I finally did it!!!

I'm so excited! (insert Pointer Sisters song) I finally named my new blog! Yes, after days of searching "how to name your blog" and reading through lists of descriptive words a name popped into my head. It is nothing fancy so don't expect too much. After all, it is ME who is naming this blog. One thing I know for sure is that I am glad I won't be having anymore children. The poor thing probably wouldn't receive a name until it was 42!! Giving something a permanent name is a huge feat for me. You have to wait until Monday when I launch the new blog to see what the name is.

The boys were over last night for dinner and homework. Energy told us that he does not want to play football next year. We had already wondered ourselves if he was going to play next year or not. Like I stated in the Meet My Family section of this blog Energy likes to play sports for the mere fact of it is something to do. He doesn't want to put forth the time and dedication to the sport in order to become the best he can be. That is why he was clueless at this weeks game because he didn't study his playbook. We are a little disappointed but will respect his decision. He does still want to go out for basketball but my husband fears the same thing is going to come into play. Energy attended basketball camp this summer and my husband said he did not go all out in camp like he should have. And making the basketball team is going to be alot harder than making the football team because there are not as many positions. So we will see. I want to find something we can push Energy to really put forth all his efforts in. He is ok skating by with whatever is enough to keep him afloat. I want to help make him stronger than that.

Kayk came home from school in a really bad mood and stayed that way for about 3 hours. I am sure it has to do with some smelly boy. She wouldn't tell me what was wrong which is out of the ordinary for her since she usually tells me everything. Her response was that she didn't need to bother me with things that her friends could help her with. Ouch! I think we are at that bridge where her friends are way more important to her than I am. I don't like it one bit! Then at around 7:00 someone else took over her body and she was happy go lucky, dancing around, smiling and having a great time with the entire family. Gotta love those teen hormones and mood swings!

Master G was incredibly chatty last night. After dinner he and I sat at the kitchen table and talked for a long time. I had asked him how things had been going at school and he explained the whole missing math book situation to me (as if I didn't know about it). Then he told me about how he had to go sit in the safe seat two days ago. Apparently he was daydreaming in class so the teacher made him go sit in the safe seat. He then came back with an incredibly mature response as to why he shouldn't be daydreaming in class and how he should be paying attention. I was so proud!! I see Master G going far in life. He has a great head on his shoulders and really thinks things through. He then wanted to talk to me about how we were going to decorate for Halloween and Christmas and what kind of special events we were going to be doing between now and the end of the year. And about his birthday coming up in a few weeks! Awwww! He is a planner just like me!!!!
