Week Rundown! (01/06/13 - 01/12/13)


On Sunday, I ran the church van for morning services, then that afternoon we took naps. Evening services were good.

After work on Monday, we spent the evening working on things around the house. We helped Mysia with her homework, since the following evenings were scheduled to be busy. She had done a great job, and can do it great with some encouragement. Her math skills are great. Malachi had come home from daycare with a paper showing how good he had done with subtraction! He isn't even in kindergarten yet.

While preparing for supper, Lydia gave me a lemon to eat. I decided to share it with the kids, especially since Mydia had reportedly won 'contests' at school in eating sour candy without making faces. True to good form, Mysia ate her pieces of lemon with no problem. Malachi, on the other hand, didn't fare so well! lol. What fun!

Mysia came home on Tuesday with her school reading scores... of course, they were excellent! They placed her as 6th grade, how awesome is that? We can't be more proud. After a quick supper, we headed out to friends, the Whitchers, for "game night". Several others from church were there too, and we enjoyed visiting! We played several games and had a great time.

Wednesday was fast paced. We had a quick supper and then headed to church for evening services. We met with our pastor afterwards to talk about Malachi's baptism on Sunday... Malachi was excited.

As expected, Mysia came home Thursday with her school report card, along with her math scores. She is once again the top of her class and school! Before coming home after work, Lydia got her books for the next semester at college, and also checked out the gym. She was impressed and got in a little workout. The kids and I ate supper and watched some "Garfield & Friends" on Netflix until she came home... then it was bedtime!

Friday evening we met my family at Culver's for dinner to celebrate my mom's birthday. It was the first time for my mom to try their food. The kids ate well, and got a ice cream treat afterwards. We then headed over to my folk's house to watch a Disney movie... "Frankenweenie." Mysia and Malachi have seen scary movies, but this one was just to weird for them. Needless to say, I was up through-out the night. :(

Lydia had to go in to work on Saturday. The kids and I did some housework, went out for a walk through the neighborhood (in the cold), and had a restful afternoon. Of course, there was quite a bit of playtime as well. During the evening watched the football game on tv. The kids also played some education games on the computer before bed.
