Ethan and Jake have now been in school for two weeks. Yeah! Ethan started 4th grade and Jake is in 3rd. On the first day they were soooo excited that they woke up at 5 am to get ready. Luckily I was still at work and Ben got to have fun with this! When I got home from work to help them get ready they were already dressed and had already had breakfast. Unfortunately they were dressed in summer play clothes. Yuck! I told them they had to wear something new-it's just something I grew up with-having new clothes on the first day. I guess boys don't care so much. After a little bit of grumbling we found some new clothes in the box of summer clothes for next year.(since I always buy a season ahead during the clearance sales) So hair was done, new shoes(even though it is 100 degrees still) and socks were chosen and they were ready- a little too early. This year I decided to have them be later gaters, much to Jakes despair. I just figured with the new baby and chores and piano practicing it would be easier. So far I love it. This morning we had time to catch up on homework that was not finished because of dentist appts,soccer practice and back to school night. It was nice. So now it's just Jocelyn and Riley at home. Poor Jocelyn wants to go to school so bad and I had a place picked but it ended up not working out so I'm on the hunt for a new school. She needs something!
So starts the new school year, craziness but fun. I love to see the excitement the boys show on their faces as they tell me about thier days and the friends they haven't seen over the summer. So next thing -a new baby. Although I'm not due till sept 23,I've started progressing and contracting, like usual. The doctor says in the next week-wow scarey, I've got tons to do!

If you end up having your baby before I have mine I will resent your uterus forever! Did you go early with all your kids? Man, they have to INDUCE me on the 4th because apparently my babies prefer to be on the inside. Nice.
