DINOSAURS
I helped Jake's class with their dinosaur unit last week. I helped out in the classroom constructing a large dinosaur with a small group. The kids had to be paleontologists & piece the paper bones together in the correct way. I was shocked at how much those kids know! I was also able to go to the UNI museum to dinosaur school with the kids.
Me, Katia, Cassandra, Jake & Austin with our dinosaur.

DAISY MEETING
Allie had a Daisy meeting this week. She had a great time being with her friends and playing games. I somehow got roped in to co-leading her troop. I vowed that leading Jake's Cub Scout den was as much Scout leading as I would do...how do you say no though??
The girls are hiding their eyes for a game we were playing.

TEETH, BASKETBALL, MOVIE & MORE
Jake lost 2 teeth in 2 days this week. Friday morning, Scott pulled one out & Saturday morning, Jake pulled one out. The tooth fairy made visit number 6 & 7 without any forgetting unlike visit 5!

Jake had basketball on Saturday morning. He's doing really well this year. He is a bit of a ball hog & we've discussed that! He didn't think he was hogging, he just wanted a shot!

Scott & I got a sitter last night & went to dinner at Hu Hot, then got to see a movie that wasn't rated G!! We saw Untraceable & it was really suspenseful, too graphic for me, but still good.

We are going to a Super Bowl party tonight at a friend's house. Tomorrow Allie has dance, Tuesday I help in Allie's room & Jake has his Blue & Gold Banquet for Scouts. Wednesday brings Religion & Thursday is Godfather's night for the PTA. We have company visiting the next 2 weekends, so we are keeping busy!
