Sorry no pictures for this post...I actually haven't taken much since school started. We're all trying to adjust to the new school schedule, including me. *Most of this post is me ranting so if you don't care to read it, stop here * I've been an emotional wreck since school started and I don't know why. Ashlyn is getting much better with the whole school idea. I only had to bribe her once (yesterday) to go to school and all she wanted was for me to take her to the mall after school (a girl after my own heart)! I have upped their bedtime to 8:00 and I try to pump her up for school in the mornings. I have her draw her teacher or friends a picture to take to school and let her pick out part of her outfit that she wants to show someone. Today, it was her Hannah Montanah t-shirt. She loves it. The only part that is hard now is that Ashlyn misses playing with Rielyn in the afternoons. She literally asks every 5 minutes how much longer until we pick her up. I probably should have put her in afternoon Pre-K because the mornings go by so much quicker. Oh well...hopefully she'll get used to it soon. Rielyn is LOVING school, she tells me every day how much she loves it...she is adjusting just fine, and I knew she would. Sonshine school starts next week too (I have taken the last year of teaching off). Normally I would be very excited about this, but I'm kind-of up in the air about how I feel. On the one side, I will get to be around other adults 2 days a week which is good...but I am also losing my "free time" those 2 days. I've really enjoyed the last year spending the two days with just Kellan (I've done this with all three kids) and we have gotten so close and thats going to be another hard part about going back. Nathan has been working a whole bunch lately too. His boss put him down in Purcell (an hour away) for a month or two and he gets home really late. Oh and Katie, my little sister who has been living here all summer (and helping me out big time) moved back on campus this week too. Too much change for us all at once, I guess. I know it's all going to work out and like the kids...I just need to adjust to the new schedule. Anyways, that's about all that's happening around here...just a whole bunch of adjusting. Sorry about the rant...I hope to post something cute and exciting next time!

Let's get together some afternoon! Katie really misses Noah too. Mon or Wed are best for me.
I put Jacob in afternoon with much reluctance...since Jason can't drive and I am sooo glad I did. Jacob is having a hard time adjusting since he usually naps. You will make it. Hugs and Prayers to you. Let me know if I can help some afternoon!
Let us know if you need anything! We are always up for a playdate!
I am going through the same adjustment! I cried on Thrusday after exercise class because it was the last week that I would be able to attend the class. I felt like a moron! Kate and Laura just stared at me!
