And so a week has passed...

And what a week it has been.  It was wonderful having the little ones here!  They were so busy and entertaining.  I have never slept better! Our trip back to Minneapolis was easy and the little ones were very good.  The graduation party was wonderful, lots of people there, and the quilt was a hit.  The party at Liisa's was fantastic, and I really enjoyed spending some time with my close girlfriends, one of which I hadn't seen for a number of years!  We got home late Sunday, and I have spent the past couple of days recouperating from the chaos. 

Today has been a really lazy day thus far.  Eric is on overnights this week, so I have been trying to keep things quiet and low key for him.  He got up about an hour ago, and will need to return to bed shortly.  This week is gonna be a mess for him as it's his long week, and he has an overtime shift taking up one of his two days off.  I only work on Saturday thus far (but probably Sunday too) and that is ok.  The boys are into their second week of Summer school.  Patrick is reportedly doing well--low A/high B according to him; Rei is struggling.  There are no IEP supports in summer school, but I am still hoping he at least passes math so that he gets the needed credit.

Brie got some lovely clothes at her baby shower at Liisa's, and we brought the crib home with us.  Now we need to get a mattress for it (for some reason I don't remember who I gave my good mattress to).  She spent the night here Sunday night, then immediately Monday morning took off for her boyfriend's house for a few days.  Aurora is just lounging away her break so far, between sleeping in, reading, and hanging out.  The job her and Rei applied for requires them to both be 18 and have driver's licenses to be hired.  Bummer. 

Anyhow, it is starting to storm--thunder and lightening, so I guess I will end this here.  Maybe more later, with pictures (once I get them downloaded).
