The day has come... last day of fun summer for the boys :( but they are excited to start school again I think... hoping that we will have a good school year ahead of us, boys found out who their teachers were last night and saw rooms, etc... very hard for me to accept that Blade is going off to Preschool this year... where did the last 3 years go? He doesn't start though until Sept. 5th so I can prepare myself for that some more! When the day of Kindergarten comes I will be LOST!!! so thankfully its only two days a week at 1/2 days.
Well its been a LONG time since I last posted ... sorry about that, just crazy here! Well today is Wed., lots been done at the house this week... tile is going on in the upstairs bathroom... 3 out of 4 bedrooms are completely painted... they will do the last thing that has to be done in Issac's room tomorrow and then they will finish up the rest next week hopefully when Mitchel's room is "replastered"... they have to retexture his walls due to the plastering not sticking to wall :( Today gutters got on house... looks nice! the basement floors were coated with new cement, well I think that was done... not for sure... so hopefully lights can be installed soon and have some light action back upstairs:) Our room well is REALLY dramatic... but its cool! so unlike me to go that BOLD but I did it... and Blade's room turned out so CUTE... we took him up there last night so he could see the colors, his face was so darn CUTE... and he says "orange, WOW, and red and yellow" and then picked up the paint sticks that they used for stirring with the orange and red on them and just stands in the room and looks around... it was so CUTE!!! His favorite color is orange :) Just its getting exciting to see it all come together but have to keep the reality check going too... its going to be awhile before the "whole complete picture" is done.
I must say this week so far has been going well for my WW... got back on track... just need to stay focused, lots of fluids going in me this week.. hopefully I can weigh in tomorrow in DBQ since Mitchel has practice tomorrow night. Just need to pick up more exercising but I will get more of that in when the boys are back at school. So... Mel, sorry I wont see you tomorrow :(
Today Jer and I were off to find Mitchel a bed... still haven't found quite the right thing so we are going to look into having it made if its reasonable by a carpentar in town, the search however did get closer but its either the wrong color or too big or just something DUMB! Blade spent the day with us as well... he was very good overall... only had one incident when he was "attitude Blade" and was jumping on the beds at the stores, boys! The search for downstairs furniture started too but we are taking a lot of time and thought into this process and not rushing anything... $$$$ continues to talk :( high priority is upstairs and getting moved in soon.
Tonight, Mitchel had a Dyersville game, the kids sure did play hard but they lost... Mitchel had some really great plays, its so enjoyable to watch... just love being a soccer mom!!!
So anyhow... feeling stressed out lately... lots going on and school starting, its going to get me this way for awhile, but overall life is good!
