SAHM I AM

So.. it has been almost 3 months since my last post.

A lot has been going on. School started including for my 5 yr old. Yeah. She is loving it. She has *wet her pants(second day of school), thrown up on the bus, and had a ear infection. Poor girl has had a rough go but she is a trooper and loves to tell me about her girl friends and girly things. It is much different than the after school conversation with a boy.

*UPDATE FOR THOSE WHO KEEP READING THIS POST ABOUT WET PANTS.  Good news- she never did it after that first week.  I have gone through 3 kids now and all have gone through this step.  Most important thing I think is to not shame them, walk them through where the bathroom is, how they notify the teacher and that they shouldn't be embarrassed to go.  With Ari they had a hand symbol they were supposed to use and with her vision she couldn't really see what it was.  So we practiced and talked together to the teacher and then we didn't have anymore problems.  Clearly if your kid controls his bladder at home then there is something in the school environment that has stressed him out.  Figure out what that is and work to resolve it.  Goodluck!!

Chickens are laying eggs. We started with 15 chicks and we are now down to eight. I was not on board with this experiment at first but I am glad now. It has been fun to keep our fridge stocked with eggs from our own hens.

Matt is getting big and busy. He is trying to crawl and is already scooting around on his belly. He is a very cute boy. We have definitely been blessed

Overall, I feel way behind in life and I need to get caught up. At least I can say that I have made an effort on this blog. One thing checked off my list of like a million.
