A Day with Superfrog



Greg and I went to the TCU v. Wyoming game on Saturday. We had a good time watching the Frogs win again - and in much better weather than the Air Force game we went to in October. Who would have thought that Wyoming in November would be nicer than Colorado Springs in early October?

The boys and I had a pretty good week with Greg in New Mexico. They went to 2 Kung Fu classes, which was adorable. I got a card when we went Trick or Treating at Aspen Grove for 6 weeks of free Kung Fu at a place in Littleton. I called the guy and he said we'd try it out and see if they would be interested. He is really impressed with how social they are for 3 year olds. He said most of the kids that age will freak out when they walk in the door - Ryan and Luke marched right in and followed everything he did and asked. He was impressed with their coordination, he sees many 5 year olds that can't do the Kung Fu moves. I don't know if we'll make it 6 weeks - the boys may not stay that interested - but it is so cute to watch them kick and do all of the Kung Fu stuff - which is alot like dancing. Ryan, in particular, is really good - he is so dramatic, so it isn't really surprising.

We've had some bedtime issues lately. Ryan and Luke (especially Ryan) think that bedtime means party time for about an hour (which means they get one less hour of sleep at night). On Monday, after several warnings to stay in their beds, I closed the door. Luke freaked out for a few seconds and tried to open the door, but he then said to Ryan, "It's OK, Bro." When Luke started to cry again, Ryan said, "It's OK Bro, don't cry." They went back and forth for about 5 minutes and then proceeded to talk about how guys with moustaches are scary. I sat outside the room and just listened to their conversation. Within 10 minutes, they were asleep. We haven't had any more parties this week, they have gone to sleep quickly and quietly.

Nana and Grandad come in a few days and the boys are getting excited about that. We are all looking forward to a few days off.

Below is a short video of Ryan singing and playing his Xylophone book.
