RJ got a little stomach bug on Thursday night, but thankfully it was very short-lived and he was so ready to go to his friend Brayden's birthday party and sleepover on Saturday. RJ walked in the door Sunday morning and announced he had a GREAT time. Yay!
Ryleigh was uber jealous RJ got to go to a sleepover. So, as soon as I dropped RJ off, Ryleigh went to play with Aless. Not five minutes later did I get a call asking if Ryleigh could have a sleepover at Aless's. Apparently, Ryleigh batted her eyes and said she was super sad and immediately earned an invite. She also had a great time, as evidenced by the photo that was sent to me this morning.
Jip and I definitely enjoyed our quiet night. We finished setting up Elfa free-standing shelves in the kids' rooms so they each have a desk of sorts. We also rearranged their closets and the playroom closet so they make much more sense. We felt so accomplished!
RJ has school on President's Day, but Ryleigh doesn't. And, Jip doesn't have to go into the shipyard on the holiday, though I'm sure he'll still be doing work from his phone and maybe his laptop. But, he should still be able to meet RJ for lunch. The rest of the week should be back to normal, although starting Saturday, we're adding in another activity for RJ--he's doing a mini-camp at William and Mary with other gifted kids for 3 hours each weekend for the next 5 weekends. We're crossing our fingers that the hour+ drive each way will be worth it. Jip will probably take him most of the time and will enjoy either a good run or a bike ride on a nice trail in the area.
As always, pics to come. Until next time, cheers!
