Weekly Glance...

Weekly Glance (Monday, October 31st - November 6th, 2011)

• Didn't have the greatest weeks - lots of not paying attention or too much rough-housing at the playground
• Alexander's teachers have implemented a new reward program where each kid has the potential to earn two stars each day (one for morning, one for afternoon) - they have to play nice, listen to their teachers, and follow the rules...basic good behavior
• Out of 8 potential stars for the week - Alexander only earned 1.  Most of the issues were rough-housing on the playground after his teachers asked him to stop.  There was one incident at lunch where he decided to act up and throw stuff around
• Sleeping was also not 100% - while he slept til a good time each morning, he woke up every night to cuddle with Mommy.  He mentioned several times that my bed was more cozy than his....
• Mommy & Alexander told Daddy that it was time for his very own big boy bed - so stay tuned!
• Monday was Halloween - he had his school parade in the morning (which one of the Dad's pointed out to me this was my last TNN parade), then that night we went trick or treating with Daddy & Mimi around our neighbors
• Thursday night, Alexander & Mommy had a date night at home - we made dinner, we read books, and got ready for bed...it was a nice relaxing night
• Friday night, Mommy & Alexander went to Target to get Addison's birthday present (Daddy went to cousin Nick's football game)
• Saturday was a busy day: soccer, lunch with Mommy, Addison's birthday party, then trick or treating with Mommy & Mimi
• Daylight savings - this was the first year he wasn't all that effected and woke up at old 6:30am time
• Sunday started off as a low-key morning but then progressed to a bad day with his behavior which resulted in timeout and staying home in the afternoon rather than going to play with Michael
