Slow

Last week was a slow week.  It was great.  It was just what we needed to get some stuff done around this place.  It also helped that I was finally, finally feeling back to myself.  It took me three weeks to really recover from whatever sickness I got right before Christmas. 

Spencer had his first soccer game on Sunday.  It was hot, hot, hot.  As in temperature hot. Not action hot.

Monday was MLK Jr day so we were all off from work and school. 

I went to the orthodontist that morning to pick up my new retainers.  They also gave me the molds that were made from the digital scan of my teeth.  They are pretty cool.  This is exactly what my teeth look like. 

We picked up Spencer's friend Jayden that afternoon and took him with us out to lunch and to the movies.  Spencer, Jayden and I saw Jumanji.  Elliott and Michael saw Ferdinand. 

Spencer helped pay for lunch with a gift card he got for his birthday. 

Elliott wanted me to take this picture of him with a napkin on his head. 

Michael wanted a little snack while we were watching TV that night.  We're trying to clear out all of the old candy in the house, so I gave him my chocolate bunny from Easter. 

This is how I presented it to him. 

I had a rough therapy session at work on Tuesday.  I knew SLPs would appreciate it, so I took this picture, 

and posted this in my SLP group on Facebook.  I was right.  SLPs "got" it and sympathized. 

We took down the Christmas shower curtain on Wednesday. It was the last remaining Christmas item, and I almost left it up for longer because it's just so fun. 

See.  Told you it was slow around here.
