Blogging.....



Well, we made it through Austin's first week of school! His teacher said it was a good week. It has been rough at home for him though,he is holding allot in to behave at school and then coming home to let it all out for me. Aren't I a lucky momma ;)?!I am just glad he is behaving for his teacher. He is talking so much more these days. Using new words and even phrases and complete sentences. I know he will improve even more with time and love to watch him grow.

Brooklyn has been loving her 2 and a half hour block alone with me. We are having her screened by the Gilbert School District and will go from there as far as preschool is concerned. She is a big help with her little brother and around the house and we appreciate it.

We are almost completely settled into this house,which is more than I can say for the last house. This one feels more like home. We all enjoy the fact that it only takes Ryan about 15 or 20 minutes to get home from work now. We also really like the area.

I think this is the first year we have actually watched the Olympics. We really like the gymnastics and swimming. Even the kids are enjoying it. I have never been so excited as I am for Michael Phelps. That man rocks!

Austin's First Day of Preschool!




Today is Austin's first day of school! He was so excited and I was so nervous. He goes in the mornings from 8 to 10:30 5 days a week. Ryan and I dropped him off today and he was so excited I had to chase him down to say my goodbyes,that's when my eyes watered,I can't believe how big he is getting. He still feels like my baby. They grow so fast. LOL! On another note I am wishing Austin's teacher the best of luck! With my little monkey added to her group she will have her hands full ;)

A Date!!


So, last night Ryan and I were really needing some alone time,no friends and no kids.We thought about who we could get to take our monkeys last minute on a Saturday night...We really don't have much of a selection in the babysitting department,but thought we would see if my Mom would brave it and take BOTH kids. She agreed to give it a try and I reassured her that if it wasn't working she could call us and we would come get them. We went to a movie(i checked my phone repeatedly) made it throughout the movie with no phone calls! WHOO HOOO!Then we went to Carraba's and shared spaghetti...it was so good :) We got to my moms shortly after 11,she said that the kids had been fine and I was soooo relieved. Thanks mom!
