Maci has Cavities & Miss Kim's Benefit!

Cheese Ball!

Miss Alaina sent this from last week 💙💚

Thanks to long weekend vacations, this was the first full week of work and school in August.  For a full week, it actually moved pretty quickly which was greatly appreciated by all of us :)  The weather is starting to feel a bit fall like which has us all looking forward to chili, soups, football, sweaters/boots and pretty colors!  Yay!

Connor Matched a Friend at School

 Maci was so Excited to Pull Out New Fall Dresses

 Everyone Struggled Waking Up on Friday!

Friday - My schedule made me able to take the kids to and from school on Friday.  Clint and I both got out of there at a good time on Friday and cooked up a take and bake pizza from Lunds Byerlys vs ordering.  We had a yummy Taco Pizza which Maci turned her nose up to - picky eating in full swing!  We all hung out and watched some TV before I started to crash.  Clint watched some pre-season football while I watched some Dateline in bed.  We all needed some sleep!

Saturday - Maci had her dental checkup in the morning.  Clint took her while I stayed home with a coughing Connor.  I received a text that Maci has 2 cavities and they will fill them (even though they are baby teeth - I had no clue!)  I am NOT looking forward to this with M b/c she is sure to hate the dentist after this :(  Clint takes Maci this coming Thursday afternoon for the fillings - Lord help them both!  After the dentist, they brought home bagels and I did a lot of errands around the house.

Loving the Dentist for Now

In the early evening, we went to Miss Kim's benefit.  There was such a great turn out and Miss Kim was sporting her new wig which is awesome!  It looks so natural and Maci kept telling me how pretty her new hair is :)  All those kiddos were hanging on their "Miss Kimmy!"  The adults had fun checking out the silent auction items.  They made a Vikings basket with our donation which included 2 tickets to a game and 2 vikings hats.  We are waiting to hear which ones we came out on top for - we were in for a few relaxation, kids toys and yard Jenga items.  Even if we didn't win, we are excited to hear that the items went for even more which means even more financial support for dear Miss Kim!  We took off around Connor's bed time and shortly after getting him down, Clint headed to the neighbors for the big fight since our neighbor Ben bought the pay per view.  Connor kept waking up crying so I pulled him in bed with me until Clint got home around midnight and took over.

Got a Text from Christie before Miss Kim's Benefit

Lil Miss Avery is Loving our Baby Gift!!

Sunday - Thankfully Connor woke up coughing less so the neb treatments are working (it can't be sick season already!)  We have been having a slow morning here which is nice.  I have been finishing laundry, tidying the house and will take a family walk in a bit.  The Bengals pre-season game is on TV around 330p and Clint/I have a date night today at 4p.  Our monthly date night was supposed to be last night but we moved it to today since we wanted to go to Miss Kim's benefit as a family!  We aren't quite sure what we are going to do but we know we are heading to dinner at a place that will have my game on TV!!  Yay football is almost here!

Our family is so excited for the short week ahead.  We are all taking off Friday to enjoy the MN State Fair and make it an even longer Labor Day Weekend!  Beyond the fair we don't have too many plans which has us even more excited! 😍

We hope you all have a great week ahead and a wonderful Labor Day Weekend!
Lots of Love,
C, K, M & C
