*Here is our version of the 1st day of school blog post. Only a week late, so not too bad.
|
Before school. |
|
After school with a smile! (which was totally short lived, since we suffer from after school meltdowns on the first week) |
*The other two were shipped off to Grampy and Mimi's house for a couple nights. Zack was out of town all week for meetings, so Ek and I got some time alone. I had a couple of glorious mornings on my own (hello target) and didn't have to worry about getting 3 kids shoved loaded into the car in the morning. It gave me a glimpse into the future, I must admit I like what I see. Although Zack apparently sees me with a paying job....

Betsy decided Mimi's glasses were a fashion must. I think she looks 12 here.. |

Max showing Grampy his parade of puzzles. |
*It was a good start to the first week, especially since we aren't the family that gets on a schedule BEFORE school. Maybe next year?
*Betsy and I headed to see Bud on Friday. It was the first trip without any other adult. I had to give myself a pep talk that I was 36 had 3 kids, surely I can drive several hours with only 1. Right? Right? We did great, loaded down with more snacks than a flipping grocery store and a selection of Christmas DVD's (Betsy's choice not mine) Bud was fantastic as usual, he checked and polished her eye. Betsy informed him of her plans for a teddy bear painted onto her next eye. Oh my. A quick stop at Target, removal of eye in Target (stinker turned it around) and then headed home. It was a long day, but good and now I have Christmas carols stuck in my head, thanks so much Max and Ruby.
Max and Ruby allll the way to KC? Ruby's voice... sounds like hours of torture! God love ya...
