Crazy times

Megan fell asleep holding her rings - so cute!
It's been a little crazy at our house lately.  Megan got a cold Monday night and has had a hard week because of it.  She has been really stuffed up and had a fever for a couple of days.  It is funny how having a sick baby totally effects the rest of the household. 
Tony and I don't get much sleep, so that leads to us being impatience and tired...the kids see this as a weakness and seem to be naughtier then normal...probably not, but it seems like it.  Luckily Megan seems to be on the mend and I can't be happier about that.  Still has a running nose, but the fever broke and her happy personality is back.
Tony took the boys to a Bee's game on Tuesday with his dad and grandpa.  The boys like playing on the big playground that they have.  They liked seeing the game and winning prizes.  They said that they had a really good time and would like to go again with Mom and Megan.  I went to my Weight Watchers meeting while Margie watched Megan and then I went and got her after my meeting.
Speaking of Weight Watchers, I have lost about 9 pounds since starting two weeks ago.  I still really like the program, I just wish I had a buddy to go to the meetings with me.  It is not as much fun to go alone, sit alone, leave alone, get dinner alone...I need my Weight Watchers buddy back - she moved to Layton, so I don't think it's going to happen.
We find out later today at Back to School Night who Tyler's kindergarten teacher is and if he has morning or afternoon class.  He is super excited to go back to school and meet his teacher.
Josh will be tested (on Tyler's first day of school) for his speech problems.  He is getting a little better, but it still is really hard to understand what he is saying most of the time.  Poor kid, that has got to be hard to be misunderstood all the time.
Tyler and Josh played soccer again last Saturday.  Tyler and another kid from his team scored a goal together and Josh scored his first goal ever.  Not too bad to score your first goal at 2 years old during your second game playing.  He did a lot better this week.  Wanted to play more and didn't whine quite so much as the week before. 
We are getting really excited to go to Disneyland in September.  I can't believe it is so close.  We leave the Saturday after Tyler starts school.  I guess with all the school stuff happening, it seems like Disneyland is so far away, but it really isn't.  I hope that everyone stays healthy and we have a good drives there and back.  Whenever we see Margie she tells us how many more days until we leave...it is so awesome that she is so excited to take us, we really are so lucky to have such an awesome grandma to take us to the place "Where Dreams Come True."  It'll be fun, can't wait.
