It's Friday!!!

And...I have a housefull of girls! Chrystel had some foot surgery this morning so Caitlyn & Alexis spent the night last night. And, although I was crazy, they all slept in the same room!!! We only had to go up there twice...which I figured for an almost-5, almost-4 & 3 year old, that was pretty good.

All morning they've pretty much been hibernating in Hallie's room. Wouldn't you, she has a CD player...Barbies...magnet dolls...more barbies...playdough....dress up stuff....it's kid heaven up there!!!

Tonight, I spearheaded a first, of many I hope, Mommy's Night Out. I just feel like my friends and I are all so busy with our families, that we don't really have time to be just friends. So, a few weeks ago I sent out an email to get the ball rolling. Tonight we're meeting for dinner at Red Robin and then we are going to see Bride Wars. We'll see how the movie is. I've heard mixed reviews. I'm hoping that every couple months we can escape and go do something...just the girls.

My math class magically got easier this week. I'm not sure if the material got easier or if my brain finally caught on! Either way...easier is good.

Tomorrow we are taking Hallie and the girls to see Madagascar at the kid theater. The kid theater...well that's what I told Hallie Gateway is...where tickets are only $2. I refuse to pay $10 for her to see a movie. She was begging us to take her to see Madagascar when it was in the theater, and now it's at Gateway we're hauling her to it. We'll see how well this goes...and how much they talk through it...or how many times we make bathroom runs! Either way...she'll be thrilled to go see a movie!
