This weekend was quite enjoyable.  The weather was actually warm and other than the rain we had, we got to be outside quite a bit.  In the afternoon we (the kids and I) took a walk up to the shops a few blocks from our house.  They really  like it when we do this because there is a dollar store and they usually get to pick something to bring home.  However, we have been really working on obedience and behaving while in public.  My children are not unruly children just typical children but I still expect to behave and if we are in a situation where we must wait in line then I want them to do that quietly.  I do not want them climbing on store displays or touching items at the counter.  We have discussed that even if 1 sibbling is not doing the right thing, the others are not to follow.  They are to ignore the wrong behavior and that child will be disciplined at home.  Needless to say, we were at Staples waiting for a gal to weigh our item for shipping via UPS and 2YO started climbing on the display--the other 2 joined in.  Unfortunately we did not get to visit the dollar store.

On Friday evening we went to have pictures taken at JC Penney.  They really do a great job.  The kids were very cooperative and we had some ADORABLE pics I tell you!  The photographer just kept snapping and the kids kept on posing--it was like they were little models!  And the pictures were just darling!  Of course I can't even begin to tell you how cute they were--and of course I couldn't afford to buy every single shot, so I just had to choose the cutest ones that would fit in my budget.  That is always so disappointing to me--but there will be other photo shoots.  I wish they would sell you a CD with all the pics on it--that way I could post them for all to see or even put them as a screen saver on my computer.  Oh well,  I got the cutest ones to update our walls a bit.

It is naptime for the baby--so off I go!
