Monday

Last night Christine called to say that she would be at Peak Fitness to workout this morning around 9:30 am, after dropping her daughter Amabel at Deerstream (an enrichment program for homeschoolers.) We met her there. Peak Fitness is quite a value deal in my opinion. If you sign up for two years, which we did since Brian and I have been members for several years now, the price per month comes out to around $18. And for that you get up to 2 hrs. of childcare per day! Now we're not talking real quality childcare. Just a room with a bunch of toys, some coloring books/crayons, a TV, a bathroom, and one or two staff members to watch the kids. Recently, I've only been going regularly on Saturday mornings, when Brian and I both work out.

Today I lifted weights for about 45 minutes, took a shower, and the head over to Christine's with Dallas, Mia, Jaeger and Luci. Emma went with Christine to pick up sliced turkey at a deli for all of our lunch. The logic in Emma going with Christine was that Emma waited in the car with sleeping-six-month-old Kevynn while Christine ran into the deli.

We then all had turkey sandwiches at Christine's, the kids played for a while, and we headed home around 1:30 pm.

Once at home, Emma did her Explode the Code reading workbook, Mia did Click-n-Read on the computer, and Dallas read from the Reading Pathways book.

Brian was a little late in getting home for dinner, arriving around 7 pm. Monday night is "glass night" at Tyler's Tap Room in Apex. Each week one of their many, many, many draft beers is served in it's take-it-home-with-you brewery glass. We're acquiring quite a collection!
