Y'all, we are so in love with this little girl! The kids adore her and Ricky and I can't get enough of her. Look at those sweet little feet. Pure perfection! She is the BEST baby. Life is pretty amazing.
Brody and Gracie have their last week of school this coming week. We had their ARD a week ago and I'm really excited about the changes for them next school year. They will be in Pre K not PPCD which is general education and "regular" peers. I love the goals the school has in place because they seem challenging. For instance, they have a math goal where they will have to match 5 blocks to the number 5, etc. Fingers crossed we can get Madi into Pre K too. It's really hard because they go by income unless the school makes an exception.
School starts back for me on Monday. Very bittersweet. I know I have to go back so I'm ready to start SHSU in the fall but I've only been away from Truette for an hour since she has been born and I didn't like it one bit! I have no clue how I'm going to adjust to being away. I seriously miss her if I'm not holding her in our own house or if we have to drive somewhere, she is buckled in the back and I'm not holding her... I know, that sounds crazy but this is my very last baby ever and she is already 3 weeks 1 day old!
Ricky is doing good. His classes start in July so he has a couple more weeks to go.
Today is my Dad's birthday. He would have been 57 years old. It's sad that he has 11 grandkids and only 3 got to meet him. I hope I mean as much to my kids and he does to me. Even after all these years he is still missed and loved so very much.
Madi has T-ball in the morning. I hope the rain stays away. We'll all be out there cheering her on and laughing our tails off!
Oh, I have been out in public by myself with all the kids 3 times now. The first was last Saturday, we had to run to Hobby Lobby to get some stuff for pictures. It went well but I really wish they made buggies bigger. Brody had his GI appointment Tuesday afternoon so I had to do that by myself since Ricky had to go to work. It was a LOT of work only because the appointment wait time is so long and you can only keep the kids occupied so long. On the way there, Truette started choking so I had to pull over and help her. That made me a nervous wreck on the way home so Ricky bought a little mirror so I can see her while driving. She of course did great during the appointment and slept the entire time- she is just that good, really! Anyway, we survived the outings and I'm getting the hang of it. Sometimes you just have to jump in and know drowning isn't an option. That's how I handle things anyway.
