Monday Update, Preparing for October Events Edition


We are preparing for birthday party #11 for Number One Son. He wants a sleepover. That is not a possibility in our little house unless we have a BACKYARD CAMPING SLEEPOVER! Which seems like a bonus for the boys but actually is just a measure to keep them from destroying our house.

Little Red went to the eye doctor — we were thinking that he would need glasses, based on some of his recent behavior, but as it turns out he just has a mild astigmatism that doesn’t need any treatment yet.

Soccer games continue every Saturday. There have been some wins and some losses — alas, there have been more losses than wins for Little Red’s team, which has a kind but inexperienced coach. Though when Little Red plays defender, he might as well be called The Eraser. He’s better off not having to run during the game (!)

The children are on Fall Break this week from Monday through Wednesday. We’re trying to keep Number One doing his work, and trying to get the children to do some chores. Funny how it’s hard to make that happen.
