milestone

Well, for some of you this may be no big deal but for me it is. I have moved the sippy cups to the second self in my cupboard. This means that they are not getting used as often. This means we are growing up. This means we are moving on. YEAH!!!! I really wondered if I would ever get to this point in my life. I have finally done it. I AM OUT OF THE BABY STAGE! And it feels good. Almost 13 years of it will do a person good. :)

1st Day of School

It is here, the first day of school. Lane was the only one in our family looking forward to this day. We have a few adjustments this year to deal with. Tanner is now in Jr. High and we have a school uniform. Some people have not been very happy with it, I support it. I was thankful that we started with a two hour day. I have to readjust every year to a quieter, emptier house during the day. It's always hard for me to get back into the swing of the school routine. This year I am not babysitting, I am working at a preschool on Tuesdays and Thursdays. It's time for MJ and P to have some structured and educational playtime.

Look out Shirley Temple!

We have discovered sponge rollers. Our first try was a disaster. It really would have been funny to see pics of it. We have studied the art and I think we've got it. MJ had no trouble posing for the camera. :)
