Chickens, Trampolines, Creeks, and McDOnald's

On Saturday I had a lot going on with cakes so David being the sweet husband that he is decided to take the kiddo's to his moms to play and hang out. Because of smoking and dogs the kids have not been to her house in a very very very long time. So they were very excited, the plan was they all were going but Bryson would have to stay outside the whole time.

That of course was no problem for them so they were very excited. A while back David's mom purchased some chickens and a neighbors little boy takes care of them. Well the kids were in play heaven because there were 4 kids to play with they had a trampoline, a creek, snapping turtles, rabbits, baby chicks, the chickens, a rooster, and I think that's it LOL.

The kids had a blast jumping on the trampoline, David said Bella had a very hard time on that she is just still too little she was all over the place he said. Bailee was more excited about holding the baby chick, im really glad we live in the city or other wise we would be having our own little farm. They had to jump a creek to get to the chicken coop so bryson thought that was a lot of fun and now David is convinced that Bryson is now ready to go hiking. That of course worked up a huge appetite which of course landed them at the good ole McDonald's to eat. Im glad that my kiddo's had some neat new experiences and it was nice for me to have a little time to get my cake done and of course some housework.:)

So Silly silly bands........

Silly bands I'm sure you all have seen or heard about silly bands by now! They are the latest craze!
Well of course my children are all about the silly bands. They have way too many, I mean like so many it leaves a mark on their arm if they leave them on overnight! Crazy I know that something that silly can be so popular.
Well as of yesterday those silly little things got not one but 2 of my kids in trouble at school! If I would have thought about it I would not have let them wear them but not thinking they would cause a problem I did not say anything to them about having them on.
Bryson was the first to tell me that he had gotten in trouble! He slowly told me the whole story and how his student teacher took it and threw it away. That I wasn't the happiest about at first but then thought to my self wait one less silly band. I explained to him they were to never be worn again.

So the afternoon continues on and then Bailee decides to tell me that she got in trouble with her silly bands as well. I ask her why and the reason that they BOTH Got in trouble was because they both had them in their mouth! Well Hello they both know better not so sure as to why that even happened in the first place!

Usually in the afternoon the kids know to clean out their backpacks and hang them by the door. I have to sign a sheet each day that tells about their behavior. Last night after putting the kids to bed I thought well where is Bailee's backpack, she had taken it in her room because she failed to mention to me that the teacher had marked her folder for not following directions.
Sneaky I know, but her teacher did have on there that she went from a 5 to a 4 because of not following directions and that she had earned herself back to a 5. Now this was a big deal in our house because one it was over something so SILLY that it shouldn't have been, but thankfully the teacher was understanding and gave Bailee a chance to redeem herself and all things are well now!
Lesson of the day DO NOT WEAR SILLY BANDS TO SCHOOL! ;)
