Well things have been moving around here since school started back. Just getting back into the routine has been an adjustment. I loved having my children around me all summer. I loved the carefree days of swimming and playing with no schedule or things to do. But all too soon summer is almost over and we are back in school, back to homework and study sessions. Back to packing lunches and trying to get out the door on time and calmly. Some mornings have been better than others.
Madi. has a new teacher. She just moved here from Georgia a few weeks ago and seems very nice. She is organized and makes them toe the line. Both of which Madi needs. We are really stressing and working with her about being more responsible this year. She has started back with company. Today was day 1 of learning all new dances for this year. It is good to have familiar things back.
Brennon has the same teacher he had in 3rd grade. It is his favorite teacher. So he is having a ball. For the past 2 weeks during PE the 5 and 6 grade class has gone to the aquatic center to swim for 2 hours. How fun is that!
They are out of school Friday and Monday for labor day. I am looking forward to a long weekend with them. Then Wednesday the 9th we are sneaking away to the beach after lunch till Sunday! I can't wait to play on the beach with my babies.
Speaking of babies. I got to keep Noah the other night while Jami and Blake did some shopping. I met them in town and brought him back to our house. Oh, it was so much fun. Madi sat and held him and loved on him. Braiden called him bebe, he sounded so cute. He held him and would kiss his head. He pointed and named all his body parts. He loved his toes and his eyes. he even helped give him a nurse- that's what he called his bottle and his paci. He is the prettiest baby. I love his hair. It reminds me of Lil B when he was little. Patrick and I fought over who was going to hold him next. Thank you Jami and Blake we had a great time. Any time you need a break, just let me know. We love him so much, he was perfect!
Brennon started flag football this year. It is fun, no pressure just clean, safe! play. Brennon won his first game 30 to 12. We ate lunch with our neighbors and let the boys sit together and play. Braiden just ran from Tyler, Tristen, and Brennon. It was sweet to watch him want to be BIG like them.
Ecclesiastes 3
A Time for Everything
1 There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:
Right now our season is full of school, dance, football and family. God is so good and continues to amaze me with his mercies and blessings.
Have a wonderful school year.
