It's been a while

So, it's been a while since I've posted anything, so I thought it was about time. Things have been busy as usual. Report cards went out this week, which means I was very busy last week getting grades done for all 220 or so of my students. That's always a fun time of the year. Oh, did that come out sacrcastically?! Oops!! I really mean....I love my job. Yeah, that's it. I've also been coaching a Lego Robotics team twice a week so that's been taking up my time as well.

Of course, all of that work is sometimes a welcome respite from home. You just never know what these two will do. For example, the other day Briana decided she would teach Adam how to do ballet. In order to do so, you of course need the right outfit. So, this is what Briana came up with.....


I'm sure the kid is probably scarred for life. I dread thinking about the therapy bills that will be in our future!! : )

Then there's always the wonderful things Adam comes up with. I was IMing Ken and Helen in Australia tonight and all of a sudden Adam walks in with a sheet of glass about a foot wide and slightly taller than he is. This seems like a situation that could go bad very quickly. Where does he even get this stuff? It's like he's attracted to all things that he shouldn't have or do. Since I took the glass from him, of course he had to go find something else to do. So, being the helpful boy that he is, he decides to clean out the fireplace for us. Normally that would be nice to have the ashes cleaned out so that we could start a fire, but when a 2 year old is doing it, it's not always as nice as one would have hoped. He actually did a pretty good job, but we won't let him know that. Don't want to give him any ideas. (Like he needs any from us, he comes up with plenty of his own.)


Between the two of them they sure do keep us on our toes. Since both my parents and Bret's put the curse on us though (you know the one - "We hope you have kids who act just like you do.") we should have known years ago that this would be coming. I can certainly say life is never boring!!!
