Busy Busy Busy

We have been busy little bee's the last week or so. It started last Thursday when I took the boys to "Lunch with Monte" at the Chick Fil A in our mall. He is a Christian singer that does about an hour and a half of songs for kids while they eat their lunch. His website is www.musicwithmonte.com if you want to check him out. It's pretty fun. The boys love it and all the kids dance and act crazy. To our surprise, my friend Heather and her husband and daughter Caroline showed up and that just made it that much better.

Friday, I took the kids to my parents house to spend time with them for a while and I ran off to do grocery shopping and other odds and ends. I got home and started getting ready for Alex, Holly and Tyler to come over for dinner. We hadn't seen them since way before Christmas and we really enjoyed our time together.

Sunday we went to church and Heather and John have been looking for a new church to go to. She had asked about where we were going and decided to meet us. The big thing about this day, is that Kannon actually wanted to go in his class!!! I was thrilled. Magnum cried when I dropped them off and Kannon went right in and started playing. I knew that Magnum would calm down quickly so I hurried off. I was so proud of Kannon. He never wants to do anything like that. He is very shy and doesn't like to leave me.

The service was great and when I went to pick the kids up, Kannon was crying and Magnum was playing. Total role reversal. I kind of expected it, but was praying that Kannon really l iked it. The teacher said that he actually did really well until the end and that's when he got a little upset. That is fine...we are going to do it again next week and he will eventually get used to it. The childrens programs are really good at church and I want them to start getting involved and comfortable and hopefully make some friends.

As I was waiting for Heather and John to pick up their girls I saw a girl that I went to high school with and she invited me to MOPS (Mothers Of Preschoolers). I've been wanting to go for a while, but was always nervous about how Kannon would handle it. I think God gave me a sign this week between Kannon doing well and Heather asking me to come. Next Monday...I'm going to MOPS and I can't wait to start getting connected to people at church.

After church we decided to go out to lunch. I forgot to mention that my Jon couldn't go because we were expecting snow and he had to get his trucks set up for the big event. So I took the kids to lunch with Heather's family. The boys were pretty good considering. I think that Heather and John enjoyed church and I hope that they want to come again.

Whewww....we had a busy weekend!
