The recap

-We didn't make it to the pool on a few counts- we had to go swim suit shopping because both kiddies had outgrown their suits from last year. By the time we'd wrapped that up, we went to Wendy's to grab a quick bite and ended up in the drive through for over half an hour. It was not good. Sam needed to go to bed by the time we finished eating. Addie settled for coloring, ice cream, and watching part of Little Mermaid. Hopefully we'll hit the pool this Friday when Pat has off.
-Addie had so much fun partying it up Saturday. She fell asleep en route to her party Saturday evening, but luckily woke up from her short shuteye without too much of a nap hangover. After that party, we went to my Mom's and ate sandwiches from Kneader's. Mmm, my nights don't get much better.
-I think Sam is on his way to another ear infection. Which probably means we're on our way to tubes with child #2. At least we've been through it once with child #1, but still, not fun.
-We already got our tax refund! Seriously, less than 2 weeks after they were filed, both state and federal have made their way back into our pockets. Now we need to call and get estimates to fence our backyard so I can enjoy a little less worry in my outdoor time with my kids this summer.
-My lesson went well yesterday. My favorite quote from Joseph Smith in the lesson regarding the Book of Mormon "he who reads it oftenest will like it best." So true. I want to read it oftenest and like it best.

I'm off to try to reclaim my house after the weekend (it's amazing how it can go from clean to chaos in such a short time) and call the ped to see when I can bring Sam in. I also need to go buy The Book Thief so I can review it again before book club tomorrow night at my house. My memory is stellar these days. Monday, Monday.
