Princesses and Packers

Dan had the opprotunity to go to a Green Bay Packer game with his Dad at Green Bay, against the Vikings, and a play-off game.  It was quite exciting for them.   They won and Dan almost lost his voice from yelling at the game.  I asked him why all the yelling if they were winning the whole time.  He said you have to so they don't back down at all.  I guess it's a community effort when those Packers win:)

The kids and myself were flying solo at home from Friday am until Monday pm.  We were doing pretty well until Saturday morning.  Kieran and I didn't sleep well the night before, both kids were super crabby, everyone wanted to be held including the cat and dog, and when the closet door broke and I was taking it out of the room I put a whole in the wall.  Lovely.....my patience was done and I had an emotional regurtitation to get it out of my system.  My apologies to my husband who took the brunt of it:( 

Saturday night Terry and Julie came over when Svea went to bed and we watched the game.  They brought me g-free pizza too!  Then Sunday afternoon their daughters came over (Jackie and Kayla) and watched the kids for me while I snuck away for a quick work-out. That helped tremendously!  They watched the kids today too instead of them having to go to Lynda's house super early.

As you are reading this Dan is getting home and we are all very excited:) He had a great time getting his Mom and Dad all to himself and he even snuck in a visit with his Grandma and Aunties. We have Kieran's hearing test tomorrow morning.  I'm feeling hopeful as he seemed to respond a bit to my normal conversation voice.  I hope I am not just getting my hopes up!

I suppose you are wondering about the princess part?  Well, when I left the house to go work-out and came home I found this sweet girl.  In the short 40 minutes that I was a way the girls had her dressed like this and walking around saying, "I'm a princess".  I just about fainted...well not really, but I'm REALLY hoping she forgets this phrase for now:)  Ha!
