So I haven't blogged in about 2 months, I think. I keep starting posts but just never get around to finishing them. Our schedule has been crazy lately. Soccer just ended, so it has calmed down a bit, but here's what a typical week looked like after school:
Monday - homework, early dinner, then soccer practice. Finish homework if not already done, read, baths, etc.
Tuesday - homework, dinner, then Paul drops Olivia at gymnastics and gets back just in time for Kayley's piano lesson (her teacher comes to our house. How cool is that??!). Meanwhile, I get home, eat, and then pick Olivia up. Read and bedtime.
Wednesday - homework, then violin for Olivia. Kayley goes along and just plays on the iPad or whatever. Paul takes them to Subway or somewhere for dinner. Meanwhile, I get home and eat my own dinner. Then the normal homework/read/baths whatever while I clean up, make lunches, fold laundry, etc. (that part is every night, or course, not just Wednesday!). Oh, and once a month on Wednesdays they also have Girl Scouts.
Thursday - usually nothing, but for a few weeks there Kayley had a dentist appointment every Thursday and once on a Friday, due to a bike accident she had back in August (can't remember if I ever blogged about that).
Friday - nothing other than the occasional event at school or whatever.
And then we've had soccer games every Saturday morning for the last 8 or 10 weeks, mostly at 9:00 AM and a few were 45 minutes away which meant we had to leave at 8:00, because they had to be there at 8:45. They had their last game last Saturday, so I will be glad to have my Saturday mornings back!

For Halloween Kayley was Darth Vader and Olivia was a Zombie Cheerleader.
Kayley wouldn't let me get a picture but her friend's mom got one of the whole group so I stole it from her Facebook page.
We did our usual thing where Paul takes them around our loop while I stay home and hand out candy, then we leave the bowl of candy on the porch and trick-or-treat our way down to our friends' house and have a little party. It was a little less of one this year since it was a Monday, but still fun.
And now it's almost Thanksgiving!
