short update

I keep starting posts about our busy last week and weekend - but just can't get them done!  So I think I might just start fresh- last week was full of Kathryn centered activities- I might be over scheduling her a bit but I realize in a couple of months with new baby and the weather we'll be home a lot.  So out and about for now.

Friday night we celebrated Kathryn's 20 month birthday at Snuffy's in Edina.

It was the perfect setting for us- other children there to entertain her so we can enjoy our meal!  I'm working on a list of the words she says now.  Everyday it's something new!  She's crazy about reading books and will watch our mouth as we pronounce new words.  We play a lot of Eye/I Spy while we read- the best is when she finds something I missed.  She's obsessed with fish and babies! Thanks to Jessi we learned that teacher's get a FREE membership to the Underwater World at MOA and a very discounted family membership- so we plan to do that in the next week or so. 

On Saturday K and T went to the Children's Book Festival- unfortunately the weather was poor so they didn't see much music (Lisa Loeb, Justin Roberts, and They Might Be Giants were the big acts) while I did some wedding photography stuff with Erin.  Sunday was great for me- I did a huge grocery trip at Target- out cupboards are pack jammed- other then produce/farmer's market goods we should be without shopping for awhile. I know it'd probably be cheaper at Cub, but I was in a Target mood.  

Then Tommy watched the big game and I read the paper. I'm sorta into Sunday afternoon football- it was very quiet and relaxing afternoon- probably because it was rainy so we could just hunker down at home.

Yesterday the neighbor's gas was turned off and apparently to do this they dig up the yard and bring along a huge body guard- with a gun and handcuffs.  It was very exciting- my picture's blurry from the window screen.  I might live in Murderapolis but we don't see many guns on our street.

I also Halloween decorated- I just need a hay bale for outside and we're done!  Have a great Tuesday!
