
