So my youngest has a stye. We thought it was a stye and apparently we should have looked it up on the web before we went to the doctor because after waiting for almost an hour the treatment is… hot compresses. Hmmm… probably shoulda just known that but DH was like take her in, get it looked at, so I did. Anyway, I fell asleep in the waiting room while sitting up in an uncomfortable chair. That can’t be good. I did get this awesome drawing from my daughter. She actually waited very nicely, but everyone has their limits. Luckily there were no pitchforks nearby… or as she called it… a trident. We just saw The Lightning Thief of course. Anyway, we are hot compressing away and hopefully her eye will be on the mend soon! I’ll be back tomorrow with new beads so check back!

The girls performed in the Asian Celebration today and yesterday. They got up on a stage in front of lots of strangers and did their karate. It was awesome! Good job girls! Oh and below is a picture of the Sensei doing some big kicks… it was impressive to see how hard everyone worked to put on the performance.

So as part of winter break excitement I decided we all needed to go and get manicures. The girls were very excited about it and felt quite “grown-up” during the process. It was pretty cute! Now we all have shiny, colorful nails. It made me happy that they chose crazy colors like blue and purple! Live on the edge I say…

Today the girls are off to camp where they get to cook pizza in a restaurant kitchen. They are very excited! It just happens to also be in the building where they went to preschool so I was feeling quite nostalgic as I dropped them off. I remember them being little (as they are in the photo) and racing down the halls… sigh… They were also recalling lots of memories which was very cute. As we say in our house – savor every sandwich! Time just flies! Okay, enough sappiness, off to a day of fun with my dude. I think we are going to breakfast and an early movie. Enjoy your Monday.

I’m checking gifts off my list! Woohoo!

Who thought it would be a good idea to have both girlies in braces at the same time? Ok, it was me… Going to appointments at the same time just seemed more efficient. However, two miserable girls at once was maybe not the best idea. There have been some tears over the last few days but I think that we might be through the worst of it… Whew! Poor kids, when you first get new wires (as with my oldest) or new braces (as with my youngest) there is certainly an adjustment period before you can happily eat again. They should be at leat 90% by tomorrow so they can enjoy the turkey feast. Yeah!

Sunshine in late November is always welcome! Another day that I get to walk home with my girlies and hear all about their hectic day…
