This is going to come as a surprise but, yes, it was another week full of meetings for Jake. He’s been working hard and working a lot. This week was also doing the company taxes, moving the Roth accounts around and a bunch of paperwork in general. He also took both the cars in because one was due for maintenance and the other needed a recall fix. He’s been playing video games a bit which makes me happy. And he’s been helping out so much more with the kids and the house, too and I am so happy to have him around a bit more.

A lot going on for me this week. I had a lot of work at work but felt like I was being productive and useful. I got my hair straightened and dyed again finally. I went out to a mom’s night out with David’s class and it was lovely. I also met a friend for coffee which was lovely, too. I finally bought a new pair of jeans and I am ready to clean up my closet of all the excess. This next week will be stressful, too but hopefully less busy.

David has a short week this week because he had no school on Friday. He’s been playing hockey during PE and recess lately and enjoying that. He also seems to be making friends at a good pace and still really liking his school. We went for his first teacher’s conference on Friday and everything we heard was great. He’s adjusting well socially and doing great academically. He’s above level on almost everything but still loves to learn and looks forward to going to school every day. I couldn’t ask for more.

Nathaniel is enjoying school very much, too. On days when he’s home, he’s bored more easily than he used to be and misses David a lot. He’s getting better and better at numbers and can count from one to ten (except six and seven which he can’t pronounce and likes to skip over.) He is still super-cute and mischievous. He loves sitting right next to me and leaning in to see what I am doing on the computer and eating peanuts with me.
Here are some of my favorite captured moments from this week:
I love how Nathaniel loves to sit on David:
I got to have a kiss during Sunday’s shoot:
Nathaniel really likes using this step lately. I think he likes being as tall as David:
He also sits on it to play.
He’s really into numbers a lot lately so this toy’s getting a lot of use:
And here’s my handsome boy:
Nathaniel loves this UFO, too especially cause it has a piece that lights up:
I love this shot of David, too:
The boys playing together (drawing together) while I was in a video conference meeting:
And one more from today’s tickle-time.
The boys are sleeping now and Jake and I are just winding down and relaxing. Here’s to another wonderful weekend.

I love the photo you chose for your weekly page, all of you smiling and having fun. Your boys are getting so big. Glad the week was a busy but good one.
