Where did summer go?

Why is it with the kids back in school I am busier than before? Seems I spend most of my day in the car picking up and dropping kids and doing errands. And when I am home it is time to play catch-up with house keeping and laundry. But I know I am not the only Mom to feel this way.

The boys' birthday was good. We had their big party 10 days after their actual birthday due to my Mom's chemo. And now I am discovering the joy of stepping on those tiny little lego pieces!

Been busy with Monkey B. Doc appointments, speech appointments and trying to get his IPP set-up. I just want to get the poor kid the help he needs!

Hamster is potty trained!!!! Yay!!! We have done 7 straight years of diapers in this house. Yes you read that right. 7. Straight. YEARS! And while he is not too keen on going to pre-school (oh the tears!) He seems to have fun while there.

Peanut is loving Kindergarten. He is just so excited to go everyday!

We have both older boys in Beavers. Hoping the social interaction helps Monkey B. And gives them both a sense of community. Besides they look adorable in their vests and hats!

Weather here in Alberta has sucked the last few weeks. Rain and cold (& sometimes snow!!!). Looking good for this week-end though. Having a garage sale and hoping to get rid of a lot of toys. Sad to get rid of the baby toys though. Not so sad to see the loud, noisy ones go!

My Mom is done her chemo and is doing better. It was a tough summer for everyone. We were up there quite often for DH to mow their lawn (think acerage!)

Off to take Peanut to K! Hope everyone has a good rest of the week!
