* A typical Friday *
January 30th, 2010 at 4:08 amIt’s been a pretty calm day here on the homestead.
Sarah pretty much just stayed content with her toys today. I did keep the tv on and as long as Dora The Explorer stays on she seems pretty content to stay in the same room with the tv. Of course that is if I’m not doing something that spikes her interests.
You know you have a toddler in the house and that you’ve watched Dora one time to many when you start counting to 5 in Spanish instead of English. When Dora says, say “Back Pack” and of course you find your self shouting “Back Pack”. Yeah….I agree…I definitely need to get out more. 
The kids came home all excited because the drug dog had been at school searching through lockers. They found a pack of cigs and the person got 3 day in school suspension. Someone else got 10 day for having weed in their car. The talk of the town I guess. While all the lockers were being searched none of the kids were allowed to be in the hallways. They were all on lock down in the class rooms.
They didn’t do any body searches which if you ask me is stupid. This is a school which do not allow locks on their lockers. So my guess is if a student had drugs with them it would be on their person and no in an un locked locker. But hey, what do I know?
As per Friday tradition we ordered pizza and watched a movie together. The girls look forward to it every Friday. Tonight we watched Alvin and the ChimpMunks…by the time it was over Sarah was walking around the house shouting “ALVIN”!
When the movie was over both Liz and Emma retired to their rooms for the night and Sophie put the same movie back in and laid down to watch it for a second time. By the time the movie was over Sarah was cuddled up next to Sophie sound asleep. It was so cute!

I completely and utterly understand about the kids shows thing. I do the same! It’s insanity, but it really does show how much we love them!!!

Sounds like a nice Friday. What comes to the drug search at the school I agree with you! Body search would have been good one.

hahaha your so silly! counting in spanish instead of english! You seriously do need to go out more! ROTF No but really, isn’t it funny how no matter how silly, repetitive stuff will stick to our thoughts.
I still haven’t watched the movie, but I’m really looking forward to it!
And your absolutely right about the drug search.. a good start would have been a surprise morning dog search with the kids before they even searched the lockers.

I remember I had an Alvin and the Chipmunks 45 record when I was a kid. Think I went around doing the Alvin yell too. lol
