It's been a little hectic the past few weeks and the blog has been somewhat on autopilot. I appreciate all the comments and I hope to catch up with everyone this week.
So what's been going on? School and illness. Lets start with school.
Smarty Pants started school a couple of weeks ago. He was anxious about starting Kindergarten, but after the first day he proudly proclaimed that he just "LOOOOOOVES" school. He just completed his second week and the love is still there. Phew, big sigh of relief!
So while Smarty Pants was thoroughly enjoying his new endeavors, his 3 year old brother was left a little lost and confused. So I had to be the stand-in brother-- I was playing lots of bubbles, play doh, trucks and was even coaxed into riding my 5 year olds scooter (thank goodness I didn't break it!) He adores his big brother and looks to him for all things fun, rambunctious and naughty. Luckily Happy Vee starts preschool this coming week and he's really looking forward to it (we did a trial run on Thursday and he had a great time!). Just need to work on the potty training... Gah!
We also had a nasty stomach bug that passed through our home of the 24 hour variety. Lysol and I are now good friends. Thank goodness it's on its way out-- you remember that pie eating scene in the movie Stand by Me? I shall elaborate no further. Both are on the mend and hopefully everyone will be healthy (the boys) and well-rested (me) by Monday.
Hope you're having a great weekend!
