On Monday, Kaiton and I spent the day cleaning and running errands. After school, I taught a piano lesson and then I got to take Brooklen to hockey practice while Rob took Zaya, Hurley, and Kaiton to Zaya's dance class. It was really fun for me to get to take Brooklen to hockey alone. I feel like I am always with the girls, which is great, but it is nice to have some alone time to support Brooklen too.
On Tuesday, we picked the kids up from school and then took Zaya to gymnastics. Hurley had a bit of a breakdown before her gymnastics class. I'm not sure if she is tired, sick (she has allergies), or if she is getting a bit burnt out. I ended up leaving mutual early to go watch and support her at gymnastics because I knew she was having a tough time. Luckily, she had a pretty good day. Thursday, she was also a bit hesitant and I was worried about her. I ended up watching her for a couple of hours. I think her coaches saw that she needed a "light" day. They had a crazy hair day and at the end they awarded her the weekly trophy (for the third time since the summer started). She came home so happy! I will be much more aware of preventing burn-out for her going forward. I also got some new allergy meds for her; I definitely think we need to get that under control!
On Friday, Kaiton and I met Natalie Hill at a new crepe restaurant for lunch. I wanted to take Natalie out to lunch for her birthday. It was so fun. We spent over an hour and a half just talking. I don't have many close friends here in Midland, so it is so nice to be reminded that I do have a few people that I really love and can be "real" with. On Friday night, it was raining, so we made pizza and then we watched a really cute movie, "Descendants."
On Saturday, we went to Brooklen's hockey game in the morning and then we went over to the Festifall downtown. The kids had a good time playing fall games and doing some crafts.
