Going Through Life One Blog Post at a Time
Recently, my Dad got an iPad, which made his Kindle Keyboard unnecessary. I mentioned that I would love to have a Kindle for the kids and, today, Grandma Marilyn delivered it to us. Andy and I got it registered to my Amazon.com account and set up for the kids. It is now known as “Laura’s and John’s Kindle” on my Amazon account. Laura is especially excited and can’t wait to start using it. Thanks Grandpa Ken!
John checked out his first book, Dinosaurumpus!”, from the Ridgeway Elementary Media Center today. He was so excited to bring the book home and show us. Also, he showed us how to hold the book when carrying it. He said, “You give the book a hug!” John’s Media Center day is every Tuesday, so he will return the books next Tuesday and come home with new one(s).
Sometimes, you just have to have Chicken Nuggets and Macaroni and Cheese for dinner.
The kids earned their first weekly allowances this week. Andy set a list of chores with Laura’s list having five tasks and John’s list having four tasks. Each has three daily tasks, while Laura has two weekly tasks and John has one weekly task. If they complete everything, Laura will earn $5 per week and John will earn $2 per week. They were both quite excited to see the new chore lists on the refrigerator for the month of September and also to earn their first weekly allowance. Great job kiddos!
It was homemade pizza night in the Kassel Household and the kids got in on the dough action. Both of them had to help “smush” the dough for their pizza. I found it amazing that they managed to make a pretty well-formed pizza with only minimal help from me.
Do you know where your children are?!? Yep, I sure do… IN BED at 7:43 pm on a Friday night. That first week of school really wore them out! Enough that John started crying because I didn’t wrap him in a towel properly.
…I’m not sure anything will.
