Audrey couldn't wait until they were done.

They didn't turn out well. Audrey hated them :)

Marley's school Halloween party was at 2:30 today. I forgot about it and went to get her at 2:45. I felt so bad. I was the only parent not there at 2:30 for the party. I don't think she noticed though. She was tired today and fell asleep early watching Barney on TV.

Cameron is having more issues at school. Last week when I checked his grades he was still failing History. He promised he would turn in missing assignments this week. I checked his grades again last night. Not only is he missing more assignments in History, he also has 4 zeros in Science, 2 zeros in English and is missing 2 assignments in Math. I don't know what to do anymore. When school started we offered him a reward for good report cards. He had no interest, and failed History on his first report card. He has been grounded from having friends over and going to friends houses since then (4 weeks ago), and he doesn't care. Last week I took away computer and video games because he's still failing History. He still doesn't care. He blames everyone else for his bad grades. It's daddy's fault because daddy did bad in school too. It's his teachers fault for giving him too much work and not enough time to do it. It's football's fault for making him too tired (he is off the team, but still goes to practice every morning), and it's my fault for putting too much pressure on him. Don't know what to do. We went to talk to most of his teachers today after school. They all commented on how smart he is. He is just getting distracted in class, daydreams, and has no motivation. Sometimes he does his assignments and just doesn't turn them in, then looses them in his locker. Sometimes he does half of an assignment, then just never finishes it. Sometimes he never even starts assignments. We brought all of his missing assignment home tonight so he could do them. He stayed up until almost 9 (he usually goes to bed earlier because he has football practice early) and he got almost all of them done. He's usually really grumpy and pissy when he does homework, but tonight he was in a surprisingly good mood while he worked on it. Hopefully this well bring his grades up to passing, and he will continue to bring his homework home.

Going to go finish stuffing 40 party bags for Andrew and Audrey's Halloween parties tomorrow.
