It’s official I am a soccer mom! We just hung out at home this morning for a bit. Justin helped dad water outside. I read the library books to the kiddos. Then we got ready for soccer. We decided to walk to Heritage Park. We were on the way to the park when I realized I forgot water. Dad ran back and just took the car and met us. We need to walk more often as parking was limited. The kids did great playing soccer. I was a little disappointed as the league came across as extremely unorganized. Nikki got a bit competitive and did well at making friends. They just did a bunch of drills and kicked the ball around. Justin ran so much that he got tired and wanted to stand and be goalie for a bit. I think there were a few people on the boy’s team that have played before. The kids looked so cute in their soccer cleats, shin guards, and shirts.

We played soccer with the kiddos for a bit then headed to lunch. When we got home the kids played Wii with dad for a bit and watched TV. They couldn’t agree on what to watch so Justin is upstairs watching Thomas while Nikki is downstairs watching Clifford. We scanned in a bunch of pics I got from my mom. The kids loved helping. Then we headed outside to help break open the dinosaur eggs the kids made in pre school. It was really cute and fun:

Then the kiddos played with batons with daddy. Daddy worked on the canopy part of Nicole’s bed. Nicole wanted to help him and dad found some things she could do. Justin drove his car for a bit and I did part of the hedges. Justin helped me clean up. It was so nice as this was the first time in a while during a weekend that we have been able to get some things done. It was getting cold out so we all came in. Since the kids were so helpful we let them play Wii for a while. During this time we made dinner. After dinner we ended upstairs playing and reading. It was nice as we actually got the kids to bed a little early. But we visit with them for so long that they don’t end up going to bed until later. I visited Nikki first and then fell asleep in Justin’s bed until I heard mommy from Nicole.
