Monday November 5th

This weekend was a little busy.

Saturday we went out and were going to do some Christmas shopping, but didn't have time. We looked for dining room tables and by the time we were done looking, Vallerie was ready to go home. She was at her gmas house and her cousins had to leave, so after they left she was not happy.

Sunday we stayed home and cleaned a little bit. We're all sick with colds,so it was a slow clean. I went to the store and got some liquids (juice, milk, tea) and I popped over to the cereal isle. Guess what I found... ALPHABITS! I was super happy. I bought them of course. When I got home Vallerie saw them and said "Super Why", Yes, they had the Super Why characters on the box. She's so smart.

I also made apple crisp for the first time. We had some apples that needed to be eaten, so I made the crisp. It was really easy, and Eddie and I thought it was great. Vallerie just ate the apples.
I think that we will go out and try to do some more shopping today, but who knows. I think we're going to get the 7yr olds easy bake ovens. I was telling Eddie that I remember getting his sister an easy bake oven when she was 8. It was a little weird to think that we have been together that long and I knew his sister when she was as old as her step daughter.

I was thinking about toys for Vallerie. She really likes Umizoomi. They have some toys, so I think we might get those for her.
