I don't even know where to begin... Summer came to a close. We hit up the pool as much as we could and on a weekend drew was gone I took the kids to the zoo. It was HOT and I sweated so much that I truly was embarrassed! A gray shirt was a bad choice that day! But spider-man was there and the boys thought it was the greatest thing that had ever happened to them so it was worth it! G got another cast put on and his arm healed great. We just got his 2nd cast off and we found a penny in it! We had to peal it off with a thin layer of skin. G later admitted he meant to put the penny in his cast and that he thought it would be funny! And it was! Mac went to 'back to school night'. I cried like a baby and he was proud that he could pump higher than the older boys next to him. I heard him say " wait, I'm younger than you and look how much higher I am" already starting the smack talk:) Mac's first 2 weeks of school were a little rough. I was second guessing
my choice of sending him to full day kindergarten. He was homesick and
just plain tired. I took the kids to eat lunch with him to make it
easier on him. This week was totally different. He's loved school and
doesn't seem exhausted when he's home! I think it just took some time to
get use to the schedule. Our garden has produced so much this year. I loved it. G loved picking the vegetables but not eating them and Mac and drew are sick of them! I just finished canning salsa and I don't mean to toot my own horn but it turned out amazing! Canning, it's super rewarding- spoken by a true domesticated woman! Annie has been a little firecracker, nothing new. The other day I found her in the closet on the top shelf, crap! She's learned and perfected climbing! She's gotten to the point that she'll sit long enough to be read to! She loves books! Last week we got our first non family visitor- they're really family! But sis. Henshaw and emo stopped in for one night on their way to Washington dc. I love these women and it was great to have them in our home! 2 weeks ago I ran the mid summer night 5k. Loved having my family cheer me on, didn't love the fact that there were 5000 runners. Lots of weaving but so much fun! well, I think that's everything:).... oh and we caught a skunk instead of a pesky raccoon! It was a stinky, expensive mistake!
