You say its your birthday!

Happy 8th Birthday to Joshua Aidan!

The Rain

Its been off and on raining for two days now. Josh doesnt care one bit about the rain. If he wants to be outside hes going to outside. No little bit of rain is going to stop him. This is difficult to keep him in from the rain. He sneaks back out to play. Its a struggle.

smiles in the morning are the best!

Josh is so hard to wake up in the mornings. You never know what kind of mood he is going to be in. I usually go in his room every ten minutes to shake him up. But by 7:30 Im dressing him in bed while he tries to wake up. Today he was awake before I was and smiling. I love this! He got up just fine and got onto the bus giggling lol. I really love days like this. As for Matthew. Two weeks into school and I believe he is already finished with school lol. He's in middle school now and he has no recess and its the pits for him. Poor kid. Its going to be a long year for him.

Stay at home mama

So the kids are off to school. And I am now home alone. What to do, what to do.

School Starts

School started this morning. Matthew goes into middle school. He starts 6th grade today. Joshua starts 3rd grade. They both start a new school. Matthew was real nervous about starting this morning. I hope he does well. Getting Josh ready for the day seemed to be hard. He hates clothes so getting him dressed is always a problem. Things should return back to normal soon. I hope it all goes smoothe for us all.

Clothes

Well Josh is 7 years old and he refuses to put clothes on. It becomes a major meltdown to try to put clothes on this kid. He has been running around naked most the time. Unless of course if we go somewhere. I find him not wearing clothes totally unexceptable for his age. But it becomes a fight and he usually wins. I feel bad when I fight with him. School will be starting in a week and I am dreading getting him up and clothed in time for the bus to pick him up. When we go somewhere all we have to say is "want to go" and his ears purk up and he wants to get ready. Then its easy to get him dressed. So Im saving this "want to go" for school and hope it works lol. Have a good day :)
