Tennis was fun this morning. The girls loved it. W wasn't too into it and kept coming out of the gate by me. He was more interested in playing with the other kids than waiting his turn with the racket. I'm kind of glad about that since they were adamant that these kids cannot be younger than 5 and everyone must provide a birth certificate next time. So, W can't go anymore. He really did have more fun riding his scooter, playing catch with another boy his age, and poking a dead squirrel with a stick. K saw a girl she knows from school there and hung with her. It turns out they are both in the same class next year. She seemed very nice and sweet and I pray that K can let go of her nasty "queen bees and wannabes" friends from 6th grade and maybe pal around with this girl from now on.

W played some learning games on Starfall.com and read me some of the stories on there. He gets the whole "first, next, last" concept with pictures and read more words aloud with silent e. J had dance again today. K and I met B at the eye doctor which allowed me to drop W off with him while K and I drove back to pick up J and go to a dance company meeting. After that, we drove to play rehearsal which ended at 8:30. I picked up some McDonald's (hate that! but we were starving) and we got home by 9. Tomorrow we're off to the mall for some serious shopping!

Hope you all have fun shopping today and find some goodies. It's been a while since I've shopped with my daughter - she's 'all grown-up' now. ....Or at least she thinks she is. ;)

I have a question for you (if you see this post and don't mind me asking). My daughter and two of her friends, all in their late 20's, are going to NYC for the first time. They will only be in the city for three days, but do you have any suggestions as to hotels that are affordable? ....OK, I hear you laughing about the affordable part (hehehe), but if you have any recommendations to throw out, I'd appreciate it.

Actually, there are so many hotels in NYC with all different prices at different times of the year. The best thing to do would be to check priceline.com or orbitz.com or expedia.com or something like that for the best deals.

Thanks so much for your comment! We did have a great time shopping today - and of course I spent way too much money.
