First “Official” First Day

Last year we had Andrew in the Pre-preschool class. It was mainly 3 and 4 year-olds. Yesterday, he had his first official day as a Preschooler. He was glad to have a few of his friends from last year's class in his class this year. He got to see his old teachers, who both stopped … Continue reading First “Official” First Day →

Week in Review – We Need Two

After an almost 5 hour rain delay, my Tigers dropped game 3 of the ALDS. The Mariners beat them 8-4 yesterday. If they lose this afternoon, they are done. If they win, they still have to take game 5. I am still hopeful for them to advance to the ALCS. I doesn't look good, though. … Continue reading Week in Review – We Need Two →

What’s Been Going On

This past weekend was a busy one.  Once again Ella had soccer.  Watching these gals play is so fun.  I'm not sure why they all want to be the goalie.

Life’s Little Moments

Looking back at the past seven days, it's been busy! Still Kickin' We had some issues with the soccer league that we signed Andrew up for.

Friday Photo Flashback

Yesterday, I blogged about my daughter's first day of Preschool. She is having so much fun there. She is making friends and sharing stories about her day, which has been awesome to listen to. One thing I didn't do was get a picture of her and I together. She was probably "pictured out" by the … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback →

Another Milestone

It's going to be hard going back to work today.  I took a couple extra days off because Ella started Preschool.  Friday, the teachers did a home visit at our house. She was excited to meet them. It was a half hour visit to answer questions about her likes and dislikes and to get to … Continue reading Another Milestone →
