Last weekend we spent a lovely evening at the Toth house celebrating Ben's birthday. They always throw a good party. Boys also went to the homecoming football game. Champ loved it!
Champ finished up swim lessons this week. This time he qualified to make the swim team. He was so excited.
On the other hand, yesterday the kids were less than thrilled about getting flu shots. Champ did his best job ever...he was working on a game on the iPad instead of freaking out. Princess did not fair as well....she would not stop crying afterwards. Plus, she had a fever by evening time.
Yesterday we went to a local apple orchard. Princess was too busy crying and being clingy to enjoy herself. However, Champ loved the pony ride, train ride, maze, slide, hiking, etc. We brought a picnic lunch to eat by the pond. Princess loosened up and had fun on the wagon ride to the pumpkin patch with the rest of the family. We picked out an eight pound pumpkin.
Daddy also took Champ to Chuckie Cheese to celebrate good behavior at school. Boys played lots of games together.

Updates
The Champ's new school is going great. He is very successful there. Princess seems to be doing well at her new day care. Both kids are very happy when I pick them up at the end of the day. We are glad that we switched.
We took a trip to Kansas recently. We pulled the Champ out of school for two days, and we took off 2 days from work ourselves. First, we drove to St. Louis. We spent the night in the Ramada Plaza. In the morning, we enjoyed a breakfast in the hotel. Then we visited the science center. We drove to Independence, Kansas. We woke up on Saturday and had breakfast in the motel. The kids enjoyed the pool. We ate lunch at a local pizza place with hubby's parents, sister, and brother-in-law. The swimming wore out Princess so much that she slept through Tina's wedding, which was probably a good thing. There was a cake and punch reception at the church following the wedding. We went back to the motel to change into casual clothes. Then we traveled to the park for the casual reception. There were dollar putt putt games that the boys enjoyed. The girls got a head start to the free zoo. Everyone enjoyed quarter train rides. There was tons of play equipment to explore. We ate a wonderful bbq dinner too. On Sunday, we traveled to Kansas City to go to the Children's Museum. The museum was nothing compared to the one we usually go to, but the kids had a great time. We continued our journey by going to Jefferson City, MO. We stayed with daddy's old roommate. On Monday, we headed to St. Louis, where we enjoyed the zoo. There was so much to do there. The kids loved seeing the animals. Champ is at the point where he liked having me go over the information on the sign about each animal with him. We spent the night in Illinois. We ate breakfast in the motel and the kids enjoyed the pool. Then it was time to travel home and tackle the mountain of laundry.
Champ tried out for a swim team. He didn't make it, but he now has it as a goal as he starts swim lessons this upcoming week.
