Paul left yesterday morning for a conference in Missouri so the kids and I have been hitting some of our favorite restaurants that Paul doesn't care for. We used to have a standing date night on Wednesday for one of two salad places when he taught night classes, but he hasn't been teaching for the last year so last night we went to Sweet Tomatoes and tonight we went to the Spaghetti Factory and then to the University of Utah gymnastics meet. Nathan fell asleep after the first rotation. I took them home at the end of the third rotation to miss the traffic and crowds. I certainly hope they sleep better tonight than they did last night. I don't let them sleep together unless it's a weekend because Andrew will keep Nathan up to late and he has school. Since they were out today for parent teacher conference I let them sleep together last night. Andrew ended up waking up at 2:30 to read and that woke Nathan up. Then Nathan ended up getting up around five I'm guessing. I thought it was later but I must have been really asleep when I looked at the clock because I knew they eventually started a movie and I got up just after 6:00 to tell them to turn it down. Anyway, they were both a little mad at me because I told them they couldn't sleep together tonight and it is a weekend. But by the time I got home I had to carry them both to bed and they didn't bother to keep arguing.
On a better point, it's always good to hear your kids teacher gush praise. Nathan is excelling at math, spelling, and reading at a solid second grade level, and is usually able to read entry level third grade books and he's in first grade. She said she can't wait to be Andrews teacher. Hopefully she'll still think that if she is.
We have another birthday in our family - Happy Birthday Mica!
