Back to school and lots of others!!!!!





Ah... Back to school i thought i would be so excited that they were going back since they were making me absolutely crazy last week with torchering each other but alas, i'm at home crying missing them!!! Some times i wonder if there is something wrong with me!!! I'm sure they are doing fine and having a good time so i will try to chill out and play with the kids i have at home still. This year Creedance got Mrs. Stanger as a first grade teacher! We hear she is awesome and Tyler knew her when he was younger, so her year should be great! Doesn't she look so cute in her new outfit! Topher is in Mrs. Andrus' class this year! We hear she is kind of strict but that she really pushes the kids and Topher really needs to be pushed so that school isn't so boring. So hopefully he does well in her class. It was raining this morning pretty good so we started are pic's inside!But the rain stopped just enough to get some pictures outside! Then they threw on their jacktets, and they are still young enough that they let me walk them over to the school and get them into the gym to find there teachers! First day of school must always be crazy!!!Ok, on to a different topic than school so that i will think about something else! Topher is in scouting!!!!! He doesn't turn 8 until November but the scout leader invited him to start coming this summer! He loves it, and has already earned a bunch of the awards or whatever you would call them!! He has a great leader and i'm sure he is learning alot! He thinks that now that he is a scout he should get a pocket knife for his birthday!One of Pearson's new hang out spots is in the dryer! He thinks it is soooo cool and and a great place to hang out. He loves to climb in and out and in and out. And i am left trying to get the dry clothes out inbetween and then have to fight for it to get the wet clothes in and be able to close the door!! It is sure a good thing he is sooooo cute!!!Now on to Pearson's Birthday! Yes i found the pictures and am actually getting around to blogging about it. Although it will now be hidden under the back to school name, i'm just excited that i am getting it done. The day of Pearson's birthday he was quite happy and fun. We put him down for a nap though right before his party and he woke up quite the bear. He kept crying and pulling at his ear and did not want me to put him down at all. The presents seemed cool but i was not allowed to go very far and he would growl at the other kids if they got to close!!! He loved all his gifts!! Thanks everyone!This year i did a monkey theme for him!!! The cake turned out pretty good, if i do say so myself. Pearson thought it was good to! I had to keep putting more and more on his plate or he would scream if there was not a piece there that he could grab!!!This was probably his favorite part of the whole night!!! He loves baths!!! And the new bath toys just made it that much better!!!!The next day I was able to get a picture of him in his monkey birthday hat!(this was after taking him to the doctor where we found out he did not have an ear infection)The kids thought the monkey hats were the greatest and i had a bunch of monkey clowns running around for the next couple of days.

T.j. doesn't start preschool until the middle of next week so i'm sure i'll post about that and creedance's dance stuff as soon as i get some more pictures.

Bad Mom!!!!

So to start out with i have to tell you about a conversation that i overheard with some kids T.j. was playing with today!
So t.j. was walking up the stairs at dance tech and i was at the top! this is what i heard.
Little Boy 1: "So what is wrong with your foot?"
Little Boy 2: " Well his dad was kind of mad and he cut it off like this" Said while acting if sawing off T.j.'s foot!
I laughed so hard! Most people would think that is horrible but i loved the smile on T.j.'s face as the other kid just stared amazed! I hope T.j. set him straight but i'm not sure he did. Hope the kid doesn't have nightmares! Hopefully he is just really good for his dad from now on!!

So the plan was to post the rest about Pearsons Birthday and other fun things that we have been up to but Pearson won't stop screaming and i can't get the pictures to load onto the computer so alas as a bad mom would do would be to keep postponing and hope to post the pictures of his birthday before he turns two!!! I'm off to put kids to bed!!
