Hanging out at the park til time to get C for the ortho

 so I know I'm not a posting diva these days. this is the first time I've been at the puter today and the kids will be home soon and I still dont have anything out for dinner. :P

garretts had a bad school week. I mentioned in stacy's journal that monday they called me to come pick him up. he was wreaking havoc and had only been there about an hour! throwing shoes, running out of the classroom and down the hall, trying to pull the fire alarm, etc. what a mess. they've never called to have him taken home. yesterday was better, he got 2 of 4 stars, but today he got 1 of 4. :P they're hoping he's just readjusting to being back in school and it'll all kick in soon. I do too. he's not out of reason here at home, so I guess he saves a lot of it for them.  he looks forward to going to school though, doesnt complain at all. 

monday was just a BAD day. C went in late casue of an upset tummy, K wanted to stay home, but she'd been recovering all weekend so I sent her on. Gav's nurse called from school cause he was nauseous, then the call about Garrett. argh!
the good part was my mom came to clean my house that day.  so at least my house was clean! LOL!

I did get the kids entry area walls done today. waiting to make sure the paint is dry before snapping a pic.

havent been able to go to the gym like I want since school started.  been hard to get there at all really. I've been a few times, but never for as long as I need. ugh.

some other awesome news I got yesterday is that my younger sister is pg!!! this is awesome cause they've been trying for 5 years and have gone through several fertility treatments. this cycle though she was waiting to start her meds cause she just felt like she was going to start af. well, the test popped up immediately when she tested! her EDD is the beginning of April! Sarina gets a birthday buddy!!

sarina has done really well with her pottying this week (after a horrible monday, of course LOL) she's even gone there herself today and called me when she was done (to my surprise). still waiting for that poop on the potty, but hey, we're saving diapers no matter.

Great first day of school! H has gav's 3rd gr teacher, Gav has his fav teacher, and the big kids didnt complain (much).
She made it to 130 before having an accident. Not bad :)

the kids took forever to go to sleep last night. the boys at least, K was knocked out quick as usual. they were up easy this morning though, jabbering like chickens 
they did wake Garrett up, but no biggie. he'll be getting up with them next week. it'll be a new schedule again for us!

hey, did I mention I now have a housekeeper??!! ok, its just my mom, but its what she does for part time work.  I officially hired her (though she said she'd do it for nothing) and she'll come once or twice a month to help set my house in order!  she does an awesome job, dont know how she does it, but I want it more often.  too bad that gene didnt rub off on me huh? 

Sarina is going diaper free for now. I'm out of diapers and she tends to remember to potty if she's in the flesh. LOL no accidents so far, but I'm not expecting it to stay that way.

Sitting at the 8th grade open house

Wow

Can't believe the kids start school in two days. The summer went by fast, but it was a good one. My babies are growing up so fast it brings tears to my eyes. We're super proud of all six of them too! We've been truly blessed with some wonderful kids. Thank you Jesus!

I must admit

Finding apps for an iPod is fun :)
