Active
It was quite the busy active weekend. A. did not work all weekend, Saturday after the girls finished their Polish school we drove downtown and went to the Field Museum, where we checked out Tibet, New Guinea, and Egyptian exhibits and artifacts, then we made a beeline to the Shedd Aquarium and checked out the sharks, the reef exhibit, and of course the dolphin show. Interestingly, J. prefers the Field Museum, she especially lvoed a dimaond and gemstone exhibit of course since she loves collecting stones, and N. loved the aquarium, she saw her favorite unicron fish and also the turles and the dolphins. The dolphins ended up being a big hit with all three girls this time around.
I ended up travelling to the local park three times with N&J, twice we played "freeze tag"- once at the park and once in the front yard. I jogged most of the time since they were riding their bicycles so fast. Oh and Friday night we took a nice long 2 1/2 mile walk to make sure we saw all of the remaining Christmas decorations in our neighborhood.
And I did get to watch most of the Pats playoff game since A. was home, and she bought me some new sneakers, casual ones, not running ones, they are black with red, they are way cool.
I am almost done re-reading all of Raymond Carver's short stories, and I also rewatched Genesis of the Daleks late at night Friday, and Sat night A. and I watched Eddie Murphy in Boomerang, it was actually decent, we had never seen it before.
The girls were in excellent spirits since we kept them so busy all the time, they did of course do some more drawings, and read more books, they are huge fans of Curious George lately and so we have been rading a lot of those stories and alos we read "Make Way for Ducklings!" last night which N. has decided is one of her most favorite stories!!! And they remembered checking out the duckling statues in Boston Common a few weeks ago, and A. and I spoke about J. and how much we miss her! And it is hilarious how much both N&J now love dragons because of J's husband A.!!! :)
And I heard from an old friend who will come visit next Sunday to watch football playoffs so that is good. Also good is I heard back from the Doctor Who audio company in England, Big Finish, and my cds for Xmas will be arriving soon, they were supposedly shipped Friday!
All for now.
