November

November flew by so fast. I wish I had pictures to document, I do not. For poor Sam the whole first of the month was spent with her really sick. The poor girl missed 2 1/2 weeks of school. We are not sure what she had, I did not have her tested for H1N1 I figured if she had it that there was nothing we could do. The problem was at the end of her sickness she came down with pneumonia . I think just because her immune system was tuckered out and could not fight anymore. She spent Thanksgiving coughing her lungs up.
Good ole Lexi, had an interesting month with her, Lexi is really really independent, for those who are not around enough to see. Because of this interesting feature she will not let me help her with homework, she demands that I stay away while she "reads" me a book. I unfortunately have been falling for this. I went to Parent Teacher conferences where I was very sad to find out that she was not even at a KINDERGARTEN level for anything(she is in 1st grade) Her teacher who is so sweet and I feel so lucky to have was very concerned. I was blindsided because she seemed to be doing awesome when she would read out loud for me. SO after talking to her teacher I was determined to sit right next to her for now on and get her back on track. It was a rough first week, she does not like "help", but now she is doing so much better. She is still really behind her class but I do not doubt that she will be caught up soon. I learned my lesson now with her!
Josh is growing growing, he is head first in to the 2's, but we still love him! The poor boy broke his arm Wednesday. I want to get a picture of his cast and then I will post more of the story. I just feel so bad for him having that huge horrible cast on.

Funny story I want to remember

Sam and Lexi were supposed to perform at a football half time one evening, Steve took them to their last dance practice where he was supposed to have gotten their t-shirts for that night. As I was getting the girls ready I realized I could not find their shirts and Steve was still at work. I sent him a quick message over the computer, I was confused when he sent me a message back saying, " Well Lexi did have a stomach ache this morning."
So confused I read over what I had sent him, i could not stop laughing at what I saw. I WANTED TO SAY, "Did the girls get the shirts last night?" To keel everything clean I will just say that I forgot to put the r in my "shirt". Poor Steve was so confused why I was asking him that and why I was being so vulgar.

That is really funny. It would have been funnier if we didn't all know that you really do talk like that!

I was going to tell you that Josey was very similar to Lexi in the independent thing. She was SOOOO unteachable it seemed between the ages of 5 and 6. I could not even hint at suggesting something that she needed to correct on her homework or ANYTHING! She would be so offended and annoyed that I was trying to help her. Just so you know, she has grown out of it. So hopefully Lexi will as well! It is so frustrating!

Oh no you poor girl!!!! When one kid is sick, you just try so hard to make everything better.. My 2 year old is independent to .. I have a feeling she will be beating up all the boys when she heads to school..
Oh your text message to your hubby made me laugh.. So funny.. I do that all the time, or send messages to the wrong people.. Hope your December is Healthy, Happy, Fun & Relaxing!!!
