Highlights from the weekend

Pretty uneventful weekend... much needed after a very long work week. The downsizing process and switching teachers at our school has caused a lot of drama (guess that is what happens when you work with mostly very passionate women!) and it was just enough to make me go crazy. Sam and Payton spent a lot of time sleeping in the past few days, making up from a busy week for them as well.

Jon and I made it through our first "long run" of our half-marathon training this morning... five miles! We both felt pretty good about that, but certainly felt the distance by the end of the run.

Other news in our house: Payton decided to use the potty a handful of times in exchange for gum, Sam learned how to drink out of a sippy cup (his sister's princess one, nonetheless), and Zoey decided to kidnap a leftover pork chop and go tearing out of the kitchen with it in hopes that we wouldn't get her. Nice, huh?

It's my last week of work! That is what will get me through the next couple of days. Hope everyone has a great week.
