back in the saddle


We are back in school here. I started 1st grade with Harrison last Monday to be exact. That sounds funny doesn't it? The biggest problem with school now is that we are still doing swim lessons too, and those really cut up our day. I expect next week to go much smoother. So far, so good unless you count yesterday when he just refused to finish his math. It is still SO HOT here. Thankfully our AC is fixed or this post would have an entirely different tone to it.

I am feeling good, finally! Our ultrasound is at the end of the month. I am still on the fence about having the boys find out. I think we will just wait and see. If one more person asks me if we are trying for a girl, I may go postal. No, we did not try for a girl, I would be overjoyed with another boy. There, I said it. After all, we've got 2 pretty super fantastic boys already, I'd be crazy to not want another one. And no, that doesn't mean I've got anything against girls at all, I'd take one of those too. :)

Charlie starts preschool on the 11th of Sept. He seems excited some days, and could really care less on others. I feel really good about not having him start K this year. He is doing as well as, if not better than Harrison in swimming. Can you believe it? Yay for swim lessons!

Robert has been very busy. He's got freelance work on top of his "day job", so he has been coming home and going straight to work in his office.

Is anyone watching Big Love? Only 2 more episodes left. Man, I love this show. I love Bill Paxton too.

Back to school already! I know I'm going back to uni, but it doesn't have quite the same feeling of back to school. I mean, I don't get to shop for markers or anything!

oh, I love the start of school.
I'm glad you are feeling better.
and I am SOOO with you on another boy being a joy (or a girl as you said)... after all...it's just more loving in the house.

So glad your air is back!!
And I know what you mean about well meaning people who say silly things!
When we found out we were having a girl I'd here "oh I bet you are done now that you have a boy and a girl"
What?!!!

People ask us if we're going for the boy all the time. I kindly reply, "We did. Her name is Lauren." hee-hee :) Do you remember that line from Madagascar- Smile and nod, smile and nod...
