It's getting cold, well cold for San Diego. Kristin had another business trip last week and the boys and I held down the fort for a few days. Thankful for our good friends Maria and Alana for helping take Jake to school when Kristin is out of town.

Another busy weekend. It was rainy Saturday so we skipped soccer and I took the boys to the indoor trampoline warehouse to burn off some of their seemingly never ending supply of energy. Saturday evening we had friends over for dinner. Sunday we went to a birthday party and then Aunt Jen, who flew in from Maryland, stopped in to see us.  

Clyde the elf has come back to stay with us until Christmas. The boys are trying to be good but jumping on the couch is so hard to resist sometimes. Hopefully Santa brings them more than coal and sticks. I've even had to "call" Santa once, who told me to pass on a warning to the boys to "be good and to listen to their parents." That is a neat trick that I'm hoping will work all year long!

Tyler and I stopped for milk and a cake-pop on his way to pre-school Friday.

Jake showing him how it's done with a flip... and yes Tyler tried to flip after he saw Jake do it.
