First Day of School

The summer some how has passed us by!! It was a hot summer and we really didn't do anything that exciting, but it was still fun and nice to have Taylor home!!
So here's a picture of Taylor's first day in Second Grade!


She had a good day. The one thing that bothered her was that her teacher didn't bring her out for dismissal, one of the other teachers did that. And she's worried about the fire drill again....
But, luckily we haven't had any tears at drop off..so far....
She said she cried a little after I left yesterday, but she was okay.

The boys got to sleep late yesterday because Jeremy has Monday's off....and this morning was so hard to get them up and going!!! Will even fell asleep on the trip to the post office!!
Okay, mom duty calls....blogging will have to wait til later!!! =)

Oops!! I did it again.

I give up on trying to cut the boys hair on my own! Well, maybe now that I know how to use the clippers on it. Anyway, I gave them new cuts.....My mom took the clippers to fix my job that wasn't very good in the first place.... Drake's is much shorter than I like it, but it looks cute at least!!! (the picture's not that great...but here it is.....)


Will's is good, it's just how I wanted it, but couldn't quite achieve it because I was to afraid of messing up!!
Taylor had her last basketball game yesterday. She was soooo excited about getting the trophy. The coach always tried to get the team to pass the ball to her when they could so she could score (she is pretty good at making the basket) but I don't think she scored once!! She really didn't care though all she cared about was her team winning (which they were pretty good, and I would say they won the majority of the games....but they didn't keep score and I didn't pay that much attention to that detail either...) So if anyone on her team would score she would celebrate like it was her basket she just made!!! She loved playing basketball!! =) I see it in our future....hehehhe

Random Thoughts

Just some happenings going on right now. Taylor has decided it's fun to dress the boys for me. It's nice, but it's not what I would pick to put on them...and for some reason she always has to put a jacket on Drake, I have to remind her that it's 99 degrees outside and I don't want him in a jacket....oh well. At least she is trying to help!! =)
Potty training is not going well with Will. He just won't do it. He knows what he needs to do, but won't. Drake on the other hand has started telling me when he needs to be changed, so I think I'm going to really focus on him for a while.
And now for the tough issues...I am really thinking hard about sending Will to Pre K. I don't have any idea where yet, but I'm trying to decide if it's worth it. He gets the social outlet he needs during the school year, when we go to ladies bible class and MOPS, but am I a bad mom for not sending him, when it seems like everyone is doing it....but since when do I have do what everyone else is doing anyway....and then there's the whole potty training issue....I don't know.....So anyway that's pretty much it for now...School starts soon so life is going to get really busy again....Kinda excited, kinda not, kinda tired just thinking about it!!!!
More pictures coming soon....I hope, I need to look thru what I have taken and take some more!!!heheh
