What We've Been Up To

Life has been busy around the Wennerstrom home.  We have preschool, speech, ballet, music class, soccer...and working!  So on weekends, we have been trying to relax a little and have quality family time.

A few weekends ago, the girls and I got home from "work" (I call my babysitting "work" because it's work...but in a fun way) and Rob had packed a car and told us we were heading to the cabin.  It was a great surprise...and a relaxing weekend!

Off to the cabin!

Our silly character!

 

Not a bad way to spend a February afternoon!!!!

And to top off the weekend....that Sunday I met my sisters and mom for dinner and a play!  It's sort of become a "tradition" for the girls to have a night out!!!!!  I love it...and hope that I pass my family's love of theater down to my girls!!!

Such a fun night!!!!  And thanks to my family for my bday gift...my new purse.  I LOVE it!!!!!

Last week was fairly uneventful.  I have been working a lot for Kendall College (I supervise Student Teachers and really LOVE this job) and Rob's Aunt Tina has been a LIFE SAVER!  She has been watching the kids on and off so I can work.  We are so grateful she watches the kids...and the kids LOVE going there.  They always do something fun...like this adorable Valentine's Day Craft:

Last Thursday Abigail was complaining of an earache.  By Thursday night she had a fever, so we took her to the doctor on Friday.  She had a double ear infection...but is doing much better now!

Last weekend we had a working day at my grandma's condo.  My grandma's condo has been on the market for over 3 years now!!!  It's a great condo, but we decided to update it a little.  The "men" worked hard at replacing all the faucets (plumbing) and light fixtures.  The "women" did some staining of trim...and A LOT of keeping the kids busy!  We ended the night with a great dinner with the WHOLE family to celebrate my sister Katie, who just got her Master's from Northwestern!  She's officially the smartest MUSKOVICH!  Congrats Kate, we are so proud of you!!!!!

We had a rough start to this week with a flat tire on the way to school...but THANK YOU so much to Nana and Papa who happened to be home and were a HUGE help.  Papa got the spare on and Nana watched the kids so I could get the tire changed.  Thank you so much!!!!  And we even got the tire changed with enough time to make it to our dentist appointment!!!!

Caitlin's dentist appointment started off having "disaster" written all over it.  The dentist said "Caitlin, open your mouth" and Caitlin said "NO!"  Over and over...."No" or "Uh UH"!  Thankfully, we go to pediatric dentist who sees this alot.  So she decided to have her watch Abigail (who was in a different room) for a few minutes, then of course Caitlin wanted to do what Abigail was doing.  The rest of the appointment went great!

Miss Abigail went by herself for the first time!  I was sort of distracted by Caitlin so all of the sudden, she was done!  I only checked in on her once.  She did a great job and is getting so big!!!

So that's a little of what we've been up to!!!!  Ready for Spring to get here so we can be out and about all weekend!!!!!
