Tomorrow is the first day of school! WOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! I was chatting with a friend this morning and she was saying that she overheard one woman ask another, "Are you looking forward to school starting?" and the woman replied that she really wasn't. Of course, this led to the question, "How can you NOT be excited about school starting back up?!?!?!?!?" That's when she realized that the woman in question was a teacher. LOL
My friend, Tracey, said that on the first day of school, she and friends had a "mother's day" celebration. They dropped their kids off at school, then sat around playing poker and drinking all day. Sounds like a good start to the school year. lol
I can't believe my girls are getting so big. Caitlin's in third grade and Emma's in first! I just don't feel old enough to have kids those ages! Cole will be starting Kindergarten next year, then Ethan the next. Crazy...just crazy. We went and got all of their back to school supplies today. They got new clothes and shoes a couple of weeks ago. Short of a new backpack for Caitlin, I think we're set!
Sera has been a real handful lately. I don't know what is up with her, but she just won't stop screaming. She went from this perfect little angel who NEVER cried, to this needy, whiny toddler who never STOPS crying. I'm about at wits end. It's driving me crazy! I don't know how we're going to handle her at Disneyland next week! I'm just hoping all of the stuff will keep her interest and give her something to do other than scream. I'll have her in the stroller, so she should just be able to fal asleep when she gets tired...we'll see if that actually happens though. She rarely goes to sleep without a fight. Speaking of fight...she does something that I find really cute. Drake finds it a bit irritating, but I think it's adorable. If I try to hug Drake, she gets all pissed and pushes me away from him. I think she thinks she owns him. She'll scream and just push me until I'm no longer touching him, then she'll grab his legs, ask to be picked up, lay down on him, whatever...just to establish that he's hers. LOL Sometimes I'll hug him just to irritate her.
So, DISNEYLAND next week!!! YIPPPEEEEEE!!!! Goodness, I love that place! I'm so excited. (Like you couldn't tell or something lol) I feel like a little kid. I bet you anything I won't be able to sleep the day before we go. LOL I'm such a dork. So, who wants a postcard? lol
Since I don't own a pair of prescription sunglasses and I'm pretty much blind without my glasses, I think I'm going to buy a hat for our trip. I'm concerned that I'll look like a total dork in a hat though. (Yes, I realize that we've established that I actually
am a total dork, but I don't have to
look like one as well!) According to
someone I know, visors went out in the 80's. I think I want one though. lol I think I'll head on over to Pac Sun while the girls are in school tomorrow to see what I can find :D I think I saw a cute camo Roxy visor that I might just try on :)
