school days

Monday brought much tears and fighting as the kids didn't want to get up early and start getting ready for school, especially since they didn't really have anywhere to go. They spent the whole day home with Donna.

Tuesday was up early again but this time at least the kids had dentist appointments. Thank God for Donna as Nick and Christi had to work. All three kids had a good exam no cavities. It is possible that Naya is missing a set of permanent teeth. The dentist wasn't completely sure because her x-rays were blurry, It's kind-of hard to x-ray a not quite three year olds mouth. We will have to wait to see for when she is big enough to take clear x-rays. Dreigan also so had scouts. The finale meeting before the advancement ceremony, if you re going to be there please let me know.

Wednesday brought a stay home day for Nick, Dreigan, Fionna and Naya. The last day of summer vacation. Naya decided to entertain us with a 15-20 minute oration. We were able to catch part of it on the digital camera.



Thursday brought Dreigan's first day. We are very proud of him. Despite his protestations he got himself on the bus on time without any adult prompting. Nick and Christi had already gone to work and he let Donna sleep. There was also a meeting with Fionna's Kindergarten teacher Ms Mary. It went okay, Fionna likes her and that is what matters. Christi also had Roundtable, adult boy scouts, in order to get popcorn information. That's right popcorn time is here so be prepared Dreigan will be asking if you want some. I am also told to tell Paul to get his butt back in scouts.

Friday brought Fionna's first day in Kindergarten. Can you believe it. She came home just bubbling and so excited.

Saturday the kids spent the night with Cathy and Steve, giving Nick and Christi some much needed alone time.

Sunday was Steve's birthday so to celebrate we went to Cathy and Steve's for dinner. It was so good. Happy birthday Steve. We love you.

Wow! Do we have a future politician in the family? She looks like she is working on a good old fashion filibuster.

Dreigan and Fionna looked great for their first day of school.

Loved the monologue. She certainly isn't inhibited, is she? What a time you've had. It is exhausting to me to just read about it. Take good care and keep adding to this wonderful blog. I've tried to tell friends whose daughters are having babies about doing this...but so far no luck. Hi to Nick, kids and cats. Love ya.
