Well let me start with the one man in my life who is my rock. This guy is absolutely the best. Considering we have known each other for 21 years and now married 9 years(today is our anniversary) he just knows me. He knows the times to come in for a huge hug to make my day better or give me my space when I need it. I don't even need to mention how awesome of a father he is to our kids. It seems amazing but he just knows but to make sure he knows I just want to put it out there that I absolutely love this guy. Couldn't ask for a better partner to tackle this adventure we all call life. Jealous I know. :)
I don't typically make it a point to spend special times with just one kid but this particular day I was able to hit lunch with just Emmi. We went to a Crepe place in the center of our town. She is the best lunch date since she will eat and try anything. Love her and need to do this again.
She also went to tennis camp last week with her best friend from preschool. It worked out great as the kids all came here to play one day after. Will have to make sure those playdates continue to happen since Brooke will be headed to a different school.
Long story short I have had a little bit of stress between work demands, life to then eating like crap which resulted in my immune system taking a hit. That went from poison ivy to ear infection then ultimately Shingles. Luckily I wasn't in any more pain than a bad sunburn so battled that back. Now I am back on track to eating healthy and working on making sure I get enough sleep. So what to do when you don't have enough going on... make jammie pants for the girls and headbands for me. Moo wanted in on the action so here she is cutting her stuff out.
My friend Erika who you can find her blog over there ->Cole's Train of Thought
Well she wrote a whole post about kindergarten where we are kinda at a lost for this big step since you are no longer in the KNOW. Yet I know in 4 weeks from now it will all be the new norm.... So we attend everything we can as well as read up on everything I can. Well I will say I have already been drafted for the PTO so hopefully I will be in the know. We also attended Emmi's kindergarten social. Here are the girlies enjoying ice creams.
The back pack is ready to go with a whole slew of other supplies. No one prepped me for how much this stuff costs. Lets just say sticker shock and I even braved shopping on Tax Free Weekend.
Friday is teacher meet & greet. They do a phase in week so Emmi will only go on Wednesday with some kids, Thursday will be Marli's meet & greet, then all kids Kindergarten will go next Friday. Then after labor day will be full steam ahead with both kids in school. I am grateful that we have great friends who we will be carpooling with this year. Our kids are at the same schools with the same teachers, go figure those odds, so that will help greatly.
