It was a crazier week than normal.
Subbing: I worked all week in a 2nd grade classroom. I worked one on one with a student & also got to help out the teacher & other kids in the class. The days flew by & I kept busy, which was great. I also was able to see Mr. Wagner in action & knew he was a good teacher (Jake had him), but now I am really hoping Allie gets him. He'd be great for her dramatic/needy personality...he might actually break her of the whining!!
Kid of Character: Jake was voted "Kid of Character" in his class. He got to sit in a special desk all week. Apparently, you get nominated & voted for by your classmates, he's been hoping he'd get picked & it happened!

UNI Camp: Jake went to a basketball camp sponsored by the UNI Men's Basketball team. He tried out to be a ball boy, but didn't make it. He got autographs of the team & will participate in a half time show next week.
Friends: The kids had friends over to play this week. Jake had Paul & Nick over. Allie had Olivia play. They all kept busy & I was able to get some things tackled around the house.
Basketball: Both kids had ball games over the weekend. Jake looked pretty good. If he'd actually pass the ball once in awhile, he'd look better! Allie is still learning & improving each time.
Conferences: Both kids had conferences this week. Jake got all 3's & 4's. Allie got all 3's. That was exactly what I thought they'd end up with, so I was pleased. Allie needs to work on NOT talking to her neighbor. Jake needs to re-check his work for silly errors & some of his 3's will become 4's.
Party: Jake went to his friend Carter's party at the UNI Wellness Center's gym. They played lost of games & sounds like had a fun time. His 15 best friends were there. Allie went to her friend Lauryn's house during the party. I ran to Target with NO kids!
Other things: Allie also had dance this week. Jake & I went to Soho for a snack & homework time while Allie was at class. Religion was cancelled this week due to CF playing in the Dome for HS playoffs. They won, Yea! I made cupcakes & Rice Krispie treats for the kid's Halloween parties...I was sick of black & orange by the time it was all over!
