This is the last week of summer for all the school aged kids around here. I am so excited I could jump up and down and squeal! This means that we can actually take the Littles to do fun stuff and enjoy ourselves without crowds!!! SCORE!
I printed out our calendar for September and was pretty overwhelmed to find we literally only have two days (during the week) off. One of which is a holiday, the 3rd and the other is the 28th. Starting September 6th the kids will be back in preschool two times per week and of course they have therapy two times a week as well. They also have a couple of follow up yearly doctor appointments in September as well. I think I've decided to follow the school district meaning when school is out we won't have therapy and will actually have the day off too. The preschool follows the school districts calendar so all that will be missed is therapy. The kids will thank me for doing this. But in all honesty, their schedules are brutal and I can't keep them busy 24/7 like that.
Yesterday we slept in!!! Love those days. Not that the kids wake up early but is sure is nice to sleep past 8:30. It was tax free weekend this weekend and diapers are included in that. We went to Sam's and stocked up. $189 dollars later I wanted to cry on the way out to the parking lot. It pains me to spend that on diapers! Someone please send the potty training fairy to our house and quick!
Today flew by as always. Sundays seem to be chore day for us. Yay! Says no one ever!
Our vacation is getting closer! I'm so excited and have started talking to the kids about it. Brody actually said "beach" today! I can't wait to let my babies experience a real beach and for me to get some pretty pictures!
I'm going to attempt to get their two year old pictures again. I spent a small fortune on their birthday outfits so I really want to have their pictures made in them. I'll post how that goes but wish us luck!
We bought the girls their first pair of diamond earrings last week. We've gone back and forth on the size, not wanting to go to big and look gaudy. Luckily our jeweler helped us out and we finally bought the perfect sets. They will be ready early this week. We had to get special backs put on since both girls are pros and taking earrings off. I will die if these disappear!
That is all for now.
