band hero's
We got band hero last weekend. Terra's in love with it, she's really good on the drums. I'm terrible with the drums. I can't figure out how to use my hands on the drum and cymbals and by foot on the bass drum at the same time.
Movie Weekend
Madeline went to camp with girl scouts this last weekend. Terra stayed home. She gave Madeline a giant hug when Madeline came back home Sunday evening, "Madeline! Don't ever leave again!"
We went to see the movie "How to train your dragon." Terra invited a couple friends to go (Madeline went to see it Friday night with another friend of hers). Jack was restless. He was moving throughout the picture, but when a spot showed that caught his interest he would stop his wandering and look up at the screen. Then he caught the bucket of popcorn of the gentleman in front of us. Jack reached over, Mom stopped him. "Jack, sshh. Watch the movie. Sorry, sir."
Jack saw his moment later. He reached for the bucket, lifted it off the seat in front of him, then over the seat, and SPLASH. The popcorn landed everywhere. I had to go get another bucket of popcorn for the guy, and Mom's purse was filled with it.
Jack is standing in front of me now with his shirt off, holding a book. "Read book, Daddy."
"No, Jack, we've read that book three times already."
I don't think it's wrong to say, "No," even if it's a book. Whoever bought him the "Cars" (the movie) books for Christmas is EVIL. I've read those books a million time, and that was last Saturday.

Sick, Sick, Sick
zomg, everyone has been sick this Winter, it's been awful.
Misty and I were both sick, terribly sick, in the middle of January. Terra was sick the end of January, went to the doctor's office, and ended up missing school. Madeline wasn't feeling well that same weekend and had strep throat the next week. She was throwing up and missed almost a week of school. I was away in San Diego on a business trip, where I thought I was going to enjoy the warm client, away from a sick family, and I got sick -- again. Misty had almost the same thing I had, so I'm guessing we both got it from Terra. Then last week, Misty came up with a cold, aching sinus-like infection, and I fought through the same thing a few days later.
No more sick. This weekend has been nice and we spent as much as we could outside. I could still feel the sun on my face yesterday evening, I pushed Jack in a swing on a treeless school playground for almost an hour. That child loves the swing.
