Well, we are officially back to school. Charlie started on Tuesday, and Harrison had his first Friday school today. Let me start off with Charlie. Last year he was a different kid. He was not so hip on the idea of preschool, and generally wasn't happy about it at all. Just look at him this year. He is beaming! What a difference a year makes. I am so comforted by this I can't even tell you. He loved everything about it this year and was excited to go back on Thursday. Yay!
Harrison has been waiting very patiently for Friday school to start up again. As you know, we started about a month and a half ago here at home. I am planning on using up some time when the baby comes, so we started early. It has been going really well. Our days are much longer but we have fallen into our little routine. Today after I pick him up, we are heading over to the park where a lot of the kids go, for lunch and play time. Tonight we have our first Boy Scout meeting at church. Whew, I'm tired just reading all that we have done this week.
And the Popeye arm you are asking about? Blech! I wish I was exaggerating but I'm not. It turns out Charlie was eerily prophetic with his drawing of daddy and his muscles. Robert has a staph infection on his forearm. Yep, a staph infection. We think that he got it from an insect bite last weekend. He did a bunch of yardwork and noticed it after that. It is hideous, and yet it looks a lot better then it did at the beginning of the week. You really don't want to know much more then what I've told you. (Trust me, it involves oozing.) He has gone to Urgent Care twice this week, has 2 prescriptions, and received a shot. This morning he is at his doctor. Lol, you know it has to be bad if he took himself to the doctor! I am happy to say that it is doing better and he feels better, now we just have to see what the doctor thinks. They should be able to tell exactly what it is, the Urgent Care doctor was able to get a culture of it earlier this week.
Thank you for your nice comments on my photo. When I look at that I see a tired, tired mommy.
So, that is what's been going on here. ;)

Your boys are so cute! I love the Thomas backpack! I'm so happy that back-to-school has gone so well. :)
Such cute photos of the boys!!
They do look happy.
And getting Mike to go to the doctor is like pulling teeth. He has to be feeling pretty bad to go.
cute photos.
Let me know how the scouts goes... so excited for you.
I hope R. feels better soon, that's no fun.
They look so excited... yay for them! :D
I hope Robert's arm gets better soon! We had a serious staph issue with 'A' earlier this spring - it can be scary! Good thing you guys caught it early.
