Monday was Maddie's very first day of school ever. It was only for an hour, but she was really excited. I walked her there. She found her cubby on her own and her little mailbox. We made a glitter name tag for her. She was really excited. We took a tour of the school and almost every question the teacher asked, Maddie was the first to answer. The teacher let them play on the equipment, and when she blew her whistle, Maddie was the first to run back and get into line. I was so proud.

| Maddie on the way out to school! |
Jon came and picked us up from school after he took Silas to his doctor's appointment. His appointment was at the same time as Maddie had to be at school. We went to Albertsons and got his cake then we drove to Boise and picked up a prize I won from ThisIsBoise.com Giveaways. It was cool. I bought him lunch and we came home. He was a little "under the weather" from the night before though, so he didn't really want to do much other than watch his fights. Kira ended up being sick though. She threw up in the car. I felt bad. She just laid down in her room the majority of the day. We ended up going to Walmart to get Jon a present. He picked a griddle. It took forever to get out of there, but it was pretty fun just hanging out, even if it was in a long line. We were going to order a pizza, but by the time we got home, Chicago Connection was closed. So Jon's second choice was Taco Bell. We ate and watched Captain America II. I fell asleep during it. I guess three nights of staying up past my bedtime caught up with me. lol
Tuesday morning I woke up to take care of Silas. Jon came down a few minutes later. Jon watched some of the newer TMNT. He wasn't a fan of it. He likes the old school stuff. haha. He messed with the security lights because they are all kinds of messed up. I attempted to teach Maddie how to ride without training wheels. She did pretty good, but I could tell she was getting tired and I didn't want to push her. When we came in, Jon was just finishing up making burgers for us. He is really trying to replicate In N Out's burgers and he almost has it down. I feel like we did more for the rest of the day but I can't think of anything. Maddie had her dinner early so she could go to bed early for school the next day. Silas followed soon after. The rest of us stayed up for ribs, mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli.
Wednesday was Maddie's first full day at school. I walked her to her school and watched her get her breakfast. She did good. I followed her out to the playground. I actually lost her for a while because of the sea of kids. But when the bell rang she came right over to the line where she was supposed to. She went inside the school with her class, and I left. It was hard, but I was proud!

| Walking to school |
We had a blast at the fair. We got the girls wristbands this year so they could go on whatever they were tall enough to as many times as they wanted. They had a so much fun. Maddie was tall enough to go on some of the big rides. She and I went down the log boat and then she went on the big swings by herself. She had so much fun. Jon and I went on a few rides with the girls, but mostly it was all about them. We ate some food and drank a few drinks then called it a night at about 11. I don't think we've ever stayed so late at the fair!
Thursday, Silas woke up about 8:30. He chased the cats around the living room for a while. Jon got up and I got us some Starbucks. When I got back, Jon was already playing his new (to him) video game. After a few hours of that, we went shopping. He worked out and I went for a bike ride. We tried to teach Maddie how to ride without training wheels some more, but it is ridiculous trying to teach her. We were planning on making some chicken but our neighbor came over for a good hour, so we ended up getting the pizza that Jon wanted for his birthday for dinner instead.
Friday, Maddie had school again. She is on a block schedule so she has full days every other day. She didn't want me to walk her to school, so I let her take the bus. We did some more errands, and I met Maddie at her bus stop. I had to work that night, so I left about ten minutes after she got home. I rode my bike to work because it was a really nice day. On Fridays, we close an hour later, and the other guy closing didn't want me to ride home that late, so I told him he could take me home if he hung out for a bit and had a beer with Jon. He thought that was a pretty good deal. lol. Jon and I didn't go to bed until pretty late that night!
Saturday Jon did the yard and made a dog run. I went to work. It was a pretty boring day. Maddie was sick too. It bums me out not being able to stay home and take care of her. By the time I got off work, they were all in bed. Jon was hungry, so I went to get Jack for him. After I ordered, I realized I didn't grab my new card and my old one expired. So I had to come home. Jon went back this time. He got home and they gave him the wrong thing. He went back AGAIN and they tried to give him another wrong thing. He caught it though and said something, then they made him wait for 10 minutes in the parking lot while they made it. He was NOT happy.
Sunday, Jon had to go back to work. I had to work later that night. I let Maddie play some Skyrim after she did her homework. Kira said she was sick, but I think she just wanted soup. She took a nap, and woke up definitely sick. I felt bad. Jon came home and I had to go to work. I got off at 9, but I was behind, so I didn't get home until 9:40ish. Jon was smoking a chicken on his BBQ, but it wasn't done. It ended up taking until 11:30 to get done! But it was delicious and worth it! haha. We headed upstairs and that was the end of that week. haha
